With everything that has been going on, and continues to go on, the indictments, the guilty pleas, the kissing of Putin's ass, how can the orange buffoon have so much as 31% approval?

What this shows is that there is high ignorance in the USA.

He doesn't care that the public doesn't like this, it stops all the court cases against him and his family except for Muellers. That's a personal win for him. Immigration courts are all shut down so no one is getting approved and all are just languishing in jail, he thinks that's a win because brown people are being hurt. He thinks most government workers are Dems and he wants to punish them and us for the blue wave of the mid-terms. Plus PUtin TOLD him to do this and he always follows PUtin's orders. Hell, he's such a slave he's actually trying to remove sanctions on Deripaska at the same time it was proven by Manaforts' lawyers incompetence that this is the same person Manafort provided their campaigns internal polling information. Collusion/conspiracy in plain sight and repugs in Senate bury their heads in the sand for fear of their own traitorousness with Russia becoming known.
