Warming up: 51% of voters now view Donald Trump favorably, Rasmussen poll says

Multiple national polls revealed this week that American optimism and good feeling is on a marked upswing as the nation heads for 2017. Now voters appear to be warming to President-elect Donald Trump as well.

A new Rasmussen Reports survey released Tuesday finds that 51 percent of likely U.S. voters have a favorable opinion of Mr. Trump — a number which includes 29 percent who view him “very” favorably. The landmark finding follows weeks of rising poll numbers for the incoming president. His favorability numbers among all voters have increased on average from the low-30 percentage point range to the mid-40s. None have gone over 50 percent in recent days.

There are still hold-outs. The poll also found that 47 percent of voters view him unfavorably.

And if we go by the margin of error in the past election, its more like a 75% favorable rating.

Does that mean that the other 49% do not view him favorably? Nothing to brag about! Not very popular!

There will always be those that won't like Trump, because they don't want to be responsible in life.
