More Leftist Meltdown Incoming: New Poll Numbers for Trump

We've seen some interesting polling numbers over the past week.

First, there was the congressional Democrats polling at their lowest number ever in a Quinnipiac poll, at 18 percent approval. As a CNN data nerd termed it, that's "lower than the Dead Sea." Then they made things worse by deciding to scuttle the DNC autopsy report they had been working on as to why they lost in 2024, making it clear they wanted to keep their heads in the sand.

Now, the approval numbers have jumped up again for President Donald Trump, according to a new InsiderAdvantage poll.

The poll of likely voters shows 50 percent approve of the job Trump is doing, while 41 percent disapprove, with the remaining 9 percent undecided. That jumped back up from 44 percent approval in November.

This came, not coincidentally, after Trump's speech to the nation on Dec. 17, about some of the administration's achievements, including many of the positive things that they were doing for the economy. This was also after the most recent CPI inflation report, according to InsiderAdvantage pollster Matt Towery. The inflation numbers were good.

The improvement came from numerous demographics — including and most importantly independent voters. His support among younger voters rose, as did his support among female voters,” Towery went on. [....]
The InsiderAdvantage poll surveyed 800 likely voters by a combination of cellphone calls and text messages Dec. 19-20, with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.

That's good to hear, especially in those demographics.

InsiderAdvantage was among the most accurate pollsters in the 2024 election, especially in measuring Trump’s support — making it more reliable than liberal media polls that routinely had him stuck in the 40s. The Real Clear Politics polling average has him at 44 percent approval, with wide swings among the polls. Even the Morning Consult poll, which is generally one of the worst ones for Republicans, has him at 45 percent approval. Not to mention, Trump's numbers are far higher than the congressional Dems' 18 percent.

But I think there are a few things you can glean from that. It's important to highlight the achievements, particularly when it comes to the economy, which is always going to be the number one issue. We're starting to see the positive effects. The border is secure. Inflation is coming down. Gas prices have dropped to a national average of $2.79 as we go into Christmas, and their lowest numbers in years.

What the Republicans in Congress need to do is to take action to get more results. That's going to tell the tale ultimately in 2026. The midterms are going to be a challenge, and Republicans need to be taking advantage of the power they have now to get things done.
