US President Donald Trump

The Rasmussen poll, one of the most accurate polls of the 2020 election, finds President Trump's approval is actually rising after Wednesday's protests.

As Democrats move to impeachment and some establishment Republicans call for the 25th Amendment to remove Trump, the poll finds 48% approve of the President's job performance.

A source close to the polling firm tells Newsmax that the rolling survey saw Trump's approval soar to 51% on Thursday night.

Trump's approval has been up overall, jumping from 45% just before Christmas.

"Americans are disgusted that cities burned for months and Washington and the media did nothing," our source says, "But they still like Trump."

Comment: Totalitarian states need a large population of "domestic terrorists" against which to battle. They have successfully managed to create a pseudo-reality in which that is true. For a long time, the U.S. was seen as the world-standard for "freedom and democracy." For many years, this has been a lie. Now it's an absurd joke. Welcome to 2021.
