I'm not disagreeing with you there.
So why can't he get over 50% of the country to approve the job he's doing?
Pretty tough to get a high approval rating when about 95% of the media coverage is negative about him. Not complaining about that - it is what it is.
1) RCP average is 43.3% approval rate right now. Cherry picking to use the top one in that group.
2) Trump DESERVES the negative press coverage. The press isn't making up this stuff (as pointed out in the Mueller Report that you didn't read). I submit to you that it is just "press coverage". Everything he does is negative. He can't get Fed people through because he doesn't take the time to vet them first. He has filled his administration with criminals and unethical people, William Barr being the latest. He lies constantly. He has said he will not cooperate with any subpoena...one of the articles of impeachment drawn up on Nixon was over that. All the media outlets went nuts over the excellent jobs report today. What the hell do you want them to say about Trump? He doesn't do anything that is productive at all. He's a very negative person...the US is a victim, he's a victim, we are going to punish other nations with tariffs, I am going to direct border agents to do illegal things. He's a mess. He's a serial liar. He's a criminal. He is a major threat to the rule of law and our democracy unlike anyone in my lifetime and before. I'll say something positive about him -- as far as we know, he hasn't personally strangled to death a baby, and the weird thing about that comment is that there is actually a chance he has.
I'm sorry Sally, but you are a not a smart person to be defending such a horrible person and a horrible President the way you are. I maintain that anyone still supporting him today is either JUST stupid or also racist. You pick.
I will say about you that you have shown glimpses of reasonableness and that of all the Trumpers here, you have the most promise of being no longer one (that means no longer stupid and/or racist). How can that be? If you are stupid, are you not ALWAYS stupid?
