Fox News Poll: Trump approval up, voter ratings on economy best in decades

In addition, approval of the job President Trump is doing on the economy stands at 52 percent (41 percent disapprove). That’s just one-point off his high of 53 percent last summer, and up from 48-46 percent in May.

It should be much higher (and should've ALREADY been).

God help and bless our President in spite of the tsunami(s) coming against him and our country. Protect and defend him. May all the prayer warriors come together more and more and lift up our President and this country, in the name of Jesus, the only begotten Son of You, the living God, the God of the living, amen.

Isaiah 54:15 and Isaiah 54:17 come to mind.

Enough is enough.

Praying.

Let it rain.

Trump would be in the mid 50's if he would get off Twitter and stop saying ridiculous things in speeches.

Donald inherited a fantastically strong economy. Economists fear he'll be leading us into a recession for the 2020s but for the moment it's still healthy.

Fox News has characterized Donald's overall ratings as being "underwater."

Here’s why his overall rating remains underwater: He receives net negative marks on border security (44 approve - 52 disapprove), immigration (41-54), international trade (40-49), Iran (39-46), North Korea (39-49), and health care (38-51).

The president’s lowest marks are on race relations (32-57 percent), where more voters disapprove than approve by 25 points. He was underwater by 22 points in October 2018 (35-57 percent).

Over half, 57 percent, don’t believe Trump respects racial minorities, including 73 percent of non-whites.

Some 34 percent think the president does respect minorities, down from 41 percent in 2017. That decline is mostly due to a 14-point drop among Republicans (68 percent now vs. 82 percent in 2017).

This is refreshing to read!:
Majorities think that Trump went too far in tweets criticizing four minority Democratic Congresswomen, and believe telling a person of color to go back to the country they came from is a racist thing to say.

The new poll, released Wednesday, finds 63 percent think Trump’s tweets crossed the line. Far fewer, 27 percent, see them as an acceptable political attack.

Thirty-three percent of Republicans join 88 percent of Democrats in saying the tweets crossed the line. Some key electoral groups agree: 73 percent of suburban women, 68 percent of independents, and 64 percent of voters living in close counties (where Hillary Clinton and Trump were within 10 points in 2016).


Also refreshing:
Six in 10 voters are concerned about the treatment of migrants detained on the U.S.-Mexico border, including 31 percent who feel “extremely” concerned. Most Democrats (82 percent) are concerned, while a majority of Republicans (58 percent) is not.

- the cost increases on foreign imports resulting from tariffs imposed by the President will be downloaded onto the average American consumer, any wage increases over the last 2 1/2 years will be effectively negated

- America's resident "narcissist and chief" in the White House " only assumes responsibility for "success stories," were the economy to tank there's always the Clintons to blame

Trump approval up voter rating on economy best in decades

The DOW dropped 800 points and Trump is already blaming the Federal Reserve chairman - given that this President promised to recruit "only the best people" for his Administration, he has habit of attacking the very people he appointed, leading one to believe that not even "The Donald" is convinced that these are "the best people!"

If the DOW had gone up 800 points, however, I seriously doubt that this President would have been willing to share any of the praise - not even with the Chairman of the Federal Reserve!

That's been the one bright spot; the expansion, dating back to 2009, has been continuing:
united-states-gdp.png

But that growth was at the cost of a huge tax cut for the wealthy that (and no one really believed this) was supposed to "pay for itself." In fact, we'll have a trillion dollar debt this year, with no relief in sight. And that's slowing the economy.

The U.S. economy grew somewhat more slowly at the end of last year than initially thought. Forecasts suggest that slowdown will continue in 2019.


The Commerce Department now says the economy grew at an annual rate of 2.2 percent in the fourth quarter of last year. That's down from the department's original estimate of 2.6 percent growth. The revised numbers — which include more complete information — suggest somewhat lower spending by consumers and state and local governments, as well as reduced business investment.

Meantime:


His approval, in the average of all polls, is underwater by double digits, again:

The good news for him is that Rassmussen, which depends on land lines only, has him down by a a mere -7 percent.
