Darn Contras. It's interesting how much slack is usually given to Republican presidents in that respect. Makes the Orange One's accomplishment stand out even more.

The Contras wouldn't impact his popularity polls until later.

Both Bushs benefited from war boosts, whereas both Clinton and Obama were subject to relentless attacks from the right.

But... 8 days!

bombing in Lebanon.

Democrats at the time never even considered doing anything remotely similar to what the Republicans did after Benghazi. And that is in spite of the fact that hundreds of people died in the 1983 Beirut attack.

You just have to look really, really carefully as they shed them as time goes by much like a snake sheds its skin.

Need a starting point. Where did Jr start at. in 2001 er late 2001 etc country was united behind the president. well most of them. (gosh who voted against the war in 2002, not many but one of note )

Then of course Obama I believe had one of the highest approval ratings for an exiting President. Was always going to be a tough pill to swallow. But I'm trying to put that blame issue behind me. Not perfect but trying. I do have a chuckle over Reagan. lemme guess. Made a deal with Iran right. smh I'd take Reagan anyday to this idiot. But I say that with some hesitance. Pence is much worse and I smell Pence's work here.

Yeah, him taking THAT long to get into the disapproval column makes me sort of side-eye this poll, even though I KNOW tRumputin's extremely unpopular already.

But all of us have to live for 4 years with this baffoon now because you'all made a mistake.

I almost loathe these people who suddenly decided they may have made a mistake than those irredeemable deplorables that will back him no matter what he does.

That's IF under a tRumputin DOJ we CAN still vote in the numbers I KNOW would come out to vote, meaning Democrats, because voter suppression and voter disenfranchisement, crosschecking, purging of voter rolls will be on steroids this next year. Secondly, how do we KNOW whether or not if under a tRumputin DOJ russia won't be "allowed" or even "encouraged" to interfere again into our elections in whatever way they WANT to.

You can imagine what would happen if complaints of voter disenfranchisement/suppression, civil rights etc. was documented and sent to AG Sessions by Dems/POC alleging voter voter suppression/disenfranchisement, civil rights violations?

NOTHING at all wold be investigated or looked into ahead of the 2018 mid-terms or 2020 GE (Also a Redistricting year).

he'll just brush this off and bring up how wrong the November 2016 election polls were, as if all polls are to be discounted.
