  2. Isn’t that what those MAGA assholes voted for? Despite warnings from virtually ALL economic, political, and scientific experts…they STILL voted for hatred over the good of the country.

  4. Only 17% of republicans tells me that republicans are actually mostly evil, egotistical assholes.

  5. It’s really sad these people vote against themselves time and time again. Hanging on to the obvious lies of a con man, even willing hurt themselves and their fellow Americans. They are so mad but instead of facing reality and realizing who’s at fault, themselves, republicans, and trump, they blame the libs because they can’t face their own inadequacies, it would would destroy who the think they are.

  6. Most americans should have voted for the black woman instead of shrugging shoulders and saying stupid shit like “im one of the good ones” or “theyre both the same thing” or “im not feeling this campaign”

  8. Too bad most =/= an electoral majority. But I’m sure we’ll meaning liberals will protect MAGA from the full consequences of their actions

  9. I’m so fuckin’ tired of these “most Americans” polls. Like, no shit. “Most Americans” hated him on election day, but unfortunately a bunch of them didn’t fucking show up, and now we have to deal with this lunatic and the consequences of his arrogant stupidity.

    Meanwhile the dipshits who voted for him are still strapped into their cult bubble thinking that he’s “playing 4D chess” even as their jobs disappear and their businesses fail.

  10. That was only through March 20th. Just wait until the next poll…

  11. We as a nation should physically remove him from office then.

  13. All of the MAGAs who thought they wanted something like this just proved they have no idea what words mean. Their idea of a dictatorship is laughably wrong.

  14. People really need to understand that the laughable and outrageous things Trump says are not jokes.

  15. Would’ve been nice if the media was more honest about what trump was before the election, rather than figuring out how to “both-sides” everything. Project 2025 was published out in the open for everyone to read.

  16. That’s because he IS a dangerous dictator. Name it. Get rid of it.

  17. Why didn’t Americans see it before the election?

    Trump promised tariffs, revenge and retribution. He wanted to be a dictator on the first day.

    Are people really that stupid or we never take this deranged man seriously?

  19. And this poll was done back before March 20. So many more actions have been taken by T47. Would love to see it re-run today.

  21. Oh good. Glad yall finally started paying attention. It’d been really nice if tall could have listened a few months ago but yeah it’s real nice you realize it now. Peachy.

  23. Evidently most Americans breathe through their mouths.

  24. If you average all three parties together it is actually 53.3%

    Then we need to consider the fact that a lot of people do not engage with polls at all but still consider Trump a menace.

    Trump is “investigating” negative polls, so we need to be aware that they will soon be falsely supportive if they are not already.

    TBH I’m still highly skeptical that Trump was not elected due to fraud this time around.

    Anyway, what I’m saying is do not believe that anyone really likes this cancerous peice of shit and his blatant disregard for the economic well being of farmers and business owners who voted for him.

    The revolution will not be televised.

  25. I wonder what the poll numbers are now, not back in February when this poll was from.

  27. Well, most Americans should have showed up to vote in November.

  28. Finally. It only took surrendering your country into the hands of fascists to understand why you should’ve voted democrats. Granted, this realization comes way too late. The next step is realizing you’ll have to get out in to the streets and stand up to the tyrant if you want your country back. This realization will probably also come way too late. 

  29. Well, Trump actually told you guys that’s exactly what he planned on becoming, and you chose to elect him anyway…

    So, as a Canadian, my “feel bad” for Americans generally, can only run so deeply, until the rest of the world sees some intended use of 2a. To prove you aren’t willing to just go down with the ship.

  31. It’s quite astonishing, after watching his actions for 100 days, there are still 48% of people who doesn’t think he is dangerous.

  33. “You’re just overreacting. Go back to sleep.”

    /S

    But seriously, isn’t everybody else exhausted by seeing that line the harder the screw turns?

  35. Another ground breaking article from r/politics. The concern is very real now. My brow is at level 4 furrowing and climbing.

  36. He’s going to leave the country a weak, disunited mess.

    If it’ll ever recover that remains to be seen.

    The next 4 years are just going to be one constant rollercoaster ride.

  37. 52% is a depressingly small margin for “most.”

    I mean the poll has a stated margin of error of 1.69% and this is just slightly outside of that.

    Republicans seem like a lost cause with 83% approving of his actions so far. Like… what does it take to convince people that Trump is a danger to them? He just denied FEMA relief to several red states including one currently led by his former former White House Press Secretary. He’s not even willing to support his core people anymore.

  38. And when a Democrat President is back in the White House, the poll will say 95% of Republicans think the President is destroying the country.

    The difference is, this isn’t just saying it (as Republicans love to do), our economy is weakened, our strength in the world has been diminished, our support of our allies is now completely in question (and will be for generations – nobody will trust Americans again to certain extent if we did this to the world twice now). He is now in open defiance to the judicial branch and the legislative branch lets him do whatever he wants to without any checks whatsoever.

    Despite all of the fantasy persecution of the Democrats against their Holy Donald (reality is simply that he’s done what he’s done, sorry Republicans) we now see a President just openly using the government to punish any perceived enemy, and truly in the shape of an American dictator.

  39. Most Canadians think he’s a fascist piece of Nazi shit. From the beginning.

  41. The use of the word “now” there implies a fair number of americans are morons.

  42. Here I see polls like this, I go on some other site (YouTube for example) and polls say the opposite.

    I think we can’t trust polls entirely lol
