If you scrolled down, you would see this
(But since you can't read, or spell, I will post this for the others with a brain):

From Rasmussen's Site:

Some readers wonder how we come up with our job approval ratings for the president since they often don’t show as dramatic a change as some other pollsters do. It depends on how you ask the question and whom you ask.

To get a sense of longer-term job approval trends for the president, Rasmussen Reports compiles our tracking data on a full month-by-month basis.

Rasmussen Reports has been a pioneer in the use of automated telephone polling techniques, but many other firms still utilize their own operator-assisted technology (see methodology).

Daily tracking results are collected via telephone surveys of 500 likely voters per night and reported on a three-day rolling average basis. To reach those who have abandoned traditional landline telephones, Rasmussen Reports uses an online survey tool to interview randomly selected participants from a demographically diverse panel. The margin of sampling error for the full sample of 1,500 Likely Voters is +/- 2.5 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Results are also compiled on a full-week basis and crosstabs for full-week results are available for Platinum Members.

good post. an honest attempt to debate!! kudos!! but let me put in a caveat when you use a poll known to skew towards the republican and towards republican policies way more than any consensus- you are trying to verify a sketchy polling site by POSTING WHAT THEY SAY!! it would be weird if they did admit they screwed the pooch so often due to their failed methodology.

wrong. clinton got 4% more of the popular vote than trump.

In the final count, Hillary Clinton's lead in the popular vote of the 2016 presidential election was nearly three million votes. According to the independent, non-partisan Cook Political Report, Clinton's final tally came in at 65,844,610, compared to Donald Trump's 62,979,636, with a difference of 2,864,974.Dec 20, 2016
Hillary Clinton's Final Popular Vote Lead Is 2.8 Million | Time

time.com/4608555/hillary-clinton-popular-vote-final/


now, using math, which i know confuses most right wingers- if you take hillary's popular vote total and trump's you see that hillary's is 4% higher. (actually, a little more than 4%, but who's counting?)

*The accuracy measures for the Gravis Marketing poll (sample size of 16,639), the USA Today/Suffolk poll (sample size of 1,000), the Saint Leo University poll (sample size of 1,050), the NBC/SurveyMonkey poll (sample size of 70,194), the CNBC/Hart/Public Opinion Strategies poll (sample size of 804), and the LA Times/USC poll (sample size of 2,972) fall outside the 95% confidence intervals.

The accuracy measures for the other 19 polls fall within the 95% confidence intervals.

The average absolute accuracy for all polls in 2016 is 0.070. The median absolute accuracy for all polls in 2016 is 0.049. The average absolute accuracy for the 19 polls in 2016 where the accuracy measures fall within the respective 95% confidence intervals is 0.045.

The average absolute accuracy for all polls in the 2012 presidential election was 0.055. Three polls in 2012 had accuracy measures fall outside the 95% confidence intervals (YouGov, Rasmussen, and Gallup).

The average absolute accuracy for all polls in the 2008 presidential election was 0.037. None of the polls in 2008 had accuracy measures outiside of the 95% confidence intervals.
 
So I get it right, today POLLS ARE GOOD, and when Trumps numbers fall below 40% they will be wrong - correct - Just trying to keep up with the flip flop - right or wrong scorecard !

and I say even using your data it shows rassmussen was the worst in 2012, when they picked romney. they are still the worst, if you assume the average of many polls has to be more accurate than any certain one of 10 or so. when you count votes for hillary versus votes for trump, which is really what the 2016 election was all about- rassmussen was the least accurate. LIKE I SHOWED EARLIER- CLINTON BEAT TRUMP BY 4% IN THE POPULAR ELECTION RESULTS, RASSMUSSEN ADMITS THEY HAD HER WINNING BY ONLY 2%....ALMOST ALL OTHERS, IF NOT ALL OTHERS, HAD HER WINNING BY MORE THAN 2% AND WERE CLOSER.
 
what difference does it make

she lost and is not the President
i guess the difference it makes only applies to those of us who care about the truth, not right wing robots and stooges who avoid the truth like they avoid bath water.

Second most accurate in 2016.

The second most accurate poll according to the report was the national Rasmussen poll of likely voters. Although the end result showed that Clinton would win the race, the overall numbers are very close to the results, as long as you just count the popular vote. Clinton led Trump by 2 percentage points in the poll, nearly the same number as she led Trump in the overall popular vote.
 
Trump gets no bump in his approval rating
following the Mueller report "totally exonerating him??

LOL
It hasn't been out a full week yet. Once people see the charade that the leftist media pulled on them they will have more faith in their president. There was never any collusion. They was never any obstruction. Trump is EXONERATED, totally and fully. No more indictments. So when this information propagates throughout the entire electorate, people will start tuning out the lamestream media and Trump will see a 2 - 5% ratings bump. This is science, people.
