The latest figures for Trump include 26% who Strongly Approve of the way Trump is performing and 49% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -23. (see trends).

A question for poll experts about Rasmussen methodology. Funtatlaguy Jul 2017 #2
It's an automated poll so presumably the options are binary. DemocratSinceBirth Jul 2017 #5

Will he be tweeting about his great 'numbers' today?
He's sinking like a fucking ROCK! This gives me a little hope...a wee bit.

I've noticed that his polls never have a percentage for "don't know, not sure, etc".
Most other polling outlets always have about 5% of these.
Does Rasmussen push those people to ask which way they lean? And, he then puts them in?

This 26% is the core and it is shrinking. His floor is being lowered, it's already lower than people said it could be. I've been saying all along, his floor is 15%, that could actually still be too high.

And know this, the people who are "waking up" need to be brought into the resistance, they can be valuable as they are among the most politically active groups out there. And they will be very angry like a spurned lover.

That's the highest disapproval number of all of the 9 major polls. It's the highest disapproval for him (or ANY President) at this point, 7 months in...EVER. Asshole is making history and may the trend continue!
The filthy ReThugs will sniff the breeze and start drifting away so he doesn't take them with him.
Yeah, baby!
