I've heard plenty of republican neighbors or friends of friends call Obama or black people n word.  It happens.  I'm in Austin area the supposedly liberal hideout of Texas.

Alot of people use that word and others because they know it's offensive/insulting. Have you ever seen a mexican and a black person argue to the point they're about to fight? They say alot of racist stuff to get at eachother. It doesn't make them racist just by that. 

Yea I see your point.  I've heard plenty of Hispanics call their own people pretty degrading words.  I suppose I do the same considering I have no problem calling someone white trash.  Hell, most very sensitive people would probably consider me racist.  I'd say I'm prejudice but I'm also prejudice against anyone I don't know.  I don't trust anyone I don't know well and expect the worse in people.  That way if they do something nice for me then I can be pleasantly surprised.

You look at approval ratings accross the globe and most all leaders are very very bad. Quite a few even big names are lower than Trump. I'm more inclined to believe that most all people just hate their leaders/govt in general versus it being a sole trump thing.

But as above person said, polls aren't the most reliable things these days.

I'd be very interested in reading your source on that. And the link I shared has past presidents as a comparison point, so of course your apologetics is lacking.

National polls were within 2 points, state polls within 3.7. Have your 3.7, hell have your 5-6 points (like WI polls) and you're still left with a resoundingly abysmal approval rating.

But hey, don't allow facts to tread on your fantasy.
