Trump needs to reach about 31% popularity

[Motownman78]

Before we win a district as red as GA-06.

1. yes, and what confounds most of us

is how the hell can a demonstrated liar, crook, traitor, narcissist, grotesque human is at 36 percent approval.

3. Republicans are still willing to give him a chance.

It is hard for the vast majority of people to admit they made a mistake. Look at all the CYA in the workplace. It will take the Republican voter to feel pain before they change their minds.

2. That's about where I have it as well.

And he's on his way. Bear in mind: this is still supposed to be the "honeymoon period".

4. I don't think so.

I think Partisan politics are so entrenched that it doesn't matter how popular or unpopular the "president" is, They will vote Republicans. It's like some weird sport team thought process. I'm just so tired of fighting. I'm hoping to beat back the man and his agenda, but on days like this it feels like we're treading water.

6. If that is true, look at 2006 and 2008

And we gained 20% to 25% of voters who voted Repub in 2016.

7. Thank you.

Sometimes I just need a good reminder. I appreciate it.

8. We will see changes when Trump gets to around 31%

approval rating. Or if he does something that affects the upper middle class like bad trade deals, another Iraq war, removing of pre-existing condition coverage.

5. He has plenty of time to go well below that before November 2018!

[Kablooie]

9. He's staying around 38-39% pretty consistently for the past month.

No indications of it dropping any more than that.

10. Between 18 and 21% for 6+ months BEFORE the election and 5% dem over vote for a gerrymandered

... district to flip.

The only reason I thought this district was going to flip was because the number of minority voters I saw in some of the clips, I thought it was more diverse but its not... what the gerrymandering did was dilute the voting of some of the minority areas by including them in red areas.

fuckin bastards

11. The majority of the people in the 6th District of GA

Are among the wealthiest people in the country and it is easily one of the wealthiest districts in the South. These people didn't vote for Trump because they needed him to bring the jobs back, they voted for him to keep their neighborhoods white and keep their taxes low. They don't regret their vote, because they didn't really need anything from Trump except the two things that every Republican promises, a lack of diversity and low taxes.

12. But when the new healthcare law hits

and costs hundreds of thousands of jobs and tanks the stock market, they will care than.

13. You might be right

But sadly those people seem to always that golden parachute standing by. They always seem to come out smelling like roses, while the poor and working class take the real brunt.

[Motownman78]

14. I am right

just look at 2006 and 2008.
