DONALD TRUMP'S APPROVAL RATING STILL SINKING AFTER HURRICANE HARVEY

 

http://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-approval-rating-lowest-hurricane-harvey-sinking-republicans-655885

 

As the Lone Star State attempts to recover from the storm, Trump is just one percentage point away from dipping back down to his record low approval rating while in office. Trump may want to be wary, as former President George W. Bush’s approval ratings never fully recovered after Hurricane Katrina. That storm crippled the state of Louisiana and New Orleans for years, and it dealt a blow to the reputation of his administration.

 

Bush's approval rating dropped to just 43.9 percent during his fifth year in office, after much of the public disapproved of the White House’s response to the tragic event.

Former President Barack Obama suffered a big drop in popularity following his "botched" response to the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, dipping to nearly 44 percent as a majority of the public lost its confidence in the 44th president.

How Trump's approval rating is affected by possibly the most disastrous storm Texas has ever faced will largely depend on his response throughout the days and weeks ahead. The president has been steadily tweeting about the storm and about his confidence in Texas’s first responders, as well as in his government’s ability to assist in reconstructing locales like Rockport, Texas.

Meanwhile, he’s also been releasing bombshells ever since the storm reached the United States, including issuing his first presidential pardon—for the controversial former Arizona Sherriff Joe Arpaio, who gained notoriety for his hardline stance on both legal and illegal immigration.

Nothing that Brownie and a few thousand FEMA trailers can't help.

No trashing that. Texas needs all the help it can get from the country and it should get it. THIS is putting America first.

So stop trashing the President on this matter, because he has been very proactive.  Local TV station got Vice-President Pence on the phone, and he detailed (exhaustively) exactly what was being done from the Federal side.  Even more Fed personnel are on the way.  This is at least all that, if not more than, anyone could ask.

Trump gets no flack from me on the TX thing. It's all hands on deck, and full throttle on all engines.

I think the implication is that despite FEMA and The Whitehouse executing well on the storm, his poll results are falling because of other factors when he should be getting a bump.  The nation is fully behind Texas.

Despite the horrible situation in TX, the country is still concerned with the so-called president's erratic behavior.
