538 is a real source. What do you mean?

Trump has been at about 40%

Obama had 3 or 4 different years where he spent the year in the low 40's. I'm not arguing for Trump. I'm saying don't put much stock in polls. If you look at pre-election polls, HRC won the election.

I don't put a ton of stock in polls but come on. Don't be illogical. It is lunacy to compare Obama's with Trump's

Why is that? We have just over a year of data for Trump. People's opinions change constantly. You have that mindset because you associate with mostly Trump haters, so in your mind everyone hates Trump.

Look at the way Obama's approval ratings fluctuated throughout his presidency.

You literally said that Trump had a similar approval rating to Obama after 1 year.

And I have that mindset because the facts back it up. Trump's approval rating isn't an opinion. Cmon, man.

What facts?

1. We have a strong economy.
2. He did away with the Obamacare mandate (now I'm not forced to buy a product I don't want)
3. He got our corporate taxes rate closer to being in line with the rest of the world.
4. Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court.
5. He cut regulations for small businesses. I know you're not a business owner. But the regulations were killing us.
6. He declared Jerusalem the capital.
7. He has gotten ISIS under control. Something Obama couldn't do.

His resume looks pretty go so far. Now give me your "facts" as to where he has not done a good job.

And yes, at the end of the first year, they had a similar approval rating.

I didn't say anything about if he was doing a good job or not. I just said that he has historically low approval ratings so far. There is your fact.

You can me two biased links and something that I have no clue where it came from. I gave you an actual reputable polling company.

Yes he does have low polling. I never argued that, but in December 2017 and December 2009, their numbers were very close.
