  1. People still paying for Nate Silver and his crystal ball? Lol

  5. Headline writers are gonna do their thing.

    Silver’s actual data disappoint. Pedo Don’s net disapproval is 1% worse than it was at the same point in his first term. 55.9% vs. 54.9%.

    Rumors of a mass abandonment of loyalty to the fascist shithead are greatly exaggerated.

    For aggregated national opinion polling, 1% variation is statistical noise. His adoring minions dont care if he raped kids or is destroying the economy or taking every bribe he can get.

    They love him. They are bad people too. They get off on seeing ICE abusing non-white families and SNAP benefits cut and all the rest. The cruelty was always the point.

  6. And… nothing changes? I’m sick of these headlines and it somehow still gets worse.

  7. I can’t wait for all the documentaries about this presidency and the brainwashing of the American people.

  8. President Grump. All he does is insult, troll, and make things more expensive.

  9. They may be disapproving him but they sure as shit ain’t unsupporting him.

  12. The problem is never how low his disapproval rating is, but how much we can motivate people to vote for us.

    He didn’t strive to be like-able, he strive to be less hate-able comparing to his opponets.

    Truth be told, if we have an election today with him vs Harris, Harris still probably not going to win.

    And he is still the most popular comparing to the senate, congress, SCOTUS, and majority of the popular US political figures.

    He has been losing votes, but we didn’t really gain much votes too. We need to have a pathway, and a leader, not Chuck and his old way

  14. All noise. It’s not like his approval ratings are in teens, either.

    The guy could go downhill severely tomorrow but MAGA will still paint him as this amazing God trying to fix the country or some BS.

  15. > Meanwhile, a Fox News poll found this week that 76 percent of voters view the economy negatively. This makes Trump less popular on the economy than former President Joe Biden. At the end of his presidency in 2024, Fox News polling showed that 70 percent of people viewed the economy negatively.

    And yet his Republican approval rating is still at 82%. It’s not the economy, stupid.

  16. If this is accurate it still means ~45% of Americans approve of his performance which is the bigger headline in my opinion.

  17. I kind of like it better framed as his approval rating, and then see a burning low number. He’s probably hovering at 44% now, but it should be in the 30’s by this point, given all he has done.

    Trump has basically behaved like a criminal who has been told that the police are unable to touch him because of his working title of “president.” So, he’s doing what he wants and absolutely free of guilt or fear. And he’s pissing a lot of people off, especially those who he promised all sorts of nice things like lower inflation, lower prices, more jobs with higher wages, affordable mortgage rates, no new wars…

  18. It’s still lower than Biden in the end, which tells you just how fucked the US is.

    >I HAVE JUST GOTTEN THE HIGHEST POLL NUMBERS OF MY “POLITICAL CAREER.” While my great work in the Economy has not yet been fully appreciated, it will be! THINGS ARE REALLY Rockin’. Stopping WARS and Foreign Relations seems to be a strong suit. Also great, The Border and Stopping Crime. I predict that the Economy, with the already HIGHEST STOCK MARKET, EVER, and prices coming sharply down from the Biden disaster, will soon be at the top of the list. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

    False alarm guys. I guess like everything else this was just a fake news poll.

  22. Oh hey it’s almost like his first term was a shitshow too and we should have learned our lesson

  24. Yet he still there, that is like being in a relationship with a cheater but blaming whoever the person they cheat with. 

  26. A lot of scholars are saying it’s a disgrace. Bigly.

  28. Maybe he could go with another sweater combo…surely that will fix it!

  29. Until his brain finally melts the last blinkering synaptic cleft into an insurmountable hurdle for his mouth to make utterances vaguely resemblant of actual words (if not coherent ones), to the point even HE disagree with himself within the death of of his final neuron as well as the same utterance, it will still be too high.

    Quantum physics hurry up and save us, please.

  30. Newsweek 2 hrs from now. ‘Trump sees largest increase in support since first term’
