Trump approval poll from RCP to 19 June:
This closed up significantly after the Singapore meeting between Trump and Kim. It could easily spread again if the raging over the caging of kids on the US Mexico border continues.

/ June 21, 2018The article misses the connection between the words and the actions. Trump succeeds in taking drastic disruptive actions by attacking and disarming his opponents with drastic disruptive language. He is not there for business as usual. Those who are, hate him intensely.
Gezza
/ June 21, 2018As you suffer from TBS and thus think everything he says or does is brilliant you probably completely miss the point.
Alan Wilkinson
/ June 21, 2018Nope. I just judge objectively. Most people can’t.
Gezza
/ June 21, 2018I can.
Alan Wilkinson
/ June 21, 2018Sometimes.

/ June 21, 2018Trump is Al’s secret …’inner man’…the person he would love to be..be happy in your own skin..Al.
Gezza
/ June 21, 2018I’ve met Al & got to know him well, Blazer. Al’s happy in his own skin. Our occasional political differences don’t change my impression of him & unfortunately the bastard’s actually a nice chap. Mostly.
Blazer
/ June 21, 2018absolutely..here’s an example of the..’inner man’…
Alan Wilkinson
/ June 21, 2018I am perfectly happy in my own skin, B, with absolutely no wish to be a politician or anything I am not. I am just fascinated and entertained by the way so many misjudge Trump so badly.
Gezza
/ June 21, 2018There’s difference between misjudging him badly & judging him bad, Alan. You are streets ahead of Trump when it comes to personal ethics.
Alan Wilkinson
/ June 21, 2018Probably. But he is streets ahead of me for taking huge risks to make big things happen. I recognise it takes all sorts in this world.
