As Popular As Reagan
Leave a commentMarch 15, 2016 by Chris Kite
Apparently Americans (at least Democrats) approve of the way Obama is running the country. His approval numbers are up to 50% with 87% of Democrats approving.
Sure, Republican approval ratings are much lower. At 11% it is pretty obvious that the Muslim, Kenyan born, socialist, fascist, weak, tyrannical dictator is not quite as loved by Republicans.
But a key number is that he is as popular right now as Ronald Reagan was at this point in his Presidency. Which is interesting because even though he was responsible for starting us down the path that has led to the huge income gap we have today, the lack of mental health, and the silly knowledge that all government is bad, Ronald Reagan has almost saint like status among Republicans. Even though if he were running today he would be labeled a RINO, traitor, weak, compromising loser by the Tea Party.
