We should start a rumour that the real reason Gallup isn't doing presidential approval ratings anymore is that Trump's approval ratings have gone negative and a codebase full of unsigned integers is too expensive to fix.

@mhoye this is why Fahrenheit sets 0 at "colder than Denmark" because the dude wasn't into negative numbers.

unsigned integers appeals to a certain type of person and (if I am at all representative of that type of person) there would countervailing annoyance at the idea of a negative approval rating, which is similar to "giving 110%"

@mhoye I worked for them once, they're heavy Oracle users -- that's why I was acqui-hired when the bought my employer.
When they flew us in to their HQ in Nebraska to see the inner workings of their sanctum and meet the execs, the CEO skipped out on our meeting because he had to fly to DC to have an emergency meeting/dinner with Bush. This would have been around March 2008. Probably so they could discuss the polls. In February 2008, McCain was ahead of Clinton and Obama in the polls, but that flipped in early March.
The truth is more likely that they're corrupt and they were trying to agree on how to "fix" it. -
