"According to Rasmussen, post-debate polling has Trump’s job approval rating climbing from 46 to 49 percent"

Biden dropped from 53% to 51%.
No surprise to anybody.
Yep, that doesn't surprise me. And since all the polls understate Trump's support (just like in 2016), I bet he even increased his lead after the debate.

Talking to normal humans is where he excels. Donny, not so much - he has no empathy.
lol

This is hilarious. The dude who gives standing ovations when people die and then dances in the streets has the gall to criticize someone else for not having empathy?! 😂

can you imagine Trump telling somebody that's a nasty question. He will be thinking it. The question is if he can contain himself from blurting it out


I could imagine him looking right at an American citizen who asks him the wrong question and saying, "You're a disgusting human being."

I expect that he'll accuse someone of asking a nasty question.

According to Rasmussen, before his approval rating climbed from 46 to 49 percent, it fell from the low 50's to 46 percent following his supreme court nomination.

I set the bar for his decorum at I would be surprised if he flatly cussed someone out. That aside, there's nothing he could say that would surprise me.

Real Clear's average has Trump at the highest approval level since May.


Since May? Like four months ago? Is that supposed to be impressive or something?

I cannot see him doing that at all. He treats regular people well.

So... with Donny’s diagnosis, will there be the 2nd debate on Oct. 15th?

If true, YES, it would be quite impressive! meaning the American people will have evaluated his performance over those 4 months, and MORE approve of his performance now than then. Why would that be, ams? That someone who disapproved of his performance in May (obviously NOT a "Trumper') would all of a sudden approve of his performance?

You can argue that there are some (many!) that will approve of him no matter what, but how did he change a disapprover into an approver?

He has always had similar approval ratings to Obama, according to Rasmussen. Is that impressive?

He always had much worse disapproval ratings than Obama, thought, at least, until Rasmussen dropped disapproval ratings from their free chart.
