    Shaun King Retweeted Donald J. Trump

    I actually believe this poll is accurate. I think it's despicable, but accurate. I fully believe Trump's approval ratings are around 50%. Underestimating how much he resonates across the country would be a grave mistake.https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/985529299905187840 …

    Just hit 50% in the Rasmussen Poll, much higher than President Obama at same point. With all of the phony stories and Fake News, it’s hard to believe! Thank you America, we are doing Great Things.

        Totally agree with this. We listen to the echo chamber at our own expense. The reality is that 45 is achieving the desired GOP agenda: deregulation, immigration, Supreme Court, federal judgeships. List goes on. Voters may dislike his style but still approve of the results

        Rasmussen only calls landlines. The poll is heavily biased toward older white people.

        Rasmussen does automated surveys over landlines - not cell phones. Which means of the predominantly older voters who answer poll calls from bots on landlines, he's only at 50%. Maybe guys who have lots to hide shouldn't compare the FBI to Nazi Germany the week they're sworn in. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/985529299905187840 …

        All true considerations. AND I still wouldn't take the results lightly if we want a clear path to real progress for everyone, not just white conservatives who are willing to keep investing in border walls and coal.

        Definitely. I posted this to keep what i perceive as positive progress momentum, however small.

        No, it's not accurate. Rasmussen poll is an outlier that has always leaned to the right wing.pic.twitter.com/DTnRLwiqsq

        50% of people that still answer land lines, a pretty narrow demographic

        It's somewhere in between Rasmussen and MSM polls. But don't underestimate the Trumpsters and the Russians. #TheResistance #TrumpRussia

        I certainly hear your point and I think pulling out one poll like this is intellectually dishonest which is exactly what I would expect from @realDonaldTrump

        With our country's history I'm just glad it's somewhere between 40 and 50 and not 65.

        You don't have a good grasp of things, then. If that poll were true you wouldn't have so many GOPers jumping ship and Dems winning so many early contests. You'll see in November 2018
