      You're stating ratings without even providing a source. That's dumb.

      The best source for ratings is Reuters, who correctly predicted Trump's win, unlike any other, because it was based on a legit poll.

      CNN did a poll that said Clinton had a 98% chance of winning.

      Reuter's shows Trump at just over 50% now, higher than on election day.

      Quit trying to delegitimize the Truth to make yourself feel better.

      His ratings are much higher than you want to act like.

        First of all, being president is not a popularity contest. 
        We saw during the campaigns how inaccurate the polls are.  I think the main reason for that is that the polls are conducted in the heavily populated city centers - which is the only places where Trump was not popular.  If you look at a map of counties that voted for Trump in the election, Trump won by a massive landslide of counties, but because of the liberals in the highly populated city centers, the results look much different.  It is interesting that the map of areas that Hillary won corresponds almost Exactly with the areas of highest crime rates.

        The liberals are like babies who have had their pacifier (Obama) taken away.  They cannot accept that they have a new daddy who is not going to give them their lollipops and rattles.

          @wonten:

          More Americans think President Trump is doing a poor job than for any other recent president.
          Polling ahead of President Trump’s 100th day in office, which is April 29, has found he is proving unpopular among Americans.
          According to an NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll released Sunday, 45 percent of Americans believe Trump is doing a poor job.
          Of those who believe Trump is doing a good job, 19 percent say he is off to a fair start, while 35 percent believe he is doing a good or great job.
          This compares badly with his predecessor, President Obama.
          In 2009, a combined 54 percent of Americans said Barack Obama was off to a good or great start within his first 100 days as president.
          25 percent said Obama was off to a fair start, while 21 percent called his performance to that point poor – less than half as many as for Trump.
          Trump’s overall approval rating has slid another four points from last month, also.
          It now sits at 40 percent, lower than any of his Democratic and Republican predecessors.
          Obama’s approval rating stood at 61 percent at this point in his administration, while George W. Bush’s was at 56 percent and Bill Clinton’s was at 52 percent.

          Fake News… the riots have gone into a slumber. People are accepting that he's the legitimate President, and you are just trying to sew discord and undermine him because you just can't let it go. He won. Ok? He's the Commander in Chief now. Ok? If he was really doing so poorly, with reducing the debt, to creating new jobs... than you would think the riots would only grow stronger. But that is not the reality of the situation. The reality is that a sense of normalcy is coming back and things are settling down now that the evil witch Hillary has been knocked off her thrown and her criminal behavior is laid bare for the world to see, as well as the democratic plantation, with all it's corrupt emails that prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are criminals. Who cares who hacked them? What matters is that the hacks revealed the Truth about them - they are horrible people who committed horrible crimes. They want to blame Trump and Russia and whoever they can. The fact you all try to evade and cannot swallow is that they did in fact commit horrible crimes against the people of this nation and you are simply flabbergasted and unable to accept the actual Truth. The polls mean nothing, even if they are a True reflection (which they're not). Polls are almost ALWAYS fake.

              @tk327:

              All unofficial pools are inaccurate by default. The participants are 'chosen' (by demography) and do not reflect the overall opinions of the real population.

              The same reason why Trump wins while 95% polls conduct by major news outlet claimed he never had a chance.

              The poll did accurately choose the more popular candidate , it just wasn't effective at segmenting those sample populations into electoral groups and proportioning actually voting turnout capacity.

              CNN's poll said that Trump had less than a 3% chance of winning.    This is on top of them, and other media outlets, admitting they did everything they could to ensure a Hillary win.

              Social media was part of the conspiracy to ensure a Hillary win.

                  @raphjd:

                  It's almost comical how he is now downplaying the first 100 days benchmark, when he was the one who specifically made a contract and promise during the campaign about all the things he would do.

                  Do you really want to go there?

                  Obama promised to end no bid contracts, yet he used them.

                  He promised to end GWB era spying on US citizens, yet he expanded it beyond belief.

                  He promised to protect whistle blowers, yet he did the complete opposite.

                  He played politics over equality for gays.

                  It's a pretty long list of Obama election lies.

                  Yes, in fact I DO want to go there….but not where YOU'RE going. In case you weren't paying attention this thread is about President TRUMP and the failures that have built up to his first 100 days in office.

                  Please stick to the topic. Feel free to talk about former President Obama by starting a different thread.  :laugh:

                  Also- if you do want to deflect criticism leveled on Trump, or want to defend him in some way, please stop falling into the non-sequitur of listing the failings of Democrats like Hillary or Obama. Don't be intentionally dense. It's like saying- don't jail me for stealing bread- that guy over there stole even more bread than I did. Please.  ::)

                  Umm, try reading the thread title.    The OP brought your lord and saviour, Obama, into this thread with the title.

                    Maybe, but you had Cenk from TYT on your side.

                      Not initially - he only "changed his opinion" when he figured that most people wanted Bernie. Sadly, it has gotten to the point TYT is FAR less progressive than it used to be - although I would say Democracy Now! is still quite good. Amy Goodman is a GREAT journalist.

                        Bernie SANDERS sucks!!! He's a socialist. He wants everyone to have free stuff like Obamaphones. Nothing is free. Someone has to pay for it. Robbing Peter to pay Paul. It will never fly, no matter how good you think it is. You want heart surgeons to make the same money as the guy sitting on his couch playing video games. Not gonna happen. The democrats are lazy losers who think their existence is a birthright that deserves the same freedoms that the military who voted for Trump gets, when they actually go to protect you losers in the face of guns and bombs. It's stupid.

                          Don't be simplistic. I did read the thread title- and the subject is DONALD TRUMP and how unpopular he is in his first 100 days= yes it does bring in Obama but only as a point of reference. If you go on to read the OP body of text it's all about Trump being an unpopular president. Hence, the thread is about Trump and his first 100 days.

                          Besides, why are you fixating again on Obama? Trump is president now. Why not share with us WHY you think he's a good president? What actual accomplishments has he had that really gets you all excited? Come on- you can engage better than that.

                          Has he started his border wall yet?
                          Has he gotten his Muslim ban out of the legal mess it is in yet?
                          Has he repealed and replaced Obamacare yet?
                          Has he "locked her up"?
                          Has he released his tax returns yet?
                          Has he called China a "currency manipulator" yet?
                          Has he passed his tax reforms yet?
                          Well?
                          Let's talk Trump!  😉

                          Tell someone you love them today, because life is short.
                          But shout it at them in German, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

                            I'm glad you admit Obama, your lord and saviour, is part of thread since he's in the title and directly being compared to Trump.

                            Puh'lease, liberals kept throwing up GWB every time someone was critical of your lord and saviour.  Stop being a hypo.., er um liber…., um hypocrite.

                            BTW, I'm still waiting for you rancid liberals to condemn the violence you guys have been committing lately.  I know it won't happen, because you feel violence is justified when your side does it.

                              So you use their behavior as an excuse for yours? Sorry to burst your bubble but you don't get a free pass to overgeneralize. I NEVER defended Obama by hiding behind Bush. That's just weak.  ::)
                              Besides, please point to ANY thread or response where I have praised Obama as my "lord and savior." Sorry I'm not a blind Obama booster. Just because I find Trump loathsome and utterly infantile doesn't mean I automatically am praising Obama or Hillary.

                              Why can't you answer anything I raised? Counter all the Trump criticism by talking about Trump's wins…his accomplishments.
                              Go on> or do you have nothing here? Coming up empty because Trump has been so incapable of following through on his promises? He backpedals so much he's already back to campaigning mode.  ;D

                                Unlike you and the rest of your lunatic group, I'm not a Trump Supporter or hater.

                                And yet again, you refuse to condemn the violence from your own.  I bet you feel superior to non liberals with that.

                                  Once again, you are totally wrong.  Despite being stonewalled by the obstructionist democrats, Trump has been working night and day 7 days a week to push his agenda.. and making progress on all of it.  Obamacare is dead.. it's just a matter of replacing it.  The muslims, the wall, North Korea, the tax cut, the supreme court justice.. all have or will be taken care of.

                                  But that aside.. just what did Obama (or Hillary for that matter)  ever accomplish?  Pretty much.. NOTHING!  I have asked and asked groups of liberals online what accomplishments they can list for Obama and Hillary, and they never have any.  Why don't you give it a shot Bore?

                                  One of the most frequent attempts people make when replying to  that question are Hillary supporting some healthcare program for children.  Wow.. as if Hillary was the only one that supported that?  Who OPPOSES a healthcare bill that benefits children?  Nobody.

                                  By the way.. Obama is NOW showing his true colors.. in that he will say pretty much anything if paid enough money to say it.  Even the liberals are criticizing him now.  I bet his fee for saying "Muslim Extremist" is $100,000.

                                    HAHA! Obama and Hillary are pieces of HUMAN GARBAGE, LIARS. How can you actually support them? Only if you feel the victimhood vibe that anyone who is black, woman, or gay can do no wrong. It's the game the CIA likes to play. They put ACTORS up in front of you and you just don't get it.
