Summary
Trump's Approval Breaks ALL TIME High, Record High African American Support As Well. The latest poll from Zogby shows Donald Trump's approval rating is at a record high of 51% with record high support from the African American community at 28%
With an amazing economy, though not without hiccups, record low unemployment, and and increasing base Trump seems on track for a 2020 Landslide. Meanwhile 2020 Democrats seem to be floundering so much so that even Bill Maher says they are crazier than Trump and is calling for a recession to get Trump out. Maher knows the Democrats only hope is a recession which some predict may be coming.
But so far Republicans are more than doubling fundraising relative to the Democrats. If Trump, the RNC, and Republicans in general are sitting on cash with no debt then they are very much favored to win come 2020.
At the same time as all of this, however, a Fox News poll shows Trump near record high disapproval and losing to the Democrats in match up polls. The thumbnail and title were on purpose, to highlight the partisan view of news and politics. Though it was just one poll showing this all time high the important point is why I feel it is more likely to be correct compared to negative polls
So then how could Trump simultaneously be at record high approval but near record high disapproval?
The answer is in the wider data. With an increasing average favorability and an increasing average job approval, the polls from Fox News appear to be noise in the bigger picture.
While Trump's average approval is still low, his favorability and approval are higher than where they were when he was elected. Based on his incumbent advantage, a soaring economy, and increasing approval it seems he is on track for 2020 victory.
But the main point here is that you need to see the bigger picture.
After watching this video check our David Pakman's inverse opinion, that Trump is doing bad.

| 0:00.0 | According to a new poll from Zogby, Donald Trump's approval rating smashes a record high |
| 0:06.6 | at 51% they say. President Trump's job approval rating at its best since we've been tracking |
| 0:13.8 | the figure and not only that record support with African Americans at 28%. While that number is |
| 0:21.2 | very low, it's actually really high from where it's been and for a Republican president, it's very |
| 0:25.7 | high. We can see here that the approval ratings are at 51% and disapproval at 47, with around |
| 0:32.7 | 2% not really sure all really really great news for the president. He's been doing great as the |
| 0:38.6 | economy has improved. He's got record low unemployment in the black community which probably |
| 0:43.2 | contributes to the rise in his support. You have prominent black conservatives like Candace Owens |
| 0:47.9 | that is probably helping the president to a great degree. Now here's the thing, I'm a moderate. |
| 0:54.0 | I am not a fan of the orange man bad narrative that's being pushed by the fringe far left |
| 0:59.0 | and the new weirdo Democrats who are promising health care to non-citizens. I think that kind of |
| 1:04.0 | rhetoric is outside American norms and it's getting worse in the Democratic Party. Here's a thing. |
| 1:10.9 | The Democrats are fractured according to the data, Pugh and Gallup and I've talked about this |
| 1:14.4 | many many times which means I as a moderate and at war not with Republicans because the Republicans |
| 1:21.1 | are engaging in somewhat normal Republican behavior that I'm used to but with a new rising |
| 1:27.1 | faction that is damaging my side of the argument. Rational, reasonable conversation debate and moving |
| 1:33.9 | the country forward. Instead we're seeing Nancy Pelosi fight with the squad and we're seeing this |
| 1:39.1 | collapse. Because of this and because I have a wider view of various new sources I tend to air |
| 1:45.5 | on the side of Trump is probably doing well. These polls are probably good but I always look to the |
| 1:52.2 | averages. I always want to make sure that it's not just this one poll that I'm looking at when I'm |
| 1:58.3 | trying to determine if the president is doing well. This is President Trump's job approval and we |
| 2:03.4 | can see it's actually at a high point. It's not the highest it's been there. There were some |
