Record Low Approval Ratings

  • 📉 Donald Trump has set a new dismal record with the lowest approval rating of either of his terms, breaking a previous record set just a week and a half ago.
  • 📊 Polls indicate Trump is anywhere from 14 to 18 points underwater, with disapproval ratings nearing 60%.
  • ⚠️ On specific issues like the economy and immigration, Trump's disapproval ratings are significantly higher, in the high 60s for the economy and double digits underwater for immigration.

Conservative Pollsters and Skewed Data

  • 🧐 Even conservative-leaning pollsters, such as RMG Research (an extension of Rasmussen), are unable to hide Trump's historically bad disapproval ratings.
  • ⏳ RMG Research data shows Trump has gone over three weeks without a positive approval rating, with their latest poll showing him at -5 points underwater.
  • ⚠️ This indicates that even right-wing pollsters are struggling to skew the numbers enough to present Trump in a positive light.

Public Opinion vs. MAGA Supporters

  • 🌐 The speaker emphasizes that vocal MAGA supporters online represent a minority, and the internet is not reflective of real life.
  • 🗣️ Most people in the country do not feel positively about Trump or his actions, and those who do are often perceived as living in a bubble.

Explaining Approval for Trump

  • 🤔 For the 35-40% of the country that still approves of Trump's job, the speaker challenges them to explain what specific policies or actions they approve of.
  • 🚗 The speaker questions approval in the face of rising grocery prices, referencing past concerns about egg affordability.
  • 🚫 It is suggested that approval may stem from racism, with a significant portion of the country holding such views, rather than from Trump's policies improving people's lives.
  • 💰 The only group whose lives may have been improved are the top 1% of income earners.
