People, Personas, and Politics 1 – Unprecedented Disapproval Scott Douglas Jacobsen & Rick Rosner March 20, 2017 [Beginning of recorded material] Scott Douglas Jacobsen: I wanted to start another one people, personas, and politics. The American big – people, the American small – personas, and American politics – big and small, so we talked – off tape - about the unprecedented disapproval of Trump. Rick Rosner: On day 58 of Trump’s presidency, Gallup takes daily polls. His disapproval reached 58% and his approval dropped to 37%. His all-time highs and lows for those numbers. Gallup has been polling since FDR. So include Trump, that’s 14 presidents. Of those 14, 8 never reached that level of disapproval including Clinton and Obama. And the quickest besides Trump, who took less than 2 months, to reach 58% disapproval was Carter, who took 2.4 years. Truman took 5.5 years. Nixon and George W. Bush took 4.5 years to reach those levels of disapproval. Of people who reached those levels of disapproval, Nixon was gone in 13 months. Carter was out of office in about 19 months and George W. Bush managed to hold on for 3.5 years after reaching that level of disapproval. Most presidents either never hit that disapproval or were gone within 13 months after hitting that level of disapproval. But that, at least partially, depends where in the election cycle presidents hit that cycle. Trump still has 46 months to go in his term, and he could hang on. As George W. Bush did for years, but it is hard to say because, right now, we don’t know if Trump has really done anything impeachable enough for the Republicans to act on it, Bill Clinton got impeached for lying about saying he never had sex when he had a blow job or two. I don’t know how many in the Oval Office. He was not impeached for the blow job, but for lying and saying that he didn’t have sex. He survived the impeachment and went on to have a couple more years as president with high popularity.
