    Popularity and approval rating are not the same. Approval trating is asking peoplehow he is doing as POTUS. Popularity determines if you know who they are.

      Not if you know who they are but if you like them. Trump is well liked by many if not most Americans. A decent amount of people downright practically worship the guy. In the sense that he is a dumb senile oaf he is not classically charismatic, but he has the attention and artificial grandeur attached to him that is usually related to charisma.

        No, popularity is if you recognize the name

        Likeability is if you like them.

        Approval rating is how you feel about the job they are doung.

        These things all have real meanings in polling. There are no approval polls for the first day available immediately. His first approval poll will come out on Monday.

        Your perception based on what you see around ypu might not reflect how the nation feels as a whole.

          You are mislead. Have you ever been a political activist and done door to door polling? I have. What is your alleged source in this? You are spreading misinformation on what popularity polling is.

            Yes, I have assembled polls too as a poll worker. I studied polling as part of my college degree.

            You have no clue what you are talking about and frankly I don’t think going door to door and asking the questions means you understand polling as you weren’t collating and assembling the data. Had you done that part you would realize that you cannot do an approval poll in 24 hours.
