Until it’s single digits, I remain convinced we live in the dumbest country on the planet. Minus 12 on abducting folks off the streets and selling them into slavery? Not great.
Glad U made this point. This is a real problem. I'm blue dot in an eternally isolated region: folks who have not traveled out of their own counties 2 see their state capitol; folks w/o reliable internet service if they can afford it btw; folks whose schools have been underfunded 4 decades. =distrust
Alright, but they shouldn’t have fucking voted for it then. The sadistic, fascist, unimaginably cruel American voter should have their heads smashed into this fucking brick wall until as such time as they stop being the absolute goddamn WORST!!!
I thought we learned that polling is useless. The talk is that Dems lost everything following best polling practices and trump won everything sticking to popular messages of racial superiority and "compassion is for losers." So fuck your polls analysis.
Remember too, the absolute worst that Trump can get is 35 disapprove because 5% will always be clueless and 30% of the county are full on fascist at this point.
Unfortunately who matters play reality tv daily in the White House while his teams implement authoritarianism. Congress also matters but too many still prefer Christian/Jeudo authoritarianism or their techno fascists or their corporate sponsors.
He only fucking promised most of it. Maybe people should have paid attention and believed him. 3.5 more years of saying "I told you so" is going to get boring very quickly.
Uh, no.... everyone hates 34-felon and his sycophants and *those* creeps say "everyone hates everything" because they can't admit they really really are hated... by everyone.
MAGA hate liberals and LGBTQ and undocumented and some MAGA despise POC. Not everyone hates 34. Millions voted for him and still rabidly support him. I see those jerks all over. But the hate is strong on all sides and disappointment turning to hate even IN-party in the Dems. I see that, too.
And yet when people on the more liberal side go against their own at a time like this for lesser reasons--lesser than this authoritarian /power abuse threat-- it empowers the other side. It can be pretty damn self-destructive.
It is not self defeating AT ALL to be critical of politians who represent themselves as the defenders of freedom, but who are so passive as to be useless—-and, worse, they actually enable the authoritarian agenda by voting for their nominees. THOSE Democrats are the ones who are self defeating!!!

Read the reports I have produced, then decide if I know what I'm talking about.
Fyi I fully comprehend the horrific actions I am seeing in the CECOT satellite images.
No matter how much anyone says otherwise, this is a site that begins the statement
"The Americans knew too".
Nah. They love the drama. There should be zero surprises them. But considering how many were anti biden (therefore pro trump) still refuse their responsibility (but sure are signaling and are performing!)
Iow: if voters could actually think, their hatred of this wouldnt be needed
Pew Research is the easiest to point to why. They do “poverty” reports. Their working definition of “middle class” is 2/3rds of the average wage in a metro area. I did the math for Portland Oregon with that definition. With zero money for anything beyond essentials and using only public transit you
Thats based on a good budget for one person at the $192 food stamp a single person could get. The cost of a 1 bedroom apartment and so on. Just super basics. That’s not a single cup of coffee, movie or any entertainment whatsoever ever. No
And that is exactly what is wrong and inadequate, in my view. The real destruction of the country is well underway, but people will not react until it hits them, personally, in the pocketbook? Talk about lack of empathy, lack of understanding, selfishness, and too little, too late!
Casual reminder that none of those numbers matter since there's a snowball's chance in hell these manic criminals allow an actual free untampered election.
But within those numbers, what percentage were republican, democrat , indie et al; respondents. We know non MAGA voters cannot change our trajectory on our own.
I honestly wonder if the polls matter at this point. Even if it does get Congressional GOP to act will they act beyond the performative? 47 got elected, rendered Congress insignificant, & is challenging the Judicial branch. Why does he care abt polls when he is positioned to disappear dissenters?
Do we need to remind ourselves that that's what being anti-democratic means?...they don't care what the populace thinks, likes, or hates; they only care about what they can put over...what they can get away with.
Yea, I fucking hate this shut, but less convinced about the country overall.
Polls also said Clinton would win and that Harris was leading by the end. I suspect people are much fucking worse human beings than the polls indicate. Completely fucking irredeemable.
If the strategy changes from "fake news" to a different Miller/Goebbels tactic, it seems likely to be revoking access to outlets or jailing journalists.
They're not spinning it, they're just outright lying. last week he'd released media that he's the best president in the history of the US and his ratings have never been higher.
Then the actual stats dropped that sunday and he was like -13 and officially got the lowest approval rating in history.
So yes you admit that ignorant voters are the problem, you're just in denial because you're one of them. Congratulations on being a useful idiot for the nazis
IMO, I don’t think MAGA is hearing the truth about what’s going on. There may be a mention of a hiccup on Fox, but they’re not delivering the cold, hard facts.
Wait until the trade war impacts hit and MAGA starts having catastrophes.
We are approaching a point where summer is starting and there won't be any pool noodles or floaties for the white kids to play with in suburban public pools while a parent sleeps.
They got pissed at being forced to spend time with their kids during Covid imagine if they have to do that again AND with no toys and electronics to distract, actually talk to them. Imagination Christmas indeed!
i vote in my own countries elections. but you aren't going to sell people on civic participation if the most inspiring thing on offer is a paper mache placeholder against The Worst Of It.
WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEMAND THE PUBLIC CRIMINAL TRIAL OF DONALD TRUMP FOR ACTS CONTRARY TO THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES. HE IS A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER TO THE UNITED STATES, IT'S PEOPLE, OUR MILITARY AND OUR ECONOMY.
It be interesting to find out how many people and your state who voted for your senators or your House of Representatives Congress person are getting phone calls every single day about the idiocy. Excuse me the approach of this administration.
The lies from this administration are making me angry. No one is challenging the emperor who’s not wearing any clothes and lies about everything he does.
I mean they doubled down after that dude shot up their softball practice so maybe actually offing a few cause gravely wounding them and making them fear an angry mob hasn't moved them
And when they come back, you can rest assured that bastardized caricature of a keebler elf who thinks he's the second coming of moses will ratfuck every single attempt to do anything useful.
They want the racist rogue cop from a buddy movie, and they keep voting for it --but that guy doesn't exist. The racist rogue cop is a monster, and he murders people. We can feel some relief that a portion of them--when seeing the guy they projected charm onto do monstrous things--they're unhappy.
Sucks there isn’t much we can do about it (besides write or call Congress over and over which is what I do, sorry senators Reed and Whitehouse) till 2026. Pressure works but we still have to wake up to this shit every morning and see his 🤡 face on the news.
They'll elect Democrats who then have to spend all their time fixing what the GOP broke. The GOP will say the Dems "got nothing done" and the same voters will the re-elect the GOP...
The endless cycles of American electoral politics.
No mulligans. The country elected a man who was plainly a rapist, a fraudster, a felon, and a traitor. This will be a learning moment for tens of millions about cause and effect, and about consequences for bad decisions. Unfortunately, the rest of us will suffer greatly with them.
Good, but the disapproval numbers should be much much higher! Not enough people are paying attention or they’re too brainwashed by bs to see wtf is going on & by the time they do it may be too late
In USA there are 202,772,255 pop.age 18-64 or 61%. At the age of 65+ there are 55,742,302 pop. at 16.84%.That total is
258,742,302 adults in the USA.
44%= 113,846,613
are very very SCARY and very very RACIST, and very very TRUMP'S WORSHIPPERS and very very STUPID people who will destroy the USA!
The fact that his “best” issue right now is *immigration,* as he human-trafficks US citizen kids and sends people to concentration camps, make these polls still not really a positive IMO. The country is filled with fucking ghouls.
I have to think it’s going to get worse in a few weeks. A lot of people are still in their right wing media bubble and hear everything presented in the most optimistic manner possible. There won’t be 90 trade deals. Service cuts and unemployment will touch them. They’ll feel it before hearing of it.
“They’ll feel it before hearing of it” is the perfect encapsulation of how this will play out. Not just for the rabid, hardline MAGA crowd; even more for the disengaged, low-info folks who voted for Trump on a vibe and are completely unaware of 90 percent of what he’s doing.
A closer read of the data suggests they love certain fucked up shit like deportations. Hell, the latest AP-NORC poll suggested a vast number of Rs and Is think he hasn't gone far enough.

So we are more than half-way there.
We are absolutely missing our moment to honor OUR cry for "Never Again!"
We ARE witnessing the beginning of our children having to state
"The Americans knew and ignored it as well."
I have almost no hope anymore because plugging podcasts is more advantageous than burning down the regime that IS forcing us into complicity.
Read the reports I have produced, then decide if I know what I'm talking about.

Ignore this and we have lost our moment completely.

You had a chance to stop this.
You failed epically.
Who knew?
MUCH MORE ACTION!!
HIT THE STREETS!!!!
He knows it won't come from the current congress.
His retribution will come directly from the people.

Choices always carry consequences!
This shit!
This shit right here!
It gives me hope!
It raises a lot of questions about how this is happening again.
Call me again when it gets to 3/10 vs. 7/10 or better 1/5 vs. 4/5. Then I’ll know it’s torches & pitchforks time.🔥

-fake polls?
-the deep state propaganda?
-great mexican food?
you are right.

We fucking warned them.
Stupid / ignorant voters AND bad politicians with dogshit policies.
it's the millions of people who don't vote for president because they see both sides as corrupt arms of the same body
pathetic 🙄
I'm looking at the shit show every hour of EVERY FUCKING DAY wondering," how are his the numbers so damned high?"
Surely,to God, there aren't really 4 out of 10 people who think he's doing a good job.
REALLY?
We are approaching a point where summer is starting and there won't be any pool noodles or floaties for the white kids to play with in suburban public pools while a parent sleeps.
Maybe then the monster will awaken.
if people are told, "Just pinch your nose and do it," then eventually they are going to be skeptical they'll ever to get breathe again.
Please pass it on.
My apologies for the interruption.
The endless cycles of American electoral politics.
How quickly the American public forgets.
