I have to think that the (seemingly) large support numbers, albeit the worst in history, are due to the fact that many Americans probably don't really follow along to the political process.
Yes, many are bigoted and easily manipulated, but so many don't vote, don't follow politics, etc.
If you polled people who were actually following along to the daily gong show that is this administration, the support numbers would likely be much lower. But I bet many people are being polled who consider themselves educated or following current events, but aren't, and think he's doing a bang up job. Example, people who say 'he's doing what he said he would do'... might fall into that group. Just people who don't critically think or get all the details on the daily scumbaggery.
