Rasmussen started (at inauguration) at 56% approval of likely voters. 56% > 48%.

If you ignore the two trillion (with a t) error, and fantasy figures based on a fictional Laffer curve, you still have a budget proposal with some numbers.
Whatever you do, don't read the budget proposal!!!

Not really being punished, dude.
They still get to say, "MAGA" and "Shitlery" and really cool stuff like that. Such benefits FAR outweigh anything in the proposed budget or Trumpcare.

keep up your cherry picking if it helps you sleep. Fact is, trump's base has shrunk by a third since the election. Who will be the last one to turn out the lights?
https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/donald-trumps-base-is-shrinking/You are grasping at straws. Just because Trump voters do not agree with everything he is doing does not in any way mean they would have voted for Hillary or will vote against him in the next election.
It is amazing that someone who claims to be so enlightened as you regularly jumps to conclusions after reading any article that even hints that Trump is showing signs of weakness.
Desperation is what it is called. Republicans know it well because they did the same thing the whole time Obama was president.
Didn't work then either.

your argument is that Trump would still win if the election were today? that' laughable.
there is no possible way that those 70,000 people who won the election would still show up. And there is no possible way that millions of previously unmotivated Democrats would NOT show up.
Look at these special elections since Novmeber - in districts Trump won by 20 points, the Dems are winning or coming very close.
seriously man, you are deluded. Dems are highly motivated now and the trump fanatical base has fallen by a third. He is the least popular new president in modern history, He is not liked. He would lose big, and he is dragging the GOP down, hard.

Haha- Agip does tend to get all pumped up after reading [incredibly biased] articles. He is a Liberal leader's wet dream.

For a more complete picture:
*Reduction of deficits*
CBO and JCT estimate that enacting the American Health Care Act would reduce federal deficits by $119 billion over the coming decade and increase the number of people who are uninsured by 23 million in 2026 relative to current law.
*Uncertainty Surrounding the Estimates*
The ways in which federal agencies, states, insurers, employers, individuals, doctors, hospitals, and other affected parties would respond to the changes made by the legislation are all difficult to predict, so the estimates discussed in this document are uncertain. In particular, states would have a wide range of options—notably, the optional waivers discussed above that would allow them to modify the minimum set of benefits that must be provided by insurance sold in the nongroup and small-group markets and that would permit medical underwriting for people who did not demonstrate continuous coverage. The array of market regulations that states could implement makes estimating the outcomes especially uncertain. But, throughout, CBO and JCT have endeavored to develop estimates that are in the middle of the distribution of potential outcomes.
In other words, "I'd rather thousands die needlessly rather than increase the deficit and the CBO is FAKE NEWS."
The feigned concern for the deficit is such bs. If Republicans really cared about it, they wouldn't support massive tax cuts on the wealthy and expect that it would increase revenues, they wouldn't support pouring even more money down the bottomless defense spending pit, they wouldn't be okay with promises to cut huge amounts of spending by eliminating unspecified "waste, fraud, and abuse", and they wouldn't want a budget that cuts or eliminates programs that are undeniable economic boons (e.g., earned income tax credit, rural business development, manufacturing promotion, advanced energy research). Convincing the average Fox viewer that catering to the bottom lines of the extraordinarily wealthy is what's best for all of us has got to be the greatest con job of all time. You don't want to be an entitled, lazy liberal do you? Just give us more money! It will fix the deficit! It will lead to unprecedented economic growth and jobs! It will make everyone better off! Promise!

Appeal to leftist stereotypes:
1) Trump voters are poor whites
2) Single mothers are poor
Uses loaded words:
I voted for Trump. Now he wants to cut the aid I need
Appeal to liberal causes:
Shockey is on Supplemental Security Income (SSI), a program to help low-income Americans who are disabled

Hey moron, no one is calling that news if you haven't noticed. You have serious cognitive limitations if you can't tell the difference between "stories" like these and a news report. Good luck

ANOTHER BROKEN PROMISE:
-- Carrier, the company Trump pledged to keep on American soil, just informed the state of Indiana that it will soon begin cutting 632 workers from its Indianapolis factory. “The manufacturing jobs will move to Monterrey, Mexico, where the minimum wage is $3.90,†Daniel Paquette reports.
Trump told Indiana residents at a rally last year that, if he got elected, there was a “100 percent chance†he would save these jobs at the heating and air-conditioning manufacturer. "It’s not like we have an 80 percent chance of keeping them or a 95 percent chance,†he said. “100 percent!!â€

Rasmussen is a biased (conservative) poll.

Methinks Trump needs a lesson on probability.

Trumpettes are NOT Americans!
A Republican THUG running for Congress physically assaults a reporter for having the audacity to ask him about his opinion of his party's indefensible healthcare plan. His spokesman then LIED about what happened. Judging by the response on Breitbart and other conservative outlets, many Trump supporters see this as a positive development.

All true. It's just one of many reasons why the Democrats lost so badly in 2016.
