More Americans say Trump has presidential qualities: Gallup

More Americans now say President Trump has the personality and leadership qualities a president should have than they did two years ago, according to a new poll.

Forty percent of Americans surveyed in the Gallup poll released Tuesday said that Trump has presidential qualities. That percentage has risen from 33 percent in 2017.

Despite the increase, a majority of respondents — 58 percent — said that Trump lacks those qualities.

Roughly 6 in 10 respondents thought Trump’s predecessors, George W. Bush and Barack Obama, had presidential characteristics at similar points in their presidencies, Gallup noted.

Neither Obama nor Bush ever had a character rating lower than 49 percent during their times in office.

The new Gallup poll of 1,024 adults was conducted April 17–30. It has a margin of error is 4 percentage points.

The State of Oklahoma is suing Johnson & Johnson over opioids.

They're not alone.

Of course, if by "presidential qualities", they were thinking "acting like an 'El Presidente'", then I can see that, as recently demonstrated:

Nobody ever doubted that Nixon, Harding or Buchanan were president.
We have had the strange zeitgeist that he was not legitimate. Despise him if you must, but he WAS legitimately elected thanks to the constitutional electoral college.
Enough of the rending of garments and burying your loincloth at the city limits.
Go and run a real campaign, instead of an entitled one.

Legitimate campaigns do not rely on Russian assistance and Russian hacking of electoral computers.

Man, you had better adjust the filters on your tinfoil hat.
Not even the demented Maxine or the lovely AOC are claiming the electoral computers were hacked.
And if it did happen, it was while OBAMA was President. He who basically ignored all warnings, except to tell Vlad “Cut that out!”

JJ Parus, you are a fucking idiot. How do you manage to wipe yourself after taking a shit?

JJ Parus, you are a fucking idiot. How do you manage to wipe yourself after taking a shit?

You actually believe that everyone who thinks you’re an idiot is JJ?
I have a hint for you Dude. There are a lot of us, including almost everyone who is embarrassed to occasionally agree with you.

JJ plods along, taking the slings and arrows. Like a tortoise.
Me, I’m a hit and run guy.
