Donald Trump is less popular than when he was elected. Everywhere.
According to surveys conducted by Morning Consult, in every US state, Donald Trump’s net approval rating in May 2018—the share of people who approve of the job he is doing minus those that disapprove—was down from when he entered office. Even in the states where Trump remains quite popular, his net approval has fallen.
State
January 2017
May 2018
Change in popularity
Alabama 36 30 -6
Louisiana 31 25 -6
Maryland -13 -20 -7
South Dakota 21 14 -7
West Virginia 37 27 -10
Georgia 18 7 -11
Mississippi 34 23 -11
South Carolina 25 14 -11
Nevada 10 -2 -12
Wyoming 40 28 -12
Trump’s fall in popularity is not unusual. Political analysts at FiveThirtyEight point out that in the first year of his presidency, Barack Obama’s popularity also fell in every state. Presidents typically start out popular, and get less so over their tenure.
Still, it is interesting to note the patterns where the US president is holding ground. Trump seems to be retaining approval in the states where he was most popular initially. In four of the five states where Trump’s popularity fell least, his net approval was greater than 20 points when he entered office. Maryland is the exception. Trump was so unpopular from the beginning, with a 13 point net disapproval, he didn’t have far to fall.

Leftist media pushing fake news harder than ever, leftist quasi-news programs like Chris Matthews, Rachael Maddow, along with numerous misleading, leftist, anti-Trump comedy shows like Samantha Bee, Bill Maher, Jimmy Kimmel and Connan O'Brien, and thousands of radical whacko liberals posting outright lies on all forms of social media, ... and the subject of their silly lies is still climbing in popularity. In addition, public opinion is that the USA is headed in the right direction is at 38%, the highest since September 2005. Trump is still kicking the left's ass, and they know it, regardless of the silly crap they keep posting.

You notice Rumitoid never mentions which poll or which source. Just "polls show."

That's about all he got from the silly leftist sources he blindly follows.
Would that be one of those polls like the Clinton would crush Trump polls? Basically polls are for losers!

I Figured He Was Too Busy Reading Pending Legislation
To Notice Meaningless Polls
Because He Usually Can't Stay Up On Mostly Common National News

Well he is right about the right finally waking up. We are fed up and we all know the left can't tell the truth or be honest about anything. What the left really wants is for the right to go back to sleep

She beat him by over three million votes, the electoral college anointed him not the voters, they soundly rejected him.

I believe that I already explained that the Electoral College has been used to choose the president and vice-president since 1804. There is a process for doing it some other way, it's called a Constitutional Amendment. You will just have to put on your big boy pants and deal with it.

Did you forget that the votes of which you speak were from misinformed liberals? The kind that are driving California into bankruptcy? It's a blessing that they didn't prevail in 2016. Go Trump.
