Rasmussen Pollster Says Modern Polling Is BROKEN, They’ve Become WEAPONIZED

Polling has been broken for FOREVER. I remember in the early 2000s Penn & Teller did a whole show about it in their Bull Shit series. They interviewed Frank Luntz who openly admitted they manipulate the questions to get the answers they want…
I love when things are brought up as if it’s a new discovery… polling is weaponized?! I’ve never been polled & I actively tried to search it out before lol
All the polls and real news says Harris is winning. It’s over for Trump”
The good news is that, with how terrible most modern polls are, I’ve gotten better. In 2024, I was able to call the EC exactly, the popular vote within 1%….and as a bonus, I called how wrong some of the big polling agencies would be by withing 3 points.
Funny when they show the “margin of error” the poll is almost exactly that far off. Its not a margin of error, its how much theyve messed with the numbers to fit what theyre pushing
I could have sworn that this guy said that only polling taking place is from people who respond to spam, then said we should pay attention to it because it represents america??
Push pulls,pull polls. Framing, leading, selective answers , vagueness, time of day, location, oversampling under sampling even before woke
I’m 68 only use cell phone registered voter never been poled so who are they talking to or communicating with

A major Democrat talking point is to say that they are talking to tons of Republicans that are souring on Trump. “This is not what I voted for.” A new poll released today show his approval numbers RISING.

BREAKING NEWS: TRUMP’S APPROVAL HITS 53% AMID TARIFF PUSH “America First is wildly popular,” said JIM HᴏFT. On April 7, 2025, JIM HᴏFT reported that DONALD TRUMP’s approval rating surged to 53%, up 4 points, per a Daily Mail/J.L. Partners poll of 1,000 voters from March 31 to April 3. Support grew across demographics: a 13-point rise among 18-29-year-olds, 6 points from Democrats and independents, and 17 points among Black voters. Despite media criticism, 36% back Trump’s 10% universal tariff, with 39% supporting broader tariffs on foreign goods. Trump called the tariffs a “Declaration of Economic Independence,” claiming they’ve already spurred over $5 trillion in investments, aiming to revive U.S. manufacturing and reduce trade deficits.
JUST IN: Despite the tariff controversy, President Donald Trump‘s approval rating is SURGING. According to a new DailyMail/JL Partners poll of over 1,000 RVs conducted March 31–April 3, Trump‘s approval has climbed to 53%. That’s a 4-point improvement from the previous week. – Kyle Becker
President Trump is thriving! His polls numbers have gone up since the Tariffs This is what MAGA wanted and voted for. AS ALWAYS, Trump will be vindicated in the end! MAGA being rallied, along with this success, will ensure a MASSIVE RED WAVE in the midterms. BANK ON IT. – Steven

As of today, April 7, 2025, here’s a rundown of some recent polling data for Donald Trump’s approval ratings this month, based on available information up to this point. Since it’s early in April, the data primarily reflects polls conducted in late March and the first few days of April, which I’ll summarize for you.

Reuters/Ipsos Poll (March 31 – April 2, 2025): This poll showed Trump’s approval rating at 43%, with 54% disapproving, giving him a net approval of -11%. This was a drop from 45% approval in a similar poll earlier in March, marking his lowest point since returning to office. The sample size was 1,486 U.S. adults, with a margin of error of about ±3%.
YouGov/Economist Poll (March 30 – April 1, 2025): Trump’s approval was at 43% among all adults, with 47% disapproving, resulting in a net of -4%. Among Republicans, it was 93%, while among independents, it dropped to 33% (57% disapproved). Among Democrats, approval rose slightly to 9%. This poll surveyed 1,626 adults, with a typical margin of error around ±3%.
Rasmussen Reports (April 4, 2025): According to their daily tracker, Trump’s approval was at 49%, with 50% disapproving, a net of -1%. This was notable as it was the first time in his second term that Rasmussen, often seen as Republican-leaning, showed a net negative. This is a rolling survey, typically with a sample of about 1,500 likely voters and a margin of error of ±3%.
Newsweek Average (as of April 5, 2025): Aggregating the 10 most recent polls, Newsweek reported Trump’s approval at 47%, with 49% disapproving, a net of -2%. This was down from early March, when he was at 49% approval and 47% disapproval, indicating a slight downward trend.
Posts on X (April 6-7, 2025): Some users on X cited higher numbers, like a 53% approval rating with a 4-point gain, but these claims lack specific sourcing or methodology details as of now, so they should be treated as anecdotal until verified by a formal poll.

Overall, as of early April 2025, Trump’s approval rating appears to hover between 43% and 49%, with disapproval slightly higher, ranging from 47% to 54%, based on these polls. The average across these sources suggests about 45-47% approval and 49-51% disapproval, showing a net negative trend emerging this month. Keep in mind that polling can vary due to sample size, methodology, and timing—especially with only a week into April so far.
