This one should be no surprise either, poor little Donnie.

In a national survey released Wednesday, Quinnipiac University found that 38% of American voters approve of Trump's job performance, while 55% disapprove.
A poll released earlier this month by Quinnipiac taken shortly after Trump's inauguration found that 42% of American voters approve of his job performance, while 51% disapprove.

And other polls show different results. Polls poll for the results they want, which is why they have significant margins of error.

What about these poll results showing overwhelming minority support for school choice vouchers Moe? Are they all invalid?

Just sharing some info. Maybe Donnie will be spurred on to bigger and better things if he sees this. I'm sure that he welcomes the feedback.

100% of Trump voters polled support him 100%.

Moe found a poll that agrees with him so he ignores all information contrary to his belief and runs with it.

If you take any from RCP, take the one that gives him his highest ratings, he is still at historically low numbers.

Yes. A scientific sampling of responses reported by trained, experience professionals vs a wildly ridiculous message board claim to seem to be about equal. Same reason I get all my dental advice on SnapChat instead of in office visits.

It won't change anything.....I think he was recently elected POTUS. You need to get on board and support YOUR President......the election is behind us.

If the Media you adore would stop promoting it's slanted polling as "news" or "fact", maybe we could understand what the American people are really saying when they vote "no" to expanded Government and increased confiscatory taxation.

The Left is losing their argument trying to use it's phony polling to suggest the people don't really know what they're voting for.

It's like going to your Dentist asking him to check you out for Colon cancer.

Have you even tried to pay attention to ALL the positive things he has done in just 30 days in office? Take note and pay attention. Very difficult when the media, all Dems who are still smarting over their defeat, an some RINO 'republicans' that are so addicted to the status quo and their money trail that they oppose even those things that they advocated when asking for votes,. Yet, Donald T. has done more positive for the Country in a month than Obama did throughout his 8 years. The man was a disaster as a President except in his attempt to downgrade the USA and write EOs that were geared to make more citizens dependent on the Government for more and more. Stay alert and notice the positive changes coming through DT.

Perhaps you should stop projecting yourself on to me. I am not a leftist and the only media I adore are local hot broads. Most pollsters are scientific researchers, not meanie mainstream media.

I don't know you or what you watch Coop. I respond to your posts which are almost always reliably Leftist.

And I don't trust or respect most pollsters because they are almost always wrong no matter who or what they are polling.

I know this will be like putting out a fire with gasoline, but the link below from earlier this year claims that Quinnipiac's polls are biased towards Trump, pre-election. I only bring this up to show that no one is ever happy with what a poll says based on their stance on the issue and everyone will find a flaw in something in the poll.

Take it for what it is, a poll is a snap shot in time that tries to hit a moving target. The target moves and changes from time to time so the poll is good for that period in time, very short shelf life. Take the same poll the next day with a different polling set and get a different answer.

I don't have a problem with polling per se ex-pat in GA. I have a problem with the media using them to shape their agenda, or promoting them as News or fact. We almost never get to see their sampling models, and they NEVER come back and defend their polling to any actual results...case in point the past election.

Why were they all so wrong? All they ever said about that is "obviously some folks were under sampled".

Well no sh*t!

Until the process of electing a President is changed, the Electoral College is all any candidate needs to worry about.

Trump did, Hillary didn't.

Trump won, she lost because of it.

But the Left thinks it was the Russians who kept her from spending more time in PA, WI, & MI right?

You just changed the argument, no surprise that you can't follow along.

Someone tried to use the election results as how the pollsters were wrong. Actually, they pretty much nailed the popular vote, which I pointed out, and then you reply with "but Trump won".

What do I post that is leftist? I hate Trump because he is bastardizing the conservative brand, imo. The 2016 presidential polls were some of the most accurate polls in presidential history. The EC prognosticators are the ones that missed by a mile.

This is completely wrong. They were polling for the popular vote and were very accurate in 2016. Talking heads and poll aggregators were way off on the EC forecasts.

Every poll was wrong. That's all the discussion was about countryroads89. Every one. Not one was correct, even the ones that had Trump winning (which a few did)

Point is, they all were wrong. And No, they weren't polling for the popular vote. Show me where that is pointed out in ANY these final polls? Which one had the "popular vote" correct contryroads89?

Most pollsters didn't. Poll aggregators, talking heads, dbags, etc would use the polls to forecast the EC. They were off a good deal in 2016.

I am fairly certain that almost all the polls declared that Hillary Clinton was going to be the next President. Maybe they will change their prediction methodology.
