    He could take a **** on a desk in the oval office and his supporters would defend it. A cult of personality over a lying, orange phony idiot who can't even type a coherent tweet. Just embarrassing.

    I hope this country repudiates itself in November and sends the GOP to massive loses. The GOP already losing in deeply red districts gives me hope.
    You have to wonder what percentage of that 40% actually takes him seriously. I'm sure there are some that approve of him but still think he's a buffoon. As long as he pisses off the left, some will approve.
    It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

    • How in the name of political correctness has this beer-guzzling, language-abusing, sensibilities-mangling San Diego tradition called Over-the-Line survived?How has something so profane, so intoxica…


      They are having the 65th Over The Line Tournment this weekend (and next) at Fiesta Island in Mission Bay. It is a local version of beach softball which traditionally involved public nudity, lots of public drunkenness, and even some public sex. Now, they have neutered it and gone way to politically correct but during the 1970's to 1990's it was a sight to behold.

      • His approval rating, per 538, has actually trended slightly up since a nadir about a year ago. But overall, it's pretty flat. He might hit 45% by this time next year. I think the main force in his favor is that nobody's really shocked by anything he does anymore. We know who Donald is. He's Donald. What are you gonna do? Have him not be Donald? That wouldn't be Donald at all.

              To be fair he babbled a lot of stuff about Russia and China as well then kind of, sort of, tried to rephrase it as competitor. Basically just an average day of Trumps brain dead verbal diarrhea.

              • No, that doesn't really surprise me. At any rate, I'd guess a large chunk of America sort of agrees with him.

                    • "Clock Boy" lost his appeal against Ben Shapiro, or rather his father did. The judge ruled that Shapiro has the right to say that bringing a clock to school that looks like a bomb is a hoax. So the father and son won no cases against anyone.

                      Of course this was a very big deal to the left in 2015, but they seem to have forgotten all about it now. Imagine that.

                          True. A consistent 23-24% strongly approve of him (even Rasmussen confirms the "Strongly approve" figure). The rest of the 40% generally just go with whoever the republican is... it could be Satan as long as he has an "R" next to his name.

                            As of late, it's taken a nose dive according to RCP. 39-43% is generally where it bounces around. I wouldn't wipe my butt with Rasmussen... that poll is total garbage.





                            In Reuters/IPSOs, it's back down to 39%.

                            I think an indictment may drive it down.

                              Oh wonderful. I have a great job and recently received a promotion. You honestly think I would attribute that to the asshat in the White House?

                              If anything, job growth and economic growth was far better under Obama. What we're entering now is a period of inflation and overheating. The economy is overheating and because we wasted $1.5 trillion on a garbage tax cut we're royally screwed in the next recession. And I think the next recession will hit in around 24 months. We have NO fiscal or monetary policy. We can't spend our ways out of this one. Under Donald Trump, the national debt has climbed dramatically and inflation has shot upwards.

                              Trump has done next to nothing to help people and his tax cut was an absolute joke.

                              Oh and by the way, how are the manufacturing jobs going? Harley and Carrier?

                              Rah is right. You talk directly out of your buttocks. Most job growth isn't even in red states. Some red states are actually losing jobs. Blue states, like California, make up the vast majority of job growth primarily because of state leadership, and not because of anything Donny has done.

                              And Indiana is suffering job losses because that tax cut has led to outsourcing.

                              Facts are miserable things for the right wing. Facts and reality tend to mess up your delusional world views.
