It was also Rasmussen 23 months ago. I get tht you don’t agree with Rasmussen, but unless you can show that their methods have recently changed, this is still an upward shift.
Recent attacks in the media…over everything…and it still is an upward movement.
Even if you don’t buy the 52%, what it does show is a dramatic move upward after his state of the Union message, where he managed to act like an adult for an hour while the major opposition leader sat behind him making silly claps.
Maybe he can get a message from this. I doubt it.
I would attribute this to the SOTU address last week. He gave a very good and likeable performance. Now if he could only continue to be that guy, and stay off Twitter, stay off Hillary, stay off Fake News, stay off witch hunt, stay off being a big bully, and work for the good of the people and only tweet about what he did that was good today. He might turn into a pretty good presidential person. But until then. He’s just a school yard bully calling all the other kids in the school yard names to make himself look and feel better.
This is nothing more than a State of the Union bump. He hasn’t done anything else since the shut down ended. It’ll drop back down, and will then be ignored when it gets back into the mid/low 40s.
Actually, I remember specifically that you, at one point during the election, dismissed Rasmussen when it showed Hillary ahead and you looked around for other polls.
Rasmussen is a funny beast for Trump and his followers. When it shows Trump doing well, they cite it. When it shows him doing poorly, polls are #FakeNews and they don’t get talked about.
