35% say U.S. is Heading in the Right Direction
2021-02-02
[Rasmussen Reports] Thirty-five percent (35%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey for the week ending January 28, 2021.
35% in the right direction suggests...well, you do the math!
Rasmussen was the only public polling company to call the 2016 election correctly, as I recall — although one can assume that the Trump campaign’s private pollsters got it right, too. He called 2020 for Donald Trump and the Republicans, too — an interesting datum.
This week’s finding jumped up eleven points points from a week ago. This is the highest percentage since November 2020.
A week ago, some respondents were probably looking back. The 35% figure is after the inauguration and correlates closely with the four-year average of those who strongly disapproved of (hated) Trump.

#10  Any correlation between that 35% population slice and the grouping of all rent-seekers? Also service workers, government workers, academics, newsies and all other people that don't feel that their paycheck is based on producing a physical product somebody wants to buy?

#7  35% = "near plurality" to the lamestream press, I'm sure...

#6  The Dims are censoring our military. At first with the FBI. Now Dim officials are investigating their social media accounts.

This is the restructuring of our military into their own massive Red Army.

#5  And Harris' approval was dismal...why she left the Dem primary race rather early. But, in a few months....

#4  Rasmussen asks the same question every day: do you strongly approve, approve, disapprove, or strongly disapprove? No room for spin.

Over four years, both Trump approval trends were slightly upwards. The "disapprove" trended down. Only the "strongly disapprove" was dead flat, at about 35%. I call that "hard core".
