A majority of Americans polled in the survey -- 58% -- characterized Trump’s first year of his second term as a “failure,” according to the poll. Just 42% of respondents said Trump’s second term has been a success.
Isn't that the average spread of Democrat versus Republican voters has been? About 52/48?
Actually, Gallup says we're 27% Republican, 27% Democratic, and 45% independent (arc. What's driving these numbers is the fact that the Republican party is a cult -
9 in 10 Republicans back Trump.
According to the article, Trump has very poor support from Independents and virtually none from Democrats, but is getting approval from 9/10 Republicans. I don’t know what to do with such deeply rooted tribal mentality.
At this point, he's just an embarrassment. We need to hold him accountable and the world needs to stop censoring what's really happening.
I really feel that this latest poll will finally start the fire that burns his "Whitehouse of doom" down. /s
Slightly negative poll numbers + strongly-worded letter = REVOLUTION!
I feel majority of americans are in some sort of collective self destructive delusion. Thats the only way you can explain trump presidency - people didn't vote for him, they voted for self harm because they're sick.
Hyperbole aside…the fascists have already taken strong steps to suppress, disqualify and gerrymander away Democratic votes to extend the large advantages they already had.
Before Trump Dems needed to be +3 to win, when he was elected they needed +5, and were looking at as much as a 10% margin required going forward.
42%, if that’s even a real numberr, coupd more than enough to secure a victory. This isn’t even accounting for the fact that Trump and his cult will just change the numbers if they lose.
Let us take a moment to appreciate that this reporting is coming from a news website out of Alabama.
We told you. God damn it, we voted against this. People forgot in 4 years why we voted him out!!!!!! They all can go get bent!!!!!
Does reading a "trump low in the polls" article or two every day make you feel better or optimistic?
People say he's "Gone too far" because if we say what we really think we "Get a visit from the FBI."
In addition to "going too far", he's also too far gone.
Does anyone really think the US isn't a one-parfy authoritarian state at this point?
Don't count on an election.
I'm baffled that some people still seem to presume this will end with the next election
Dear anyone who voted for Trump: we fucking told you so.
That poll primarily shows that a good third of the American public is still to dumb to understand what is happening.
Disastrous poll shows Trump’s White House return is a ‘failure’: Americans say he’s ‘gone too far’ .. and then added "but whatcha gunna do? I'm sure someone else will save us."
Hes just plain stupidly evil. Even without comparing him to sunnier folks and times, he represents thr dregs of humanity
Fuckin' big media. Continually bobbing cat toys up and down just above our heads so we swipe like fools. Bring back truthful journalism again, not big media.
Does anyone think some hacker in thigh-high striped rocks is gonna take one for the team and leak the declassified Epstein Files?
