This is why Pelosi wanted to block the SOTU address. Trump approval jumps to 52%.

Expect the Dems to be a bit more giving in negotiations now. This is the absolute green light for a partial shutdown, state of emergency, or yes, even another shut down - polls suggest the worm has turned on who the public now blames. These polls were done in the 3 days after the SOTU speech.

Dems spent the speech looking angry, petulant, unhappy with good news that all Americans should have been heartened by, and uncooperative and mocking (Pelosi’s mock clap for instance). Public noticed Trump had offered compromise. Pelosi is easy to dislike as well. Dem women in KKK white would not clap for American citizen gains, but couldn’t resist clapping for themselves.

Time to play hardball as Dems backpedal.

That's a lot of wishful thinking heaped onto one outlier poll.

His average approval rating is still 40%.

Rasmussen is not an outlier poll,but you make a good point that there are polls to tell one whatever

one wants to hear. So, I guess the real question is whether the parties involved believe it. I know Trump does, and I guess we will see by the Dems move to compromise or not whether they believe it as well.

It really is an outlier.

But in another poll on Monday, Rasmussen Reports, which is consistently a conservative-leaning outlier among polling outfits, found that 46 percent of respondents said they would vote for the Republican congressional candidate if the election were held today, while 45 percent said they would go with the Democrat. Rasmussen put Trump's approval rating at 50 percent and his disapproval at 49 percent.

This is was the Monday before the 2018 midterms. The midterms turned out a bit differently - 51.7M Dem. votes to 47.4M Rep. votes.

Based on what we have seen so far. Biden is likely your best bet or maybe the Starbucks guy.

There is definitely a battle brewing between the moderates and far left wings.

I don't want to be far left, and America doesn't want to be far left. Shoot, many commentators of the "liberal media" are warning against the party alienating its centrist wing. But that wing is energetic and might prevail.

I want nothing to do with it.

If it's the only choice I have other than Donald Trump, then maybe I will hold my nose and vote for whomever.

Interesting, though they were also the closest actual poll wrt 2016 (LATimes wasn’t a true poll) but

I admit mine is only an opinion- you have presented more evidence than I, so I will have to concede. But I’m still watching and hoping.

The difference, if I recall, is that Rasmussen in 2016 was right there with the consensus (regarding vote totals - modest edge to HRC). I don't know what they are outliers most of the time, or what would make them closer to the consensus other times.

This particular one seems out there. That said, Trump clearly recovered a bit from the end of the shutdown and the SOTU. He is a persuasive orator for many, and that kind of venue would admittedly be good for him.
