I am starting over with post-midterm polls. Note that I have approval if positive and 100 less disapproval (which I have typically thought President Trump's ceiling) if negative. This will probably be neater.

I apologize for the anticlimax applicable here. It's Massachusetts. Cue tuba fanfare and trombone, descending glissando from The Price I$ Right .

Trump approval 33, disapproval 66.
Remember -- Massachusetts can vote for the 'right' Republican. It voted twice for Reagan (skill set) and twice for Eisenhower (temperament). It once voted for Mitt Romney for Governor. It also has a Republican Governor now.
The Republican Governor Charlie Baker has 73% approval and 21% disapproval. But 52% of those polled thought Baker very different from Trump. That is about the same number that distinguishes Charlie Barker from the GOP as a whole. He would still lose in the primary to Trump.
Massachusetts voters approve of their state legislature 57-32 (which is likely one of the best ratings in America)but only 17% approve of the current Congress and 75% disapprove (which is one of the harshest judgments of Congress, I suspect) .
