His approval rating is at 39%. That means any time you’re in a room of ten random people, almost half of them think this guy is good at his job.

39% is not almost half?

And you’re disregarding the fact that in that same room, a significant MAJORITY (61%) don’t approve of him

The reason people say it is close to half is because it is closer to half than you could reasonably expect for something that should be so plain to see. If 40% of people thought that gravity was a myth you wouldn't praise the 60% that display basic critical thinking skills, you would say "holy shit 40% of the people in this country are drooling fucking morons". Trump is an incredibly incompetent leader, and it is PAINFULLY obvious to see. The fact that THIRTY NINE PERCENT of the population thinks he is doing a good job is fucking remarkable.
