Obama To Leave Office Amid Strong Approval Ratings

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Despite what some may perceive as a repudiation of eight years of his policies with the victory by Republican nominee Donald Trump in the November presidential election, President Barack Obama has enjoyed favorable approval ratings as he enters the final three weeks of his term.

For December, Obama received at least a 50 percent approval rating in all 16 polls compiled by Real Clear Politics and finished with an average of 53.1 percent. Obama's disapproval rating dipped as low as 36 percent in one poll this month but his December average was 42.3 percent.

Obama's poll numbers in his final full month in office are considerably better than his predecessor. In December 2008, George W. Bush had a 29 percent approval rating and a 67 percent disapproval rating, according to Gallup.

But Obama doesn't fare as well when compared to the last Democratic president before him. In Gallup's final poll of December 2000, Bill Clinton had a 66 percent approval rating and a 32 percent disapproval rating.

How is the election a repudiation when Hillary received 3 million more votes than Drumpf?

1. I agree Hillary has the support of the majority of Americans, therefore

no repudiation.

2. In the last year people have been using the "Thanks Obama" meme sincerely...

... I think that it would be fitting to flood twitter with sincere thanks to Obama on Jan 21.
