Highest number of independents to date approve of Trump: Poll

President Trump is maintaining elevated approval ratings following his impeachment acquittal in the Senate.

A Gallup poll released Thursday shows Trump with a 49% approval rating from voters, with 43% approval from political independents. The poll reveals deep polarization between views of Trump, with 93% Republican approval and just 6% Democratic approval, but Trump's support from independents is larger than at any other point in his presidency.

The results show that the president's approval has only climbed since his impeachment trial, jumping approximately 5 points.

"Trump's approval rating may be higher because of the Senate's acquitting him in the impeachment trial. Bill Clinton's job approval ratings also were higher spanning the time between his impeachment in late 1998 and his acquittal in early 1999," the survey noted.

With the Dam party becoming totally irrelevant this election cycle, it's time for an elevation of the Green and Independent parties. Careful, though, we cannot afford a Trump defeat, but welcome other sane parties who do not support Communism. The Dems are done for 30 years.

We can only hope 11:43 PM. Frankly, I believe the likes of Pelosi, Schiff, Nadler, Waters, and the Squad have denigrated the brand and the likes of Comey, McCabe, Klapper, and Brennan have done irreparable harm to esteemed law and intelligence organizations. All because of TDS; Hillary sitting on the side lines cheering them on is doing no favor to the DNC.
