International News Title: Trump gets least positive reaction in at least 20 years (Record breaking lowest approval) CNN poll: 48% reacted positively to SOTU speechWashington (CNN) — Almost half of Americans who watched President Donald Trump's first State of the Union address -- 48% -- say they had a "very positive" impression of the speech, down from 57% of speech-watchers after his first address to match Barack Obama's rating after his first State of the Union address, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS. It's the lowest net positive rating for a State of the Union address since at least 1998, when CNN first asked the question. There is no equivalent poll for addresses before 1998. Some important caveats: This survey reflects the views of only those who watched the speech, not of all Americans. The poll was conducted among a group of Americans who said in prior interviews that they planned to watch the speech and were willing to be contacted after its conclusion. People who choose to watch a political speech tend to be more supportive of the speaker than the general population; this sample was about 7 points more Republican than the entire American population.
A narrow majority of viewers, 54%, says it thinks Trump has the right priorities, down from 63% from a similar poll after his speech last year to a joint session of Congress. Not quite half, 45%, say he hasn't paid attention to the country's most important problems. Still, more than 6 in 10 viewers, 62%, say they think his policies will move the country in the right direction. But more than 4 in 10 people who watched the address say they are not confident in his abilities to carry out his duties as President. Only 56% of viewers say they think his policies are headed in the right direction on immigration -- down 6 points since his 2017 speech. His proposals on other issues are higher: Roughly 8 in 10 people who viewed Trump's address say he has the right direction on infrastructure and 7 in 10 say he's going the right direction on the economy. A majority of Americans who watched Trump's speech to Congress last year, 57%, said they had a very positive reaction. Two-thirds or more said Trump had the right priorities for the nation, his policies were headed the right direction and the speech made them feel more optimistic. Only 48% of viewers had a very positive view of Obama's first State of the Union address, though a larger portion had a somewhat positive reaction, giving him a net positive score of 78% in 2010. He also did better during his first address to Congress, just after being inaugurated in 2009. Then, 68% said they had a very positive view of his address. The CNN poll was conducted by SSRS on January 30, 2018, among 549 Americans who watched Trump's address. Respondents were first interviewed as part of a random national samples conducted from January 14-18 and January 25-28. In those interviews, respondents indicated they planned to watch Tuesday night's speech and said they were willing to be re-interviewed. Results for the full sample have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 4.2 percentage points; it is larger for subgroups. Poster Comment:

Trump made 75% approval with them. Of course CNN would produce a dismal poll like this. They're still the Clinton News Network and they're still pissed that she lost to Orange Mussolini. (They've downgraded him from Orange Hitler to Orange Mussolini because Hitler is a little over the top, even for them.)
#2. To: hondo68 (#0) Trump gets least positive reaction in at least 20 years (Record breaking lowest approval) It's because he doesn't address the increasing US debt of near 22, 000, 000, 000, 000 dollars that tax payers must pay. I guess other than my point just above ... everything is peachy-keen except for the increasing police state forced upon sovereign US Citizens trapped in their own homes or other domiciles by the federal government.

He's trying to keep up with the national debt numbers, to prop up the failing Trump quagmire swamp economy & Gulag Police State USA! ![]() #4. To: hondo68 (#3) I have quite a few "Wolf" primers. I got a super deal on a CASE of those. lol I also have a well rounded selection tho... even benchrest grade large rifle primers. I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح #5. To: GrandIsland, hondo68 (#4) benchrest grade large rifle primers How do you separate them away from all the rusted 50,000 that you claim in your mom's basement?
#6. To: buckeroo (#5) How do you separate them away from all the rusted None of my primers are "rusted"... cock cosset. I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح #7. To: GrandIsland (#6) Depends on the method of approach to ensure the stainless steel primer housings were passivized by qualified NADCAP suppliers; you don't have the money to pay for high grade primers or their housings. BTW, what the HELL is a "cock cosset."
#8. To: hondo68 (#0) I don’t think I have ever listened to any sotu speech. Polls are for political junkies and really are worthless. Jmho
#9. To: buckeroo (#7) BTW, what the HELL is a "cock cosset." If you walk up to the nearest mirror, tip you head back a little and open your fucking maw as wide as it can... then look into your huge gaping sperm bank... you will then know what a cock cosset is. I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح #10. To: GrandIsland (#9) You really should do something about your homosexual fantasies, FireIsland.
#11. To: GrandIsland (#9) If you walk up to the nearest mirror, tip you head back a little and open your fucking maw as wide as it can... then look into your huge gaping sperm bank... you will then know what a cock cosset is. Are you a gay .... elementary school cross walk guard?
#12. To: hondo68 (#0) I like Austin Peterson's hashtag... But Hondo, what makes you think Rand would be able to pull of a fraction of the positive changes Trump has so far? I like the guy, but Trump's got Big Mo. (Btw, whatever happened to his assailant? As a result of obsessing on all things Trump, we never get any follow up from them. The MSM sweeps everything that indicts their ilk under the rug. Rand must have recovered...I thought I saw him at the SOTU.)
#13. To: Tooconservative (#1) The CBS poll had twice as many respondents. Trump made 75% approval with them...Of course CNN would produce a dismal poll like this. Thanks for sharing that. 75% from CBS, eh? No wonder CNN buried the truth. The usual Hate-Trump MSM suspects keep on discrediting themselves. Btw, what might be the downgrade from "Orange Mussolini"?
#14. To: GrandIsland (#6) "cock cosset" Dunno where you come up with these zingers, but that one is hilarious.
#15. To: Liberator (#13) Btw, what might be the downgrade from "Orange Mussolini"? Don't be silly. Obviously, it would be Orange Franco. He'd be next in classic fascist pantheon.
#16. To: buckeroo (#11) Are you a gay I'm happy. Is that what you're asking, fudge-a-roo? I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح #17. To: Fred Mertz (#10) You really should do something about your homosexual fantasies, FireIsland. It's against the law in all 50 states to kill faggots (53 states if you're that potato, O'bunghole)... so I do keep those fantasies in check, Freds Ass Hurtz. I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح #18. To: Liberator (#14) Dunno where you come up with these zingers, but that one is hilarious. TY lol I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح #19. To: GrandIsland (#18) Yeah...LMAO sometimes...
#20. To: Tooconservative (#15) Obviously, it would be Orange Franco. He'd be next in classic fascist pantheon. Well done. Heh...
