Go Figure

Trump’s approval rating is at an all-time high among Republicans.  Approximately 90% think he is doing a good job.  This is the highest rating for a president by members of his own party since the post 9-11 period when George W. Bush was in office.

Supporters cite the booming economy, the deal with North Korea, the robust exercise of American power against other countries, the increased border security, and the unfairness of the press toward a man doing his best.


They do not cite environmental issues, the increase in racial tensions, the rejection of science, the constant lying, the decline of American values, the alienation of our allies, the demonization of people who receive public assistance, the lack of health care, the support for dictators, the tax cut that benefits the wealthy, the scandals in at least three cabinet departments, the treatment of Native Americans, or the politicalization of the federal courts.
