A new Quinnipiac University poll put President Trump’s approval rating at 36 percent

That's a lie. It has to be 57%.
I'll bet the people polled didn't consider what a great deal maker Trump is with Mexico. He's going to show them you know.

Rasmussen has him at 59%. He got 47% of the vote. He has done what he said he would do during his first week. The Q poll also over sampled Dems (by 9%). I don't know if 59% is accurate or not, but this Q poll seems way out of line just based on the actual vote totals.
Actually, it will be the same length as the last 4 years. Trump will say about twice as much as Obama since Obama couldn't speak more than two words at a time. Ugh, Ugh,
I'm just joking. Chill. I don't mind executive orders per se. My problem with Trump's first week is his demeanor and approach. I thought he'd at least become somewhat "Presidential." He's still acting like he did in the campaign Maybe that's just him.
But when you're like that even if you win it can turn out bad down the road. If he bests Mexico in this wall thing he'll have a short term win but the long term enmity of Mexico and their people. You gotta be at least somewhat of a diplomat when you're POTUS.
That's because Obama took time to think before he spoke, which isn't exactly a bad trait in a POTUS.
I agree that Trump is a moron. I don't like him as a person. I do like his policies so far. As for Mexico, they have zero leverage. They don't want the wall or border security, the American people do. Trump represents the American people. Nieto loves the fact they get $28B per year from Mexican's living in the U.S. so they want to keep that border open. It is not in our national security interests. I am sure Trump could be more diplomatic, but after 8 years of groveling, it is nice to have a President that stands up for what is best for America.
As for EO's, the Dems loved Obama's even when they were blatantly unconstitutional. And as liberal constitutional scholar, Jonathan Turley, pointed out, they (the Dems) will rue the day they let Obama get away with it. His example was President Cruz, and what EO's he would sign. But I think Trump would have fit his example as well.
The US building a wall is one thing. Mexico may or may not like it, but it's the US's land and they can do what they want. But making Mexico pay for it? They don't want the wall but not only are you going to build that wall you're going to make them pay for it. How is that not humiliating to Mexico?
It is humiliating. But it is Mexico that is allowing Cartels to flourish on that border boosting the drug trade. It is Mexico that gives passage to migrants flowing though Mexico from Central and South America to our border. Mexico is not some innocent party being abused. They know exactly what they are doing and that is actually encouraging Mexicans to cross the border for work (knowing they will be sending funds back from the U.S.).
Look at Mexico's immigration laws. They are much, much tougher than ours and very, very strictly enforced. They kept one of our soldiers in jail for over 200 days simply because he crossed the border not knowing that he did.
Listen to this:

All that and they've still had time to save face. They could stand up, shake hands and agree to fund the wall on the condition that we maintain it. All for the sake of US and Mexico's equally valued sovereignty and security. Amen. Some such BS like that will be harder to sell now.

so, in other words... "it's ****"
President Donald Trump begins his term with a negative 36 - 44 percent job approval rating from American voters, including a negative 33 - 50 percent rating from women, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released today. Another 19 percent are undecided.
President Barack Obama scored a positive 59 - 25 percent approval rating in his first post- inaugural poll by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University on March 4, 2009.
There are party, gender, age and racial gaps in President Trump's approval rating:
President Trump will be a worse president than Barack Obama, 50 percent of American voters say, and 37 percent say he will be a better president.
Trump will be a "great" president, 18 percent of voters say; 25 percent say he will be a "good" president; 16 percent say he will be "not so good" and 36 percent say he will be "bad."
"Stumbling out of the blocks, President Donald Trump is considered a divider not a uniter, flunking on honesty, empathy and level headedness, while his predecessor sees his legacy burnished by better and better numbers every polling cycle," said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll. "But voters are optimistic in general and confident he will help the economy."
American voters give President Trump a negative 39 - 52 percent favorability rating. Vice President Mike Pence gets a split 37 - 36 percent favorability rating.
Looking at Trump's personal qualities, American voters say:
