Obama Approval Hits New High for Second Term

Source: Political Wire

A new Quinnipiac poll finds that American voters approve of the job President Obama is doing, 50% to 43%, his highest score since right after he won reelection four years ago.

Most interesting: “Obama’s policies have helped the nation’s economy, 44% of voters say, as 38% say his policies have hurt the economy and 16% say his policies haven’t made a difference. But only 21% of voters say Obama’s policies have helped their personal financial situation, as 33% say these policies have hurt them personally and 44% say they’ve made no difference.

This has got to piss off Trump

Why can't we keep Obama? Why is it only republicans who can flout the constitution?

Obama is a truly good man in all respects and this character set to take his place might be the most unqualified and unworthy on the planet. The icing on the cake is his narcissistic personality disorder and overwhelming sense of entitlement. He can't even be bothered to take a security briefing. So depressing.
