Two latest polls are a Rasmussen at 45% adjusts to 39% for Silver. And a brand new Yougov poll at 40%. Harris Poll has him at 48-52 though. When you're most favorable outliers still have you at a negative rating you're aren't doing well.

Also, still getting beat by Biden head to head in every poll.

1. Thanks for the good news.

The alleged Trump popularity polls have been so depressing.

They just add insult to injury.

4. This is a crisis

Presidents typically see a big approval bump in a time of crisis. Trump has seen a tiny one. If we come out of this in the Summer and he's still well below 50% that's a disaster for him.

28. Yup, Dubya got a 90 after the 9/11 bullhorn show.

Not even close, Trump.

[Lock him up.]

35. Seeing the way the orangevirus treats Michigan...

... it might cost him the EC votes he needs + Pennsylvania in for JB = buh-bye drumph.

[ffr]

2. That may be because his supporters phones more and more just never get answered.

Too soon?

19. I've heard it called

gene pool cleansing as well. Whatever it is, it's tragic and although we all die, this is sad for so many people everywhere.

3. Never believed there was one

There were several bullshit polls out. When Fox poll showed him losing that was the ballgame. Lets have an election today.

29. THIS 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

There were several bullshit polls out.

30. Just let it simmer.

5. K&R

5. He is going to sink more and more

His lack of competence is on display regardless of his toadies' efforts to hide it

[BComplex]

7. As the election nears, trump and Bill Barr are going to go after Biden with everything they've got

The whole Ukraine thing will be a major investigation....right here in the middle of the epidemic...they will drag Biden through made-up-mud so bad half the voters are going to want to stay home.

We are dealing with pure evil here, and pure evil knows no bounds.

[redstateblues]

11. Truckloads of corpses will blunt any of those tactics

[BComplex]

12. I hope you're right. Gawd, I hope you're right.

I'll be doing my part.

[HotTeaBag]

13. Agree.

'Everything they've got' won't amount to much.

[uponit7771]

23. hope so

[treestar]

18. There are plenty of things to go after the Dotard with

Though the media probably won't pay as much attention.

If he gets into Ukraine/Hunter, well his actions on that are what he was impeached for.

8. Biden beating him by 2 points in today's ABC poll is not "trounced"

Remember, you did say "every poll."

[Johnny2X2X]

15. Fair enough

Still beating him, even in outlier polls like this.

[Polybius]

22. Yes, still beating him

I personal think it'll be a close election. Probably no landslides, although we should win by one.

[Johnny2X2X]

24. Agree

I think Biden wins by 4-5 points.

Here's the thing, if the election for Bush would have been 7 months after 9/11 he would have won by 15 points. For Trump to still be losing is pretty remarkable.

[Polybius]

25. 4-5 points sound about right

However, we could lose if Biden wins by 2 points. If I recall, Hillary won by about 2 and lost the EC.

Imagine if the presidential election was in November 2001? Bush might have won 49 states.

9. What is wrong with people that makes them approve of him in any way?

Even fewer people approving of him is still a mystery to me. Far too many people are truly fucking stupid.

[LonePirate]

10. An important thing to keep in mind now that he is offering all of these worst case scenarios.

If we do not approach the worst case scenarios of 2+ million dead, he will likely brag that his actions prevented the massive death tool that some feared. Even if we exceed 100,000 deaths (which seems almost certain), he will spin that as a win - and people will believe him. He lies about the past and will magnify anything if he it can make him seem competent.

[Turin_C3PO]

34. I don't know that people will believe him.

Most people have Trump’s number. The exception is his base who will never abandon him. His lowest approval rating was 37% for a while in 2017. I wouldn’t be surprised if it hit that number again before all is said and done.

[MoonRiver]

14. The more he spews shit from his anus mouth, the lower his poll numbers go.

You'd think he would have learned that by now, but nooooo. He loves the sound of his words so much, just can't help himself.

[bearsfootball516]

16. As this continues and the body count continues to rise, his numbers will continue falling.

[tiptonic]

17. Republicans

Lets see, locking kids in cages and letting senior citizens die, maybe u feel macho now.

[progressoid]

20. Those numbers are still way too high.

Gallup should be out shortly too.

[LiberalArkie]

21. What does the Voting Machine Programmers poll have to say?

[Hulk]

26. it's hard to accept but it's true about our country...

45% of the voting population can be so damned ignorant. I've always said we are a nation of morons... and now I firmly believe it more than ever.

[ailsagirl]

27. How could he ever have had ANY approval-- that's what floors me

31. Check out Bitecofer's electoral college predictions.

Check out Bitecofer's electoral college predictions. Of course, there's an eternity between now and November, but her predictions were spot on in 2018.

32. Lowest approval rating of any modern president

Throughout his term his approval rating sticks in the forties.

I'll be very happy when we can dump trump the incompetent chump.
