WHAT WILL IT TAKE?

A recent Reuters/Ipsos poll, completed the Monday after No Kings, showed Trump’s approval rating has gone up by two points to 42%.  His approval ratings are now above those of both George W. Bush and Barack Obama at this point in their respective second terms. Apparently, the notion that Trump will destroy himself and his movement from within is wishful thinking.

Of equal importance is the fact that the opposition party, the Democrats, are far more unpopular than Donald Trump, with less than 30% approval.  Seventy percent of Americans view the Democrats unfavorably. Seven out of ten. And, although the GOP has so far caught more of the blame for the government shutdown, the gap is beginning to narrow.
