Trump Approval Bounces Back

https://politicalwire.com/2018/01/31/trump-approval-bounces-back/

"SNIP........

A new Monmouth poll finds President Trump’s job rating now stands at 42% to 50% after Congress passed his tax bill. Last month his approval was 32% to 56%.

Also interesting: Democrats now lead the generic congressional ballot by just two points, 47% to 45%.

Said pollster Patrick Murray: “The generic congressional ballot is prone to bouncing around for a bit until the campaign really gets underway later this year. But Democrats who counted on riding public hostility toward the tax bill to retake the House may have to rethink that strategy.”

Barring a war, we all know that the bounce won’t last for long.

I think it was Chris Matthews last night that referred to them as Dancing with the Stars regular people.

Yep that sums them up in a nutshell. Totally clueless and gullible people. I am betting his bounce will be gone by next week.

and chasing impeachment pipe dreams that'll never happen in this Congress.

We need to shift the conversation back to healthcare, Medicaid cuts etc.
