isn't it interesting how obama was almost always described as "unpopular", yet donnie

has consistently had the highest disapproval numbers of almost any president since they started tracking approval/disapproval?

donnie's approval was higher than his disapproval maybe once right after inauguration and maybe once again last week (but no longer this week). every other time, over three years, his disapprovals have been higher than his approvals, and his *strongly* disapprove numbers are among the highest of any president, ever.

no other president has ever come this close to being this consistently unpopular, and downright loathed by such a large portion of the country.


yet, the press only occasionally refers to him as unpopular, even though they did that to obama relentlessly, when obama's numbers were better.


donnie is *deeply* unpopular!

one borderline statement and they had no trouble at all branding him a liar, when they *still* struggle with calling donnie a liar, thousands upon thousands of lies on, never mind that he's the king of the exaggerated boast....

obama (and hillary) were "divisive" due to the fact that sane people liked them and insane people hated them, despite their sincere efforts to unify everyone and make everyone's lives better.

donnie is divisive because *that's one of his key goals*. that's his "thing".

"Naw, I just hated him because he was black."

They know what they think and feel is wrong. They just don't have the stones to admit it.

So they say he was 'unpopular'; they say he was 'divisive'.

What a bunch of worthless morons...
