And yet Trump's approval rating is still hovering in the low 40s. You may think Trump's giving it back in a bigger portion is a positive, but it doesn't seem to be working for him. 40 House seats lost, most by Republicans since 1974. 7 governorships lost. Several state legislatures lost with many others turning purple. I said it quite a while ago -- Trump's character/personality are costing him as many votes as his policies. But we all know he won't change. Originally Posted by SpeedRacerXXXand yet Trump's approval ratings are higher than Obama's at the same point. how many seats nationwide did Obama cost the Democrats?

meanwhile the press were fawning over the "Golden Child" Obama. he even won a Nobel for simply being the first half-black man to be elected President.
