While GURPS and the rest of the crew try desperately to rationalize their ignorance...the world continues on:

This is a record not to be coveted: Donald Trump is wrapping up a year in office with the lowest average approval rating of any elected president in his first year.

That’s according to polling by Gallup, which shows that Trump has averaged just a 39 percent approval rating since his inauguration. The previous low was held by Bill Clinton, whose first-year average stood 10 points higher than Trump’s, at 49 percent.

Recent surveys show most Americans view Trump as a divisive figure and even question his fitness for office. One relative bright spot for Trump is his handling of the economy, though even there his ratings are not as high as might be expected given a relatively strong economy.

The economy is doing well, yet a majority of American disapprove of our incompetent President. As expected prior to the election, the US economy did get stronger in 2017. The world economy surprised to the upside. Inflation is low, unemployment is low...yet the majority of Americans disapprove. More American disapprove of Trump today than they did a year ago.

Why would that be: because the majority of Americans understand that Trump is unfit to be President. It is that simple

So much winning!!! I'm sick of all the winning.


Remember when he said he would be so busy he would never leave the White House?

Unlike his predecessors who volunteered on MLK day Trump took another golfing trip.

Meanwhile news broke that he paid off a Porn Star to the tune of $130K while married to his wife.


He has proven to be lazy, incompetent, crude, uneducated and a liar. No wonder his supporters still support him. Maybe they see themselves in him?

You missed all the subsequent backpedaling and denials by those that supposedly "broke" the story. You need to up your game, SB.

And you have? His approval numbers keep sinking so it seems Transporter and I may be onto something while you cling to a sinking ship like the small minded rat you are. Thinking its amusing to make up nicknames for people? You really do aspire to be just like dear leader. What a sad little basement dweller you are.

What’s the problem? To you and the others, the only problem is that Trump is your President and you hate that.

Economy is doing great
Obamacare mandate is gone and many can now afford healthcare because all the BS stuff we had to buy we don’t have to buy now.
Oh, remember ISIS, of course you don’t.
North Korea is playing nice with South Korea
A great tax bill and stimulus plan.

I’m lovin’ life

Good for you. The majority of the country doesn't agree with you because they understand the Tax bill for what it was. A money grab by the wealthy. Did you not notice all the benefits expire for the poor and middle class while the ones for the rich don't?

The economy was doing fine when Trump came into office as was the unemployment rate.

As to North Korea we are back to where we were before Trump antagonized them. Great.


The mandate had nothing to do with your affording healthcare or not. If anything doing away with it will cause premiums to rise for everyone else. Jesus. After almost ten years of taking about insurance do you still not understand how it works?

You are so delusional that it's hilarious. How can one small mind get so many facts completely bass ackwards??

This, for example, is 100% incorrect.

I get to keep my old policy that Obama banned and my old doctor .....and you didn’t comment on ISIS who was eliminated because Trump let the generals fight the war and not micromanage it from the Whitehouse.

....but really, and be honest. What has Trump specifically done to hurt your income, your lifestyle, and your freedoms.

Remember when he said he would be so busy he would never leave the White House? - No but remember the 500 times Obama Said I could Keep my Doctor
Unlike his predecessors who volunteered on MLK day Trump took another golfing trip. - Who Gives A F U C K
Meanwhile news broke that he paid off a Porn Star to the tune of $130K while married to his wife.

He has proven to be lazy, incompetent, crude, uneducated and a liar. No wonder his supporters still support him. Maybe they see themselves in him?

Incompetent - that is YOUR OPINION many of us admire how he operates
Crude - Finally A NON Politician that speaks to the TRUTH of a Matter - that is YOUR OPINION many of us admire how he operates
Liar - name a politician that doesn't ... Pelosi, Schumer, Ried, Obama, Hoyer ... etc

I have to disagree with that statement. The mandate is gone but the bullsh!t PACA compliant policies are still in affect. MD basically still has only one major insurance provider offering individual policies.
