Keep pushing. Get out and vote. That margin isn't wide enough.

I'm ao sick of this headline. It's been hitting a new low every week for the past 2 years. You'd think it was at 0 by now, if you were to believe this bullshit headline.
Nate Silver's poll aggregator also has him at a new low. The headline is accurate. Perhaps you misunderstood it? 0% approval isn't a thing. No reasonable person would read the headline that way

Doesn't matter.
They are very clearly open to cheating.
Which means we have to show up in larger numbers to offset the cheating.
Stop [fill in the blank] and go vote when the time comes. No excuses.
Just 36 percent of likely voters said that they approved of Mr. Trump’s performance, while 59 percent said that they disapproved.
That's still more than 1 out of 3. Still wayyyyy too high.
But that's at the Bush line (or the Dick line) or the Sarah Palin floor...unless something really systemic changes in this country, we are probably stuck with about that percentage of Americans being just that fucking terrible and/or stupid to support conservatives.
The lowest I've seen was 33%. Like literally, 1/3 is the floor.
1/3+ of the people in this country are awful people, and even after Trump is gone we're supposed to just live side by side with them?
NDP in Canada became the official opposition in Canada under Jack Layton. Some percentage of people just are drawn to decisiveness, and the dem establishment is just not that.
My point is the floor is lower than 1/3, dems just don't put up leaders who can crack it. Real floor is probably around 1/4
That was one of the most corrupt moments in Canadian politics. The NDP popularity was 100% due to his personal appeal. He knew that he was dying and would never sit as opposition leader for any amount of time, but he kept it secret and let people vote for him.
Real floor is probably around 1/4
Based on literally nothing but vibes.
41% of the surveyed would still vote for this madness and 8% are undecided or too embarrassed to admit how they would vote. 49-51 with a margin of error is not a winning split, it's a deadlock at best. If you want change, change requires action and the simplest action you can take is voting. This isn't a high obstacle or a difficult choice.
It’s not 0% approval, which is the only number that matters.
This stance is impressively insane. How did you get to this?
Sorry if this is obtuse. Trump has been polled for at least 10 years. Corporate media often points to the polls as a bad sign. Then Trump defies the polls and the pollster goes whoops and assumes next time the poll will be correct. But it never is. Trump has so often defied polls I’m surprised it’s not a meme. Anyway. I realize the number is never going to be 0 because some people are so fanatical they need to be deradicalized. Those people will always support Trump and they’ll also support the next snake oil salesman.
It's one thing for a person to say something this dumb, but who are the 26+ other people who upvoted it???
Really? It doesn't matter unless approval is 0%? Something that has literally never happened and is essentially impossible?
Some people seem to think he is on the ballot this election too, how sad :(
He's names not there, but his policies are, and if the congress turns blue, he could be removed from office after his third impeachment.
He literally told his base to vote like he is. We should all make sure everyone gets that message, because Trump is deeply unpopular
“Unnamed democratic opponent” will perform better against Trump than any actual candidate the DNC eventually choose to excrete onto the podium.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, VOTE!!
These polls are meaningless, please, for the love of god, fucking VOTE
Fake news. USA loves him. This is nonsense to keep the left in line and “hoping” things will “get better at the midterm”
Fake news. USA loves him.
Never been here, huh?
Never been to a red state, huh?
I live in Missouri and work in Oklahoma. People have gotten real quiet over the last year.
They had 10 years to be quiet. They deserve whatever they get
I agree, but that's not what we were talking about.
Exactly. Let’s just change the topic to an important one. What’s your favorite modern jazz band?
Modern jazz? What's the band that did the music on Cowboy Bebop? Seatbelt?
I don't know a lot of modern jazz, but I'll rock out to Cab Calloway.
