Trump's approval rating dives to just 36 per cent amid fallout from stinging anonymous op-ed as he loses 6 points in a month in CNN poll – and 16 among independents:

CNN poll's approval rating for Trump is the lowest it's been since in any major national survey since February
Other polls this month have Trump's approval as high as 48 per cent
Dismal CNN numbers were measured immediately following the publication of an anti-Trump op-ed that The New York Times ran anonymously
Just 31 per cent of self-described 'independents' are supporting the president, a 16-point drop from just one month ago

President Donald Trump's approval rating has sunk to just 36 per cent, according to a CNN poll – a drop of 6 points in just the last month.

Other polls in the field this month rate Trump's approval between 38 and 48 per cent.

But the number from CNN is the lowest inany national poll since early February.

One section of the network's polling report goes further, rounding the president's approval rating down to an anemic 35 per cent.

As with most polls measuring Trump's work in the Oval office, Republicans give him far better numbers than Democrats.

Eighty-two per cent of GOPers approve, compared with just 7 per cent of Dems.

But among self-identified 'independents' who aren't aligned with either major party, Trump's stock in CNN's poll is slipping fast.

A month ago 47 per cent of independents gave him a positive nod, a better-than-average showing among the contingent of persuadable Americans who can swing an election.

This month just 31 per cent said yes to the president, a new low for CNN's measuring stick.

The survey was active September 6-9, the three days immediately following the publication of an anonymous anti-Trump essay in The New York Times.

Nearly 20 million people have read the op-ed online, according to Harvard University's Nieman Journalism Lab.

Not trying to poo poo the poll, but it was a thee day poll given to 1003 people from who knows where in the US, by someone who obviously dislike the President.

Don't really think that's an accurate way of polling how Americans really feel. Not polling such a small number of people.
The right wing and very partisan Rasmussen Poll uses the opinions of even less Americans, and they have a stronger disapproval than approval rating for Trump.

Quinnipiac University came up with similar numbers to the CNN Poll.The university’s National Poll surveyed 1,038 voters during the same period as CNN, and saw 54% disapproval of how Trump handled his job, and 38% approval with +/-3.7% margin of error. A month previous, 54% of those surveyed disapproved and 41% approved. Among Republicans, Quinnipiac found 83% approve of Trump’s performance.


Of the total 1,003 adults surveyed by CNN’s polling partner SSRS from Sept. 6 to 9, 58% disapproved of the way Trump handles his job as president up from 53% in August, while 36% approve, a drop from 42% in August. The margin of error is +/-3.8%.

However, 82% of those who identified as Republican approve of the president’s job handling, and 68% of those who call themselves conservative gave a thumbs up.

Asked to rate economic conditions in America, 69% of CNN poll respondents said very good or good, while 70% of the Quinnipiac poll’s subjects said excellent or good.

Yesterday, Gallup released its regular weekly polling update, which placed Trump’s approval rating at nearly the same: 54% approve and 40% disapprove. Gallup polls 1,500 adults, and has an error rate of +/-3%. A month prior, the numbers were 56% and 39%.

Remember that the only one to blame for this drop in Trump's popularity is Trump himself. How can he keep on lying on a daily basis and think that he can get away with it?

How can that poll’s numbers be trusted? C’mon. I work for an American company, most of my colleagues are American, and almost half my clients. Our Chairman (emeritus) worked in the Reagan Administration...

... 36% has to be way too high. LOL!

And what is your expertise as to how polls should be conducted so as to maximize accuracy. Not your opinion, but your expertise as opposed to the polling company.

With all due respect, your opinion on the accuracy of this poll is totally meaningless since you know absolutely nothing about how to conduct a poll.

Of course. How can polls be trusted? They can only be trusted when the are favorable to the PGOTUS. Everyone knows that.

I would never count out the resiliency of the Trump base or the stupidity and gullibility of the American electorate. Time will tell.

Oh, and you're the expert on conducting polls?? :rolleyes:

Maybe you should read this on how so many left-leaning polling companies oversample Democrats:

Oh and this 2016 article from CATO a few months before the election tells you all you need to know:

https://www.cato.org/publications/commentary/no-polls-arent-biased-clinton-really-leading-trump

Hillary with a 5 to 7 point lead. How did that work out for the Left??!!! :spit:
Just shows she would have won if Trump and Putin didn't hack the Clinton/dem emails.

Also just as important in polling, is this:
Only 33% of American's trust Trump, you just happen to among that minority, it appears.
Even Trump's own lawyer at the WH said this:

Dowd after he finished his practice interview with the president in January, who the journalist noted had warned Trump he would be “fitted for an orange jumpsuit” if he were ever to actually sit down with Mueller’s team for a real interview.

“Trump goes ballistic, makes things up, starts screaming. Dowd thought had he been Mueller, he would have been fired right on the spot,” Woodward told Colbert.

“‘You can’t testify. You- you are disabled,’” Woodward said, referencing remarks Dowd reportedly made toward Trump after the mock interview. “I mean, imagine the lawyer- your lawyer, telling you you’re disabled. ‘And you can’t testify because you can’t tell the truth. You just make things up!’”

Trump is a salesman. He hyperboles and exaggerates a lot.

But I believe when it comes to fixing the American economy, and wanting the best for his country, his heart is in the right place

You really are an easy mark.
Trump cut taxes for his oligarch buddies and is trying to kill health care for the masses but you still think his 'heart is in the right place'.
There is a sucker born every minute.

You mean you honestly believe that Trump lowering taxes on the super rich and trying to kill obamacare was done because Trump's 'heart is in the right place'?
You honestly believe Trump at his word?

He is not slashing taxes for the super rich alone.

Read this: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/house-republicans-unveil-second-round-of-tax-cut-bills/

He also didnt want to kill healthcare completely, he wanted to repeal and replace Obamacare with something better

More misleading information by our boy Phil McNasty.

First, that article has been debunked has false information (snopes I believe) and was discussed here approximately a year ago. It's normal for a polling company to provide the demographics of the people polled, you just need to go their their website and look it up. I provided the demographic data for 2-3 of them just to prove the article was faked.

Second, the information is from pre November 2016. How is it relevant now?

Third, the researched and accepted primary reason the polling companies got the 2016 election wrong was that many of them relied on person-to-person questions (whether it be in-person or the phone) and not a balance of questionnaire, internet, for and person-to-person. It was thought the "shy-Trump" syndrome was impacting their results - people didn't want to admit publicly they supported Trump. Some Terbite claimed last week that Trump supporters avoided polls, but that was already debunked. They polling technique has now been corrected and over the last 2 years most political polling agencies are achieving very high accuracy scores. The most important factor now is the wording of the question.

Phil, you already know all of this as it's been discussed several times with lots of supporting proof provide. Why do you knowingly keep posing fake information?

Trump's slashing of taxes was done on the backs of huge increases in the deficits. Of course that is boilerplate GOP supply side policies (i.e. 100% SWAMP). But let's assume the supply side argument has merit. NOW try to explain Trump's kneecapping of this via his tariffs (which are nothing more than a tax). Worse - how does crippling trading partners help the US, unless Trump thinks the US can exist alone (like one of his Administration circle jerks). Trump seems to think that killing China means he wins. What about Boeing? What about Caterpillar? Both are virtually flat for the year and have underperformed. A lot of US industry depends upon trade. Trump is too stupid to realize that and has kooks as advisors.

Trump's policies unchecked will eventually result in rampant inflation and much higher rates. For anybody who has ever purchased a house in double digit mortgage rate times - just imagine how people will re-finance in that environment. IF there is a significant slowdown too (which is inevitable at some point), then it becomes a triple whammy.
