Trump’s Still Tanking While Obama’s Ratings Are Rising Through The Roof!

Why are Donald Trump’s ratings sinking while Barack Obama’s are on the upswing? As that old Joni Mitchell song so aptly puts it: “Don’t it always seem to go, that you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone.” After nearly eight years of a drama-free administration led by a president who always conducts himself with civility and grace, maybe we’re finally starting to realize how
good we’ve had it.
President Barack Obama’s approval rating’s at 52 percent.
CNN reports President Barack Obama’s approval ratings are up again in their latest poll from Friday:
President Barack Obama’s approval rating remains on the upswing, with 52% now approving of his performance as president, up a statistically insignificant one point since last month, but now five points above the 47% who approved in January.
This survey marks the third straight CNN/ORC poll with majority approval for the President, and the fourth straight with a net-positive approval rating overall.
Given today’s polarized politics, 52 percent is about as good as it gets. Meanwhile, after months of surging public approval, Donald Trump’s poll numbers have suddenly begun taking a nose dive. According to
Inquisitr:
Donald Trump endured a sharp drop in the polls that led the GOP candidate to do what many party insiders had been hoping he would — fire controversial campaign manager Corey Lewandowski and adopt a more presidential tone.
If Donald Trump’s trip to
Scotland — and his lame attempt at an
infomercial for his golf resorts — shows how he intends to act “presidential,” he’s doomed. For starters, tweeting
praise to the people of Scotland for “taking their country back” when they actually voted
against Brexit and
for staying in the European Union made him a laughing stock.
And that’s on top of calling Mexicans rapists, calling for a ban on Muslims, making sexist comments about women, encouraging rally-goers to beat up protesters, lying through his teeth, and generally acting like a big, mean, low-class bully.
We’ll miss you, President Barack Obama.
The 2016 election cycle has not only exposed divisions in both the GOP and in the Democratic party. It’s also making us realize how
good we’ve had it under Barack Obama. He may not be perfect, and our nation still faces some serious issues.
But Barack Obama has left things better than when he started and has never acted anything less than presidential.
Alas, Hillary Clinton’s email hijinks and Wall Street speeches don’t put her in the best light either. Although it’s unlikely that Clinton will be charged with a crime, couldn’t she just do as the US State Dept. asked and
not put a god damned email server in her basement? Doing paid speeches for Wall Street banks and refusing to release the transcripts isn’t exactly winning over Bernie Sanders’ supporters either.
The wonky, data-crunching blog
Five Thirty Eight reports that both Donald Trump’s
and Hillary Clinton’s poll numbers are astonishingly bad for people who’ve just won their party’s presidential primaries. In late April, Hillary Clinton’s “strongly unfavorable” rating was a scarily high 37 percent, while Donald Trump’s hit a staggering 53 percent.
Yup. The American people have gotten spoiled. No sex scandals. None of those worry-inducing deer-in-the-headlights moments. And definitely no chest-thumping or sabre-rattling with foreign leaders. For nearly eight years, Barack Obama has deflected the slings and arrows of racism, birther rumors and GOP obstruction with courtesy and unruffled calm.
