Anyone check Gallup today?

Yup. The majority of the change has come from GOP folks having a higher favorable view of him, with a lesser boost from independents.

But the thing is... Gallup also said that "as of December 2019, Gallup polling found that 28% of Americans identified as Democrat, 28% identified as Republican, and 41% as Independent."

94% of 28% = 26.32; 42% of 41% is 17.22; and 7% of 28% = 1.96. That would get Trump 45.5% of the vote.

Quote
Trump's approval rating has risen because of higher ratings among both Republicans and independents. His 94% approval rating among Republicans is up six percentage points from early January and is three points higher than his previous best among his fellow partisans. The 42% approval rating among independents is up five points, and ties three other polls as his best among that group. Democratic approval is 7%, down slightly from 10%.

The 87-point gap between Republican and Democratic approval in the current poll is the largest Gallup has measured in any Gallup poll to date

A neighbor left some bags in front, I offered to help but she waved her arms and said no inglis. Bergen county is rapidly becoming Seoul county. If you will not bother to learn English please leave! Probably extended family of an anchor baby.

"NV Dems can confidently say that what happened in the Iowa caucus last night will not happen in Nevada on February 22nd. We will not be employing the same app or vendor used in the Iowa caucus,” Nevada State Democratic Party Chair William McCurdy II said in a statement.

“We had already developed a series of backups and redundant reporting systems, and are currently evaluating the best path forward,” he added.

Yes.

Which is not the same as "Nevada said their app was never the same," Kid. They originally were going to use the same app. Now they are not.

Why is that so hard for you to grasp?

She speaks perfectly good English. She probably knows enough about you to want nothing to do with you.

 Pete in the lead,  with 62% precinct reporting.

As David Brooks said,  "Buttigieg is an old person's idea of a young candidate. "

Iowa held a caucus for snowbirds in Phoenix yesterday. The winner? Amy Klobuchar, of course.

“Rob Portman doesn't support conviction on impeachment, though he acknowledges Trump did what he's accused of. But he also doesn't support censure, because it's "a remedy with no consequence." So, basically, Rob Portman supports allowing Trump to do whatever he wants with no consequence.“

I was rooting for amiable Amy,  and hoping her being from the state next door,  and speaking Northern Prairie lingo,  would give her a boost.   And,  as Boz noted,  she knows how to improvise cutlery when the situation calls for it. 

Caucuses (Nebraska had them for ten years) have a peer pressure element I wasn't all that crazy about.   Plus they screwed up the state-level offices primary later.
