Trump 100 Day Approval Rating Lowest in 80 Years: ABC Poll
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
If a shocking new poll is to be believed, the honeymoon for President Donald Trump is very much over — as his second term hits the 100-day mark.
According to a poll out early Sunday from ABC News, the Washington Post and Ipsos, just 39 percent of respondents said they approve of Trump's job performance, while a whopping 55 percent said they disapprove. The previous low watermark for a president roughly 100 days into his term — in polls dating back to 1945 — was 42 percent, also set by President Trump in 2017.
The economy played a big role in the dismal poll numbers. The survey found 72 percent of respondents believe it's either very or somewhat likely that Trump's economic policies will cause a recession. In all, 73 percent consider the economy to be in bad shape, and 53 percent say it has gotten worse on Trump's watch. And only 31 percent believe Trump's argument that there will be a long-term payoff to his tariff strategy.
But the economy was just one metric on which the president was given a poor grade by respondents. Trump also came up short on questions pertaining to the rule of law and scope of government power — with 62 percent saying the president doesn't respect the rule of law, and 58 percent saying they are concerned he will do too much to reduce the size and role of government.
Trump voters, however, aren't going so far as to want a re-do. The poll said just six percent of Trump voters regret their ballot, while 94 percent said voting for Trump was "the right thing to do." And a plurality of respondents trust Trump over Democrats to deal with the nation's problems — as 37 percent trust Trump, and a dismal 30 percent trust Democrats in Congress.

trumpski's approval ratings are in the toilet, which is where he belongs ...
you hold his head in the bowl and I'll flush
"And hope to never again"
It is likely that Trump has the lowest approval rating after 100 days in over 100 years. They say 80 because that is when polling began.
"The poll said just six percent of Trump voters regret their ballot, while 94 percent said voting for Trump was "the right thing to do." And a plurality of respondents trust Trump over Democrats to deal with the nation's problems — as 37 percent trust Trump, and a dismal 30 percent trust Democrats in Congress."
Numbers don't lie
“Numbers don't lie…”
While trump lies on every occasion on every subject…and still his apologists refuse to acknowledge it. That says more about his sycophantic cultists as his lack of character, empathy, and understanding is pathetically established.
They say that Richard Nixon, after Watergate, after being threatened wit certain impeachment, resigned,
and admitted guilt and accepted a pardon, still had a die hard aprroval rating of 12%
Trump's die hard approval rating was described as 14.95% this week.
Some people will never let go or be convinced that the world is not flat...
This is the lack of critical thinking showing clear. These voters can see —if they were to let their critical thinking dominate their partisan politics and confirmation bias— that Trump was a terrible choice. But just as we observe daily, partisanship and confirmation bias are very powerful, stubborn factors.
It continues to amaze and disappoint me when I see people absurdly exaggerate the bad of the Ds and ignore/downplay/rewrite the bad of Trump.
Trump allows people with a "grievance" against the 21st century to enjoy the fact that he is punishing "their" enemies. But at the same time they know in their hearts he is a piece of crap.
They sure are
Welcome to American todays politics. I am confident Trump supporters and plenty of people with great critical thinking skills feel the same way about people that spend all their time and energy bashing everything Trump does or says as they downplay or ignore every thing the dems do.

In a just world Trump would be in prison right now. The evidence that he tried to subvert the results of the 2020 election is overwhelming.
And yet you cannot provide any of that overwhelming evidence
The evidence is overwhelming and has been delivered repeated in the media for years and right here on this site for years.
What do you hope to gain by pretending that you have never seen it? Everyone knows that you have.
Bottom line, defending Trump by pretending there is no evidence of his wrongdoing is pointless.
Bullshit, if it was, Trump would have been convicted of a lot more than those fake, progressively created misdefelony’s.
You have never given the slightest indication that you have any idea what you are talking about concerning the 2020 election or Jan 6th.
Trump never went to trial on his election interference because the right wing Supreme Court gave him immunity.
Wrong but no sense debating that with you here.[✘]
This is just too ridiculous for words. Denying that Trump tried to steal the 2020 election through fraud, coercion, lying, and incitement is a perfect litmus test for blind partisan denial of reality.
[deleted][✘]
Guess not. Seems you managed to find some.
Give me ring when your pipe dream comes to fruition and Trump actually gets convicted of any of that. And it sure as shit isn’t for lack of trying. In the meantime Dems can keep making shit up like the misdefelonys they convicted him of.
Get some!

I would ask you to provide some evidence that Trump is innocent of what Jack Smith charged him with but none of us will live long enough to see that happen.
Was he convicted? No! Next ….. Maybe the left can create another new charge category. Meanomeanor. That could stick ….
Sooner, rather than later, reality, if it hasn't creeped in already, is going to find you, and so many others who pulled it like wool over your eyes as you hid under the covers or maybe three sheets to the broken wind up toys for girls and some boys, and see the reality that the UnSupremes did pull off by taking and holding Trumps immunity case for as long as it took, so ALL Americans couldn't get a good look, for the POS Crook, they protected while they're now also knocked up, and like Trump, on the hook(er). History will and should not be kind to all of the enablers of the disablers, which includes the entire Republican party hearty Sparty....
Yeah, yeah, yeah …… echo’s of 2016. We’ve heard it before.
Gonna take awhile to fix all damage done the last four years from your boy blue Biden but it will happen. Short of another 100 year catastrophe Trump will do fine and left wing loons will need to shift their derangement to something else.
Maybe all y’all can try to run Hobby Lobby and Chick-fil-a out of business again. Better luck this time.
Many on the left thought their made for prime time TV extravaganza would prove their case for them instead of making them look like fools.
Another person who literally knows nothing about the J6 findings.
Opinions vary.
What is Foolish, is commenting on something you didn't, because you werent allowed to watch them, as in the hearings. Because when under oath, 90% of GOP witnesses all confessed to a plot pushed by the LIES pushed bY Trump and Fox, which has to pay 3/4's of a BILLION DOLLARS OVER SAID LIES !
Democrats have been "investigating" Trump for almost a decade now and the best they come up with are misdemeanor charges with an expired statute of limitations inflated to "felonies".
Yet no "evidence" has been presented.
A key litmus test for blind partisanship is the denial of Trump's many wrongdoings when he tried to steal the 2020 election.
Yet no "evidence" has been presented. Just partisan opinion.
Do you actually think that posting a comment claiming there is no evidence that Trump tried to steal the 2020 election accomplishes anything?
You might as well claim there is no evidence that Trump lies.
It is a sad state when Trump supporters resort to oblivious ‘arguments’ rather than honestly deal with overwhelming facts that destroy their ‘argument’.
He prefaces nearly every appearance in how he was wronged. The documented call to Georgia election officials is evidence enough…if one has a care to have any semblance of credibility.
No "evidence" has been presented. Just partisan opinion.
I never said he didn't lie. I just don't freak out, set my hair on fire and shriek about them as the volume you do.
Lets see them. Link them.
Some still think Mexico is gonna pay for that wall, unless, they already paid it off and are now paying off our debt to China. The denial of things we see Trump say and do, is what truly concerns me. They REFUSE to admit what is so damn counter to actuality sometimes, because Trump said something else, even as the watch it with their own eyes, then Trump does not even try to disguise his mountan of fckn LIES, and they buy and defend his Bullshit. It truly is cultesque, and that should concern ALL OF US !
He prefaces nearly every appearance in how he was wronged.
And it gets the results, I imagine, he's looking for. It sets you all off on a shrieking hissy fit.
Evidence of a phone call. What did the investigation turn up?
What are you even stating ?
It's in plain english.
Forget it Jeremy, I posted evidence repeatedly for about a year prior to the election. You ignore it and them obtusely ask for evidence. Who do you think you are fooling?
There are some comments on this site that should be summarily deleted on sight by the RA.
is one of them.
Why is that John?
Is asking for proof of something you claim out of bounds.
Do you disapprove of someone challenging your world view so you want them censored for doing so?
LOL. Tig and I, and some others , have been posting the evidence against Trump accumulated by the J6 committee regarding the 2020 election for YEARS now. I imagine there have been upwards of a thousand comments on that topic posted on this forum.
And you and Jeremy and a couple others keep saying "show us the evidence". THAT IS 100% TROLLING. Be happy NT allows trolling.
If you want to dispute the evidence against Trump on the J6 issues, then dispute it with counter arguments not with "show us the evidence". You have been shown the evidence, countless times. ANY post on NT claiming that the evidence against Trump has not been shown here is trolling. End of story.
And yet you cannot provide any of that overwhelming evidence
You can lead a magatard to evidence, but you can’t make them acknowledge it.
Donald Trump approved a plan to have Mike Pence declare him the winner of the election. There is much more to it than that but that is the bottom line. And Trump was still pushing the plan while the riot was taking place.

It amazes me at how some characterize conservative voters when they gave the bozo in office the previous four years a total kitchen pass.

Same basic crap: an allegation based on a lie of absurd exaggeration.

And absurd exaggerations

as 37 percent trust Trump, and a dismal 30 percent trust Democrats in Congress.
So less than a third trust the government. IMO that is higher than it should be. To paraphrase a quote from American president "To many politicians are too busy trying to keep their job than do their job" Add trying to get a soundbite on cable news along with trying to keep their job.
If this poll holds true, I might have to
change my moniker....
As I said many times before the election, Trump was the better choice. Apparently a lot of voters still agree with that sentiment. No one should be surprised by Trump's unpopularity. Trump did not pander and promise to use the government treasury buy popular support. That alternative was not viable.
And Trump really had no choice but to go too far in cutting government, expelling illegal immigrants, and correcting failed trade policies. Trump had no other choice than to act fast and go too far. Trump only had 100 days to do everything before the opposition could regain their footing and continue to sell out and harm the United States. We're witnesses to the desperate attempts to find divisive issues that can be churned into unrest, protest, and political violence.
The comforting fact from the poll is that the same voters who recognized Trump was the better choice also recognize that Democrats are the greatest threat. Trump is still trusted more than Congressional Democrats. It appears unlikely the country will quickly return to the progressive liberal status quo that destroyed hope and prosperity for so many Americans.
Utter nonsense.
Trump is not a dictator, he should have worked with Congress , both sides, to find a consensus on how to deal with legitimate issues. He cant do that because psychologically he has to be in total charge. He says jump and you say "how high". That is not how America should operate, and now we see the chaos. Do you want to live in a United States that is in constant chaos? Donald Trump is a criminal, and thus there will NEVER be a rallying around him. NEVER.
Do you really think that was/is possible?
You mean, Trump should have given Democrats an opportunity to shut down Congress with Senate filibusters? That has been the status quo political game since Bill Clinton played with cigars in the West Wing cloak room.
No, there won't be a rally around Trump. The opposition will ramp up the division for the mid-terms and likely succeed. But Trump has already changed the nature of the win. The big political battles for the future will be about rebuilding what has been destroyed. As we've observed, Democrats are too divided over their priorities to avoid a lot of backbiting and infighting.
Rebuilding will require a lot more than fearmongering, gaslighting, civil unrest, and political violence. Trump will still hold the veto pen for the next 3 years and 8 months. Even the expediency of eliminating the Senate filibuster can't overcome the veto pen. Democrats may be racing into a mine field and find they're trapped with no escape.
Donald Trump is a criminal. So far enough Americans have ignored that fact so he has been able to get back in power. He is also mentally disturbed, and this is completely obvious. He has as much business being president as the president in the movie Idiocracy. This is not sustainable at all, and will provide endless chaos. People who think a Trump presidency will lead to a better America are hallucinating.
That's one opinion among many. Just remember that the enemy of your enemy is likely not your friend.
Are you going to stand with the 1% to oppose Trump? Are you going to stand with those who would exploit the United States to oppose Trump? Are you going to stand with those who hold the future hostage to get what they want for themselves?
Now you will have a better opportunity to build the future you want. But building that future will require more than fearmongering, gaslighting, civil unrest, and political violence. Rebuilding will depend upon merit. What worked, what didn't, and what was just stupid politics. Like it or not, what Trump is doing creates choices. What are you going to choose?
Donald Trump is the one percent. The idea that he is actually on the side of the "little guy" is laughable.
NOT laughable, more like Scary, that he could be seen this eay.
Lol …. In your dreams
Sky screaming scary or piss your pants scary?
Yes, i'm pissing my pants, laughing, at those who would think like you are right here, cause it is laughable, but also ridiculously scary how easily mislead people are, and have been, cause the lies of so few have affected so many, and if Trump had any good intentions for this country, they'd have difficulty amounting to more than a penny, as his two non sense inserted, left US All know better off, if not any.
That isn’t very sanitary but I suppose that Depends on if you have fresh adult nappies on.
That's true, Trump is a member of the 1%. Who better to fight for changing the attitudes of the 1%? There's no denying that Trump has been a traitor to his his own class. Trump hasn't given any hints he'll bail out Wall Street, the banks, or free traders.
Whether or not Trump is on the side of the little guy doesn't matter as much as the fact Trump is not catering to the 1%. Quite a difference from the previous administration.
Man oh man, like WOW, and okay, if you say so, cause just like Trump, if you say it, it must be true, but wth is going on round here ...?
Yes, it is scary. trmp has always been an elitist. He was born with platinum spoon in his mouth
huh? I thought people were losing jobs. And bringing back manufacturing is a pipe dream
His RCP average is 45%, which i think is higher than when he won election the first time. Trump's never been particularly popular, he succeeds because of Democratic craziness.
Like every cycle in history, the President's approval rating will drop as he governs and the other party blame him for everything. That goes double when its a President who the media hates and spends all their time attacking. Trump doesn't get the same "root for the same team" coverage that generated Biden is as sharp as ever headlines for four years. That's going to weigh him down.
Plus, Trump is at as best when he has someone to attack. There is no head of the Democratic Party right now, so there's no person who Trump can attack and destroy as the representative of insane policies like he did when running for President. Voters get to imagine an ideal democrat in opposition, not the batshit crazy reality that they get confronted with when democrats nominate a racialist who wants to pay for sex change operations for illegal alien criminals with taxpayer dollars.
So no matter what happens, Trump's approval will probably bounce around the 40s, just like always.
True, but that is certainly nothing to be proud of.
Who does the Daily Mail poll? Disgruntled Londoners?
Fox News has him at 44 approval and 55 disapprove
R U telling US the 1%'s have no opinion, cause maybe Fox "news" learned something after having to pay good ole Dominion, three quarters of a Billion, but, i doubt it. just like their watchers, the propaganda pushers ain't too bright, cause sometimes its dark, as inn where they keeps their peeps. I think they have created the mentality that gave US All , Trump, beyond reality star struck hockey puck stupid fck asz they did and do suck, far too many, into the abysmal not Good & Plenty, at least thats what Charlie says....
RCP takes all the polls and generates an average. Makes for more accurate polling.
RCP uses all available polls, but I agree with you.
I like RCP polls
and now he's calling them Fake news too!
NYT has a running collection of polls, so I've been watching as one poll after the other switched from approval to disapproval. Yum!!!
Here are some recaps:
