That is true, but I don't think it's in the same numbers, not even close. Do you remember large scale protests and riots on college campuses over Obama? Do you recall people taking off work to watch congressional hearings? Do you recall theatrical productions depicting the killing of the current POTUS before?

Who cued the shooter in Alexandria today? Right on time.

I'm not going to quantify/qualify which party is worse.

You have to remember that I'm surrounded by hard core liberals so my view is somewhat tainted.

"This could be the first political rhetorical terrorist attack and that has to stop," Rep. Rodney Davis told CNN's Brianna Keilar...

"Republicans and Democrats need to use this day today to stand together and say stop," he said. "Let's work together and get things done. We can have our differences, but let's not let it lead to such hate."

I don't think we've ever had this bad a choice for President before. And I'm not kidding when I say that. The nation electing somebody like Donald Trump for President is really, really bad.

Gallup didn't provide it, unfortunately. Just noted approval of Independents. Their crosstabs are behind a paywall. I'd post disapproval if I had it.

We're polarized as hell. But, saying either side is more polarized than the other is bullshit.

And, posting the historic numbers wasn't so much to compare R to D presidents - but, more to document Trump's historic tanking in the polls. Unprecedented.

Well then it will be important to drag out the Russia probe as long as possible.... until at least Nov 2018

They certainly have precedent on their side. I'm expecting top level entertainment for some time to come. I'm

Skelly has him at over 60% disapproval, so at least we know 110% of the US population feels one way or the other about him.

I saw something that said one of these polls had a +12 Democrats in it's sample. Don't know if it is true or not and I don't care enough to go through them and try to find out.

Trump is rolling back the Obama easing of relations with Cuba. I see no benefit to it. Frankly I think it's a stupid move by Trump.

They're still mistreating our people in Havana

Some really fvcked up stuff - think things that cause chronic health problems

I've got a buddy who came back from there with some serious issues

Fvck Cuba - I am ok with normalizing relations because it can heat things up for the regime from their own people- but if we break it off in their ass I wouldn't lose any sleep, either

They're as bad as the Russians if not worse... they just don't have nukes

The Russians are gangsters - they always have been. They are OG

But our interests as nations dovetail in many areas - and they ARE natural allies. You don't have to like your allies.

Describe how the Russians "ARE natural allies." I don't buy it for a second. Ever since Stalin hosed FDR at Yalta, the Russians have been ruthless adversaries. Gorbachev notwithstanding. Common interests, maybe.
