...his approvals jumped five points: As is true of every poll, the new poll by AP-NORC is only one poll.
No poll is ever perfectly accurate. If some poll was perfectly accurate, there would be no way to know that it was.
Polls provide approximations. That said, here's the way matters stand according to AP-NORC, Mediaite reporting:
Trump Surges to Best Approval Rating Ever in New AP Poll
President Trump is more popular than ever, at least according to one new poll released on Wednesday, with his approval rating jumping 5 points in the last month—an increase that coincides with his administration’s crime crackdown in Washington, D.C..
The poll results, from the The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research, shows the president has a 45% approval rating nationwide. That is the best approval rating Trump has received from the AP-NORC poll in either his first or second term.
Trump’s handling of crime received a thumbs up from 53% of Americans who were polled; a whopping 88% of Republicans said they approved of the commander-in-chief’s approach to crime, while only 16% of Democrats said they liked what Trump is doing.
Some other key points on crime: 55% of respondents said it is “acceptable for the U.S. military and National Guard to assist local police in large cities,” according to the AP-NORC, but only one-third of Americans said they would support the federal government taking over police departments in American cities. The nationwide poll also found 80% of Americans believe crime is a major problem in big cities.
The report by Sean James continues from there. For the official report by AP-NORC, you can just click this.
For the record, the numbers in this poll aren't exactly "good"—but the numbers there are better. With respect to Trump's approval rating, AP-NORC had it at 42% back in March. It slid to 39 in April and June, then went to 40 last month.
Now it's up to 45. The jump could be a statistical anomaly—or then again, probably not.
By the way:
Crime is "a major problem in big cities." When we Blues don't know how to say such things, we're looking for ways to lose.
He's so popular IA just lost a +12 R Senate race. Fucking weirdos.
ReplyDeleteThis regime has nothing but threats, criticism and finding fault for our allies, and nothing but love letters for the dictators of the world!
ReplyDeleteAlthough a larger percent of people support Trump, the anti-Trump passion seems to be getting even stronger. E.g. an acquaintance was encouraging people to attend a demonstration this weekend even though she didn't know what issue they were protesting or supporting. All she knew is that it was anti-Trump. That was enough.
ReplyDeleteYour acquaintance is right.
DeleteYou mean the guy who said just yesterday, "I have the right to do whatever I want. I'm the president of the United States"?
DeleteIt's just crazy that anyone would oppose that guy!
I am surprised DiC has any intelligent aquantences. Most college educated abhor self hating fascists.
DeleteCrime is a big problem in rural areas. The totals are lower only because the population is less.
ReplyDeleteWell you know it is measured per capita which would you know account for that, man.
Delete"Crime is 'a major problem in big cities.'"
ReplyDeleteIs it?
An opinion poll that includes responses from people who don't live in those cities might not be correct. Is crime a "major problem" because people believe it is? Or do we have other, objective data?
Before I'll accept the conclusion, you'll have to tell me how you reached it.
Heads up. Trump is now pushing Soros hate. He's well on his way to denouncing "globalists."
ReplyDelete"The president took to his Truth Social platform on Wednesday to say that the elder Soros and 'his wonderful Radical Left son' — who is now running his father’s Open Society Foundation nonprofit — should be charged with violating the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, a 1970 law providing for extended criminal penalties against participants in ongoing criminal organizations."

Damn billionaire Jews and their evil space lasers burning down all the once sacred American forests. Thank God our Daddy is on this, Making America Safe (from Jew space lasers) Again. My hero! Up 5%!!!
DeleteAn editorial masquerading as a news story.
Deletehard-to-prove federal racketeering charges...,baselessly claiming they support “violent protests.”
45%?
ReplyDeleteGiven the amount of propaganda spewed by the legacy media, I thought it would be much higher.
