Trump's approval rating drops to second-term low as support from independents craters
WASHINGTON ― President Donald Trump's approval rating has dropped to 37%, according to a new Gallup poll, the lowest mark of his second term as independent voters have increasingly soured on his presidency.
The poll, taken July 7 through July 21, was conducted on the heels of Trump's July 4 signing of his "Big, Beautiful Bill" into law and as he's faced an intense backlash over his administration's refusal to release files in the government's case of disgraced financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
It marks a 10-point drop from the 47% approval rating Americans gave Trump's job performance at the beginning of his term in January. The poll, a phone survey of 1,002 Americans released July 24, has a margin of error of +/- 4 percentage points.

USAToday keeps their circulation numbers up for their advertising revenue by selling copies to all hotels and motels that will take them for .11 cents a copy. It's puppy paper for floor protection! And the reason they call the other the Gallup Poll is because their full of crap and can't find the loo.
This is why we may eventually have to do something about the left. Their whole life is built around a fiction that makes them hate, tells them they are victims, and that normal working people who don't have time for their shite are evil and the root of their problem ridden lives.
Bottom line a productive nation doesn't have time for it, and when they radicalize, they threaten the productive. When normal society has had enough it won't end well for them.

Beware of any poll spread out over more than 3-4 days. You wind up with a sample that is responding to different events.

it's too funny ... my memories of usatoday go from my roomie calling out stats (I ran 3 fantasy leagues back in the day before affordable computers and the realistic internutz speed) to the travel days in the hotel (akin to CNN in the airports) and would just walk by, pick up three or more, and toss 'em in the garbage ... it became a silly little game...
man, I do NOT miss traveling...
Gannett is the devil ... and folk wonder why they hear the same buzzwords day after day from the msm...
the fact a single entity owns 90%+ of ANYTHING is as close as it gets to real communism...
I'm long past done with all that bs...

37% is statistically impossible given that the latest polls have him between 88-90% among republicans. That would mean is they did a 1/3 rd each of pubs, dems and Indy he would have to be at zero percent among the latter two groups.

It takes a while for leftists to do polls. They have to locate enough respondents who answer the way they want to get the result they want.

RE: Trump's approval rating drops to second-term low as support from independents craters
Quote:Pollster Matt Towery joined Fox’s “The Ingraham Angle,” to share why the mainstream media continues to get it wrong when it comes to President Trump’s approval numbers. Towery suggests that Trump’s approval ratings far exceed what the media claims.
Per The Daily Caller, “Gallup published a poll Thursday showing Trump’s approval rating dropped to 37%, with support among independents falling to 29%.”
Ingraham said, “The overall approval rating, one was 42%. That looked kind of low to me, but overall people are generally, seem to be pretty happy.”
Towery replied, “Well, it is low. And let me tell you, there’s a war that takes place. You talk about the media. There’s one among us pollsters as well.”
“Those of us who poll Trump very well and have been accurate, oftentimes our polls are shunted to the side and instead you get like a Gallup poll.”
“Gallup used to be very good at doing presidential approval. They’re not anymore. They certainly are not with Trump.”
“38% approval? That’s a joke.”
“So, really, when you look at polls, it’s almost like when you look at the old legacy media versus the new media and the conservative media. It’s two different worlds.”
“Trust me, Donald Trump’s at above 50% approval, majority approval in this country. Take it from me. I’m right.”

Even if it was just an acknowledgement rather than an endorsement. When that day comes pigs will fly.

“To be honest with you, the country is moving towards Trump.”
I saw that clip somewhere else and was immediately struck at how much Matthews has aged. I think he is 80 years old. I remember back in 1998/99, he was one of the very few liberals/Democrats who admitted that the Clinton scandals were not “about sex”, but actually went to the core of ethics and accountability in government. He has rarely shown that much sense in the intervening years but he sure nailed it on this one.
