You must be talking about the 62 million that voted for him because as one of the 65 million, I expected doom and gloom, and he has not disappointed. Smh.

interpretingall That's funny. He's every bit as incompetent and corrupt as I thought he'd be.

Failing. realDonaldTrump potus FLOTUS WhiteHouse DonaldJTrumpJr IvankaTrump EricTrump PressSec StephGrisham45 GOPLeader senatemajldr DonTheCon TrumpCrimeFamily

he is overachieving for those who pay him the 1% BlackRock & Co global organized crime mafia

sherrilee7 No not at all. I fully expected him to suck as president.

Gee no kidding

Melania says the same thing.

Hey all you just tweetin to the choir. it is the base, not his rabid trailer parkers. Forget those, you have to be sane & nice to reach the others still stuck on ‘well at least he’s not Hillary’ we have to give irrefutable FACTS, Meuller better have it right!

Who exactly had any expectations?

He's everything I expected and less. TrumpIsAMoron TrumpIsADisgrace

Failing to meet expectations? He’s been a complete train wreck by any objective measure! Stop trying to normalize this administration!

The only reason he is still here is the fall of the GOP. They are raking in millions from Russia.

I thought the repubs would put a check on him... Wrong!

We actually didn't have any expectations that he would do the job. The surprise is how colossally bad he is, a macaw with a modicum of understanding would do a better job.

The Trump Administration = The Bre-X of USA Politics. CONmanderInChief

what has he failed to deliver apart from the wall of which he will. The guy has brought back jobs that Obama said would need the second coming of Jesus Christ. The economy is booming what else?

Oh no not an ABC poll, we're all doomed....lmfao

Republicans acquiesced to the ruinous shutdown. If there was congressional dismay at the outcome it's because they've accepted the Trump myth as fact. Western banks won't do business with Trump. What's so hard to figure out? We've elected a dim Russian as president.

The Trump train!!!!!!!

Exhausted he’s and incompetent fraud.

Duh!

He watches tv while America implodes

Trump is a failure period. Everything he touches fails

Only his base can be underwhelmed by his performance. The rest of us were right on the money believing he’s a morally bankrupt idiotic criminal.

Ya think?

I expected this⬇️ So...😒

If Trump's ratings are declining al the time they must be below Zero by now?

Village Idiot. Zero Expectation.

I’m tired of all the winning.

Paula_Dockery Understatement.

MORE FAKE NEWS! WE SEE TRUMPS LUV FOR OUR COUNTRY NO MATTER HOW U HATERS TRY AND SPIN IT! FAKE HATIN' NEWS! GTH....

Not fake news!

Funny, this is exactly what I expected from him.

Can’t believe your polls. Thank you and good by.

He's behaving exactly as I expected: cheap melodrama, self-adulation, scandals, grifting, disassociation from reality, temper tantrums, incoherence, belligerence, and lies. Okay, I honestly didn't expect quite so much golfing; I mean how interesting can it be without windmills?

He done great even after the democrats had fought him tooth and nail just what they wanted to do

This man bankrupted his own casino where the House always wins. And the Republican Party left him in charge of America’s finances. Tried to tell ya, folks. Sad.

This is news? You mean to tell me that Donald lied, he's not the greatest president ever. Oh, the shock and dismay of it all!

Yeah he doesn’t even work. Enough of us see his schedule and he just watches tv most of the damn day.

😂😂😂understatement😂😂😂😂😡

Yah think?

Still at least he can claim he's built the deficit. 17% increase. It's bigger it must be better.

Because mommy and daddy and here to help the Juggernaut anymore hes humiliating the public and the US for everything that it stands for he is changing everything to make this country fall nobody sees what Hitler is doing

Fahrenthold Doing a good job at failing.

Polling the staff doesn't make an accurate poll.

More Fake News ! I have a novel idea 4 all Fake News outlets . How about if u report on all of the good things that President Trump has accomplished in his first 2 yrs. n compare them 2 the last 3 presidents n u will find that Trump has done more good then all of them combined.

Point spread between the ABC Poll and Electoral College Victory in 2016? 306-232. 57%/43%. Poll was off by over 20+%. Polls don't work. 'Journalists' are getting fired - why? It sure seems like people forgot how to think.

Fahrenthold

Pres. Trump has accomplished more in 2 years than many recent presidents in their full term. Building the wall still needs to be accomplished. No border, no country. Walls have proven themselves around the world.

Not mine. I knew he would do a terrible job. His entire platform was to undo everything President Obama did. Beyond that he is lost. Plus he’s a liar and a crook. To expect anything other than what he has delivered is unfounded.

Fahrenthold Well trump has met my expectations

Fahrenthold But not of those who elected him! Doing even better than we expected!

He can turn it around quickly... by resigning.

Fahrenthold You mean from Day 1......

Fahrenthold Here's when it happens: Trump is no longer a thieving oligarch, dangerously undermining the Constitution and betraying America; He's an exhausted, disillusioned old man, who bit off more than he could chew, was manipulated by extremists, and deserves our pity.

Fahrenthold ...the public’s [most basic] expectations...

Fahrenthold Certainly not my case. I was expecting the worst.

Fahrenthold Shocked. SHOCKED.

Fahrenthold The public loves the results. That’s what’s important

Fahrenthold Oh, Trump's pretty much met MY expectations. That's the problem.

In other 'water is wet' news...

Fahrenthold Gimme a break. Who expected anything from this douchenozzle?

PRESIDENT TRUMP is doing a great job, he has a plan and pissloce and none chuck are going to be lying again

Can we all agree not to call this Trump’s ‘first term’? Doesn’t that imply there will be a second? I’m looking at you, WaPo.

The House moves to block President Trump from pulling out of NATO; WHY? Trump is committed to NATO and after last year's summit the others in the Alliance will be sharing the burden by an additional contribution of $100BILLION !!!!!!!!!!

Midway? Try from the beginning.

WP such bias barely hidden under written words.

If you apply for employment at Wal-Mart or Dollar Saver they train you for the position they hire you for. Apparently that doesn't apply to the most powerful position in the land

Where in hells name do u get these polls, the country has never been better than it now, never been so good in decades. Never had so many jobs, fights drugs, border security, child trafficking . What did the Dems do exactly ?

So says a NEWS organization that writes multiple hit pieces a day, every day, against 45 while ignoring any and everything positive accomplished. Along w/all FakeNews, then queries the readers to see if their propaganda is successful. WaPo you’re next to start firing people.

SURPRISE!!!!!

And when it’s official that the country hit 3.5% GDP average for a year, A NUMBER YOU IDIOTS SAID WOULDNT HAPPEN, that’s failing the people? And all of the MANUFACTURING JOBS that Obama said are gone forever and are not coming back. Trumps magic wand says people ARE WINNING.

Yeah the polls that say the country is going in the right direction which is a 50 point swing from Obama says Trump is “failing”. COMSUMER CONFIDENCE means Trump is “failing”. What imbeciles believe this crap? FROM CONSUMER/BUSINESS CONFIDENCE TO WAGE INCREASES. U convinced us.

Go ahead and put a side by side comparison between Trump and Obama and you can name the accomplishments for every two years of Obama and compare it to every 6 months of Trump. But you won’t because you’ll have to use facts and write Trumps accomplishments. Enough said.

Half way through Trumps 1st term, he’s done more than Obama did in his ENTIRE 8 YEARS. probably double. You actually want people to believe Trump hasn’t DONE WHAT HE SAID HE WOULD DO IN ONLY 2 YEARS? The guy is amazing, turned the country around but he’s not JESUS.

Who do they poll? The morning coffee crew? 🤷🏽‍♂️ I’ve never met a person who has been polled about realDonaldTrump. You waste your time with this....everyone knows FakePolls are your thing but doesn’t change a thing for us proud deplorables 🇺🇸

This is what we anticipated, a divisive hate filled failure. His racist perspective (We must stop the immigration of the brown people here) has elevated his desire for an ineffective wall, into an emergency status! They’re playing into this fish heads plans.

ImpeachTheMF failure!

He’s definitely meeting, and possibly exceeding, mine.

Kampala Harris so eloquently stated the importance including the required Governmental directions that this Country is in dire need of. All of America must wake up and understand, Putin is directing our current State of Affairs.

The public? Say his base

I don't know. He's living up to what I expected of him EXACTLY on target. Garbage in, garbage out.

I don’t know who or how you conduct your polls, but actual Americans love our President and the work he does for us. MAGA

Having expectations was the first problem.

If this man shuts our Government down again all of America must rise out of bed and move Trump out of office! The United States must continue business or Putin will make a larger move towards the dismantling of American beliefs and Governmental controls within it's shell!

Unfortunately, 4 many of us trump IS living up 2 expectations 4 his job performance. There r those of us, generally not the news media, who knew exactly what 2 expect We weren't going4ratings or click bait; we were worrying about fascism & criminality & bankrupting the country.

Then the public is dumb. He’s actually (slightly) exceeded my expectations.

He is failerman.

You don’t say.

What’s astounding is that 37% of Americans still support him at the very time he was holding the country hostage to fulfill a lie made during the campaign and expressed zero sympathy & compassion for federal workers. TrumpShutdown

The Public receives over 90% negative info from the FakeNewsMedia. FNM purposely does NOT inform the Public of Prestrump's amazing first 2 year accomplishments.

NEWSFLASH: We don't believe you, EVER.

Another WAPO BS article.

Nope. He’s everything I expected.

No shit

and I had pretty low expectation...

file that under: Duhhhh

A poll from the washed up post ? Useless as Casey Anthony day care center.

Trust the polls.

Most important words, midway through his first term Trump is failing!!

Never in the history of the US has so much information been publicly available on how a president failed. History class won't be able to teach it all, it is going to have to be its own subject.
