Economy 52,835 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 https://thehill.com/blogs/in-the-know/in-the-know/446432-trump-says-he-was-surprised-by-meghan-markles-nasty-comments Trumps approval ratings rise to 48% amid a string economy. In fact 62% of Americans approve of where the economy is going! PS: Source link for some reason takes u to a story on Trumps comments on Megan Markle first.

Economy 52,835 Posted June 1, 2019 Author Share Posted June 1, 2019 Main reasons for strong US Economy: #1 US energy boom creating high paying jobs, plus preventing energy price surges that usually happen towards late cycles in economy! - Not credited to Trump #2 The 2008 financial crisis corrected a lot of imbalances such as household debt and over production of cars and homes. Not credited to Trump #3 A trend that was already underway by Obama's leadership. Not credited to Trump #4 Sound monetary policy by the Federal reserve. Not credited to Trump #5 Tax cuts stimulus. Credit to Trump. ---------- Only 1/5 reasons I see for strong US economy have anything to do with Trump and even that reason is questionable because it's not sustainable long term given the high deficits! He doesn't deserve squat credit for economy! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
uo111 5,282 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Hmmm, but what is the truth though? https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/446347-trumps-approval-rating-hits-highest-point-in-two-years "Trump’s job approval rating in the Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll survey is higher than what other recent polls have found. The president’s job approval rating is at 42.5 percent in the RealClearPolitics average. A recent Rasmussen Reports survey found Trump at 48 percent, but six other recent polls found him ranging between 38 percent and 44 percent." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rasmussen is a more conservative poller from my knowledge. That poll always keep Trump's approval ratings higher. Trump approval and Trump approval on economy are also different polls which might confuse some. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean polls are being done all the time and have margin for error given they are samples and not a census Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JusKeepBreathin 19,311 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 I'm sorry but the Dow Jones hasn't seen much improvement since Trump Tax cuts that were signed on Dec 2017. I actually think we are at the same exact place we're we're when he signed it as we are right now maybe lower since his tarifs on Mexico.

ctherainbow 3,162 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 His average approval ratings in polls have crashed recently, actually. I read this article earlier, and the Harris poll seems to be an outlier in terms of general approval ratings. Even Rasmussen, which is generally a Trump-favorable pollster, has been showing downward trends for a while now. I'm talkin' 'bout forever, baby.

Whispering 18,865 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 According to fivethirtyeight, he’s still hovering around the forty per cent approval mark. Trump pretty much stays in that range now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
