Daily Presidential Tracking Poll


Wednesday, April 12, 2017

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows that 47% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Fifty-three percent (53%) disapprove.

The latest figures include 29% who Strongly Approve of the way Trump is performing and 43% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -14. (see trends).

Regular updates are posted Monday through Friday at 9:30 a.m. Eastern (sign up for free daily e-mail update).

Most voters support President Trump’s missile strike on Syria but feel further action against the Syrian government should come from the United Nations and not the United States alone.

Hi dumbass,

Maybe that's because intelligent folks know that Rassmusen is not a reliable poll??? Golly gee whiz GURPS...how many times do you have to be shown that your sources suck...before you will get the point? You consistently post the Rassmussen garbage and think it is real...just like your Dailycaller bullsh!t.

Hell, even most of your lefty friends are ready to throw Susan under the bus. You can only lie on TV so many times, right?

Then why do YOU keep quoting AP and others? You should only ever be quoting Nate Silver.

About as interesting as all the righties not harping on Sean Spicer's epic crank-step yesterday.





Which is to say, 'not interesting'.

Among the many problems with *opinion* poling - for example, willfully giving misleading information, difficulty in getting a representative sample and so forth - is - they have a kind of Heisenberg Uncertainty principle effect.

Others might call it a "bandwagon" effect - when a politician or a sports team or a movie or what have you starts to POLL in a positive direction - more people want to do the same.
When it goes the other way, more people want to do the same.

The POLLING can greatly change the item it is trying to measure.

So if you deliberately skew a poll in a direction you want it to go, you'll change the outcome over time.

If, say, after a big military strike, punditry, press and political types all agree it was a good thing - everyone else wants to agree, even if they have no idea what is going on.
Make a team POPULAR - and people will want to see them win. Make a team a villain (as has been done with success to the New England Patriots recently - or has always been true of the Yankees) and there will be lots of people who want to see them lose, even if they can't name a single player.

You want to see patterns with presidential tracking polls? They may differ in numbers, but they will almost always TREND in sync. You will not see one poll nosedive and another skyrocket. They correlate well.

I would like to add, it depends on how a question or topic is phrased ... do you think Trump quit beating his wife

and what neighborhoods they randomly call into ... is this Brooklyn NYC or Rural Southern Mississippi
