I'm not going to argue this you don't understand it and never will at this point in your life.

You're getting a bit frisky, snowflake...

Maybe you missed the memo -- Trump barely managed his way into the White House with a very narrow win in which he got 46 percent of the vote, winning the states he needed by less than a point, and lost the popular vote by 3 million votes. On top of that, only 1/2 of the electorate turned out. So he actually won with less than 25 percent of the country. Hardly a mandate, mon ami.

Where have you been lately? Not a whisper from you the whole time the inmates were out of the asylum here. Now that they are back in lockdown you come to visit? Strange how things work out isn't it?

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- President Donald Trump is the first elected president in Gallup's polling history to receive an initial job approval rating below the majority level. He starts his term in office with 45% of Americans approving of the way he is handling his new job, 45% disapproving and 10% yet to form an opinion.

Trump now holds the record for the lowest initial job approval rating as well as the highest initial disapproval rating in Gallup surveys dating back to Dwight D. Eisenhower.
