π¨ In one of the first national polls (per @dataforprogress.org & @boldprogressives.org) conducted since Trump's tariff announcement:
By a 2 to 1 (60% to 31%) margin, independents say Trumpβs tariffs will hurt Americans -- and 55% of overall voters agree.

Or the blonde lady.
I mean, the Fox News propaganda machine runs DEEP with their base.
Even economic ruin won't change their minds (which is coming fast). True cult believers.
I won't be impressed until I see 70-80% figures.
This is an unmitigated disaster and he did it to himself.
Twice.
Buncha empty headed dolts.
Did they ACTUALLY need to be set on fire to learn that itβs hot? π€¦ββοΈπ

While it was being done, was the name of the conducting organization displayed?
Were the questions worded as shown on this graphic, (without results of course)?
The 3rd question should have been #1.
I heartily agree, it will hurt us all!
And this is the party of fiscal responsibility and good business. π€¦
In fact, there are illogical explanations to tariff decision, still not saying itβs a tax.
It shows the power of Fox propaganda

No matter how crazy Trumpβs action may seem, a super majority of Republicans will always approve of him.
Just about half, Iβd wager, think this dude is doing an okay job.
What in the actual fuck would it take this moron doing, for his poll numbers to be lower than this?
Heβs. Trying. To. Take. Their. Social. Security.
Weβre doomed. These people will happily gas us.
Jesus wept.
Gentle reminder that stupidity is more dangerous than malice.
Maybe, just maybe, reality will wake them up now...
He rarely loses more than 10-15%. 20% on his worst actions.
Feeling very ashamed for fellow Independents. π Something drastically wrong has happened with fmr. Republicans' mindset (party is now dead; poor Abraham Lincoln π)
It seems to have leapt over and infected a portion here too. ππͺ

Australia has an election in the offing, the conservatives identified with the orange buffoon in January.
But being antivaxxers, they are unable to inoculate themselves from right wing idiocy in time.
Long may Trumpβs legacy remind voters what happens when you are stupid.
Very likely due to intentional distortion of the news by Fox et al, but we need EVERYONE (or as many as possible) on the same side here.
We're closely related countries even as we're very different in many ways.
You are being increasingly shunned until the GOP are gone & it will take decades to heal.π€·π»ββοΈ
Heβs a sadist.
It should be 67-33 or better.

Markets are falling faster than a stockbroker from a 20th story window, but they are still drinking the Kookaidβ’οΈ, which they're now paying a tariff on, and going back for more.

ONLY 55%??? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?
Seriously, read a book, man.
Please move forward, stupid America!
Got it β
But there will be real sticker shock when the prices jump all at once.
Right now itβs all theoretical to them, but reality is coming π
Help us, Brian!
Youβve got a huge audience!
People, don't forget the party that has fucked you. It's the GOP and Trump.
If you were worried about trans athletes in sports, you can now worry about which dog food to eat and what appliance box makes the best home.
