Gallup: PEOTUS approval lowest in decades

Posted by | January 13, 2017 10:50 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics

Donald Trump heads for office as one of the least popular president-elects.

Trump has historically low approval ratings for how he has handled his transition to the White House, with 51 percent of Americans saying they disapprove of his performance, according to a Gallup poll released Friday. Only 44 percent of Americans said they approved.

These figures set him far apart from his predecessors. A week before Inauguration Day in 2009, 83 percent of Americans said they approved of President Barack Obama’s management of the transition, with only 12 percent saying they disapproved. Even George W. Bush, who, like Trump, lost the popular vote but won the Electoral College, had 61 percent approval to 25 percent disapproval a week out from Inauguration Day in 2001.

    Trump will clearly be the most hated man in America long before the end of his term. That he can’t keep his mouth shut or stop the tweeting makes it a virtual guarantee lol.
