President Donald Trump’s approval ratings have dropped to their lowest level since the start of his second term.
According to the NBC News Decision Desk Poll released on Sunday, only 37 percent of adults approve of Trump’s work as president. Meanwhile, 63 percent disapprove, including 50 percent who disapprove strongly. Some of that strong disapproval comes from Trump’s handling of skyrocketing costs for most households: Among the over 32,000 American adults that NBC News surveyed over two weeks in March and April, 52 percent said they “strongly disapprove” and 16 percent “somewhat disapprove” of Trump’s handling of inflation and the cost of living.
That’s a large disapproval jump compared to a few months ago. When NBC News asked the same inflation question to Americans last August, 45 percent noted they “strongly disapprove”—seven percentage points lower than this month’s results.
The NBC results also suggest that Trump is beginning to lose his voter base. The number of Republicans who approve of Trump’s performance on inflation sank by 10 percentage points (from 83 to 73 percent) since last summer. The poll also found that overall support for the president dropped by four percentage points (from 87 to 83 percent) among his Republican support in just two months.
What’s wrong with those 37%?
Well some have a ‘team sports’ ideology where your team is your team, no matter what may come. So you always support ‘your team’ or else you are a bad person. Nevermind that ‘your team’ displays no loyalty to you and screws you…
What’s scary is that beyond Trump’s 37%, there’s still some people that will now badmouth Trump and what he has done, and perhaps their biggest worry is that because Trump did so badly, the Republicans will lose power. They get actively screwed on economy and foreign wars while the party cheers on and they still say “well at least they aren’t democrats”
Then there’s the folks that are at least happy that they are grabbing hispanics off the streets. Was exposed to a conservative ranting about wasting our resources in Venezula, of being too cozy with Israel especially with the Iran war, and even going so far as to blame the Israeli relationship for the death of Charlie Kirk… But at least he was doing something about those scary Mexicans…
