Trouble for Trump: Disapproval at a high, 63% back Mueller, half favor impeachment originally appeared on abcnews.go.com

Disapproval of Donald Trump is at a new high, support for the Mueller investigation is broad and half of Americans in a new ABC News/Washington Post poll favor Congress initiating impeachment proceedings against the president.

Sixty percent in the national survey disapprove of Trump’s performance in office, numerically the highest of his presidency, albeit by a single point; that includes 53 percent who disapprove strongly, more than half for the first time. Thirty-six percent approve, matching his low.

shocking that it's the abc/wapo poll - which might tend a little biased one way, another one, Rasmussen (that biases the other way), has his approval hovering around 48 or 49%

RCP POLLS does a great job of tracking the individual polls and running averages. AND when you focus in on the economy, the results show he's getting decent credit for "obama's economy"

It's not an Obama deflection, it's an equivalence, you want to go pull a Bush poll? You can't say a president is in serious trouble, when the president before him had an equivalently poor unfavorable rating at the same point in his term. Sorry you can't understand the simplest comparisons.

You are correct about the fact that I am biased and I acknowledge my bias, let CNN and others who have waged all out media war on those in this country who believe in being fiscally conservative ideals and in US exceptionalism, acknowledge their socialist liberal leanings but they don't. And they won't.

Have I ever declared myself non-partisan?? No. I hold strong conservative and libertarian beliefs, I believe the Constitution and the first 10 amendments are the greatest single establishment of government this world has ever witnessed. I think that the US government has simple fundamental duties expressly designed to LIMIT the federal power. AND, I believe that liberalism, and it's inherent lean towards socialism and federal power will in the long run doom that Constitution if enough people fall for the media chirping.

Great speech, Bravo !!! I am all for your right to have different political beliefs than mine or anyone's.


But your argument that I can't pull a poll that says 60% of American doesn't trust the president is BS . We are not talking Obama here ,this is all about trump and his ignorance and the fact that his cult is running out of excuse's for him,hell they are just ignoring his corruption at a great cost to this country but hey ........fuck America at least trump is president,right?

Do you get a dollar everytime you say cult? Geez louise, every post of yours is the exact same. I wouldn't discuss what light beer is the worst with you.

What is funny, is that his repeated mantra like calls of cultism are far more cult-like behavior than me, or anyone else, expressing our opinions in support of a politician or political policies.

s/n, always remember he is a self proclaimed Republican so take everything with a grain of salt.
