Trump Sets Record: Fastest President To 36% Job Approval
11:30am
Trump has at least set one record, but it's not the record you want to set. He is the fastest president in history to a 36% job approval rating, it only took him 66 days to get there.
In the new Gallup poll Trump has dropped to 36% approval. President Donald Trump's job approval rating fell to 36% for the three-day period of March 24-26, following Republican House leaders failed effort to pass a new healthcare bill that would have replaced the Affordable Care Act.
And O'Reilly is still defending everything Trump says and does. But when Obama even dropped to 49% approval O'Reilly called him a disaster and a failed president. When Trump drops to 36% approval, O'Reilly does not even report it. Every day Obama was under 50% O'Reilly used to report it every night on his show, now he never even mentions it for Trump.

Senate Intelligence Committee Member Suggests FBI Is Sitting on Information on Trump-Russia Ties
It was only a couple of questions in the middle of a hearing, but the queries posed to FBI Director James Comey by Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) during a Senate intelligence committee gathering on Tuesday afternoon had potentially explosive implications, for they suggested that Wyden believes the FBI has been sitting on information regarding ties between Donald Trump's inner circle and Russia.
The hearing was focused on the intelligence community's recently released report concluding that Vladimir Putin's regime had mounted an extensive secret operation to influence the US election in order to help Trump. At the start of the hearing, outgoing Director of National Intelligence James Clapper emphasized that the report did not assess whether the Russian meddling had affected the outcome of the election. This was an indirect rebuke to Trump and his partisans, who have repeatedly said the report concluded the Russian intervention did not affect the results. Comey also noted that Russian hackers had targeted Republican targets but that the FBI had no found evidence that Moscow had penetrated the Trump campaign or current accounts of the Republican National Committee.
The most dramatic exchange came with Wyden's questions. He noted that several media outlets have reported that Trump campaign associates, including Paul Manafort, Trump's former campaign chairman, had maintained connections with Russians tied to Putin. He asked Comey, "Has the FBI investigated these reported relationships?" Comey answered, "I would never comment on investigations...in an open forum."
Wyden pushed Comey further. He asked if the FBI chief would declassify information related to this matter and "release it to the American people" by January 20. No, Comey said, adding, "I can't talk about it."
Wyden then declared, "The American people have a right to know this." He continued: "If it doesn't happen by January 20, I'm not sure it's going to happen."
Wyden's line of questioning indicated that he believes (or knows) the FBI has collected information on Trump ties to Moscow. And Wyden is in a position to know. As a member of the committee, he can see classified material gathered by the FBI and other national security agencies. With these questions to Comey, Wyden was seemingly referring to specific information. In fact, on November 30, he led all the Democratic members in sending a short letter to President Barack Obama that stated, "We believe there is additional information concerning the Russian Government and the U.S. election that should be declassified and released to the public. We are conveying specifics through classified channels." The letter gave no hint of the nature of this information.
But it is not hard to read between the lines: Intelligence committee members have received classified briefings that included information regarding contacts between the Trump camp and Russians.
.@realDonaldTrump @GOP @Mike_Pence @marcorubio @SpeakerRyan @SenateMjrLdr You all must be so proud to have the support of The Daily Stormer. Anything for a vote. http://www.dailystormer.com/im-so-scared/
They are trolling Hillary supporters to get them to commit suicide.
From the Trump supporting Daily Stormer
You can troll these people and definitely get some of them to kill themselves.
Just be like “it’s the only way you can prove to the racists that Hillary was right all along.”
"Mass Suicides After Trump Victory” would be a headline the media would play up, but all it would do would demoralize the left even further."

The Sun Sentinel Editorial Board endorses Murphy because we mostly approve of the policy positions espoused by him and other moderate Democrats. Those include a commitment to repair, rather than kill, Obamacare; respect for the hard-won rights of women, the LGBT community and minorities; a higher minimum wage; tax policies that benefit the middle class, rather than the rich; a pragmatic approach to relations with Cuba; deep concern about climate change; protecting Medicare and Social Security from privatization; and ensuring that the Second Amendment is not corrupted into a right for terrorists to buy assault weapons.
If Clinton is elected and the GOP still runs the Senate, the country will have to endure a repeat of the obstructionism typified by the Senate's refusal to let President Barack Obama replace the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. If Trump is elected and the GOP still runs the Senate, things could be even worse if Trump is allowed to pick justices who either are unqualified or intent on curtailing women's rights, minority voting rights and discrimination against LGBT people.
