Fox News Poll: Storms erode Trump's ratings

Source: Fox

Was it the tweet storms or the hurricanes? Something hit President Trump’s numbers. His personal ratings have deteriorated and his job approval has hit a low.

Thirty-eight percent of voters approve of the job Trump is doing in a new Fox News poll, down from 42 percent last month. At the same time, disapproval is up 4 points to a high of 57 percent. That includes 49 percent who “strongly” disapprove.

Some of the drop comes from white men without a college degree, as 56 percent approve of the president, down from 68 percent last month. Working-class white men were a key voting bloc for him in the election (71 percent backed Trump according to the Fox News Exit Poll).

Also, his approval among white evangelical Christians went from 74 percent last month to 66 percent now. Eighty percent backed him in the election.

Xtains realize that he is physically wrecking this country. 2 states wrecked from hurricanes, California up in smoke and Puerto Rico is completely devastated and he is rewarding his "friends" to continue his wrecking ball behavior. Which contracts have been given to his toadies for Cali., Houston, and Florida?

Guess they can't pray away the stench of this slug.

I'm thinking, like most Americans, that it would have been nice to have someone like that at the helm when tragedy struck.

it was also about Quayle's attacking Murphy Brown for being an unwed mother. We all laughed at the notion of a politician publicly attacking a fictional character. Indeed, small potatoes compared to what's going on today.

When has the truth ever been something they cared about on Fox News?
They've made up more lies to keep Cheeto's presidency afloat since I don't know when.
Since the Nazi Era I guess.

So what's their game plan? Are they turning the tables on Cheeto now?

They're hinting to Trump that it's time for another diversion. In essence they're saying, "circle the wagons Donnie, it's time to hit back with some more choice lies". It's a little game they play. Trump's too stupid to know what to do, so the good folks at FAUX Noise remind him it's time to "take command", and lie his ass off. Or go play golf, one of the two.

He won't reference Fake News or Fake Polling from Fox. That puts him into a big jam with the boot lickers at Fox. So what will he do? Take it out on Schumer, Corker, Pelosi, Flake, McCain, Puerto Rico, North Korea?
