Regarding dRumpf's latest approval rating ....

[strongermessage]

In order for his numbers to have climbed to 50%, it would mean that a significant number of people who thought he was an incompetent buffoon before the pandemic have now changed their position regarding his competence. I for one do not personally know anyone who has changed his or her opinion about this moron and would be interested to see how many others have had the same experience.

1. I think he has found a way to cheat on the poll numbers.

Like he does everything else.

2. I can't believe it either

unless the polls are heavily weighted with responders in Alabama like states

[enough]

3. All we need to do is remember what happened to George W Bush's approval numbers

after 9/11. 90% approval. When people are afraid they are irrational and want to think there is a strong leader who knows what to do and will take care of them.

Chaos and fear is Trump’s natural habitat. He thrives there.

4. Bush got reelected

5. Could simply be an outlier poll.

I will wait until I see three such polls in a row before I jump to any conclusions.

6. When 100,000 have died, yeah tell me all about his fucking approval rating!

If he isn't in the basement then, I'm gonna go berserk (on social media).
