But he announces his approval rating is 70%, highest in history.

That’s called buyer’s remorse. Great job America.

Remember, America! 🇺🇸
The Majority of Americans-Do Not Support Trump!
Trump got Just @77 Million Votes.‬
‪That's LESS THAN 35% of @245 Million Eligible Voters!‬
‪OVER 100 MILLION Voters-VOTED AGAINST Trump!
‪OVER 90 MILLION Voters-DIDN'T EVEN VOTE!‬
‪More Americans Didn't Vote-Than Voted for Trump!

It’s really hard not to hold a grudge against those non-voters right now.

There's no honeymoon with this guy.

9hertfordstreet.bsky.social•1 day ago

All in a matter of weeks. The sooner that he blames chainsaw guy the better.

t-go345.bsky.social•1 day ago

Hope he doesn't start a war to improve his numbers. He doesn't have the brain power to do something like that and is much to much a sissy to endure it.

sjseidel.bsky.social•1 day ago

And yet, yesterday CNN framed this as “Trump has his highest approval ratings.”
Upon closer reading, it was that his current approval ratings are higher than he ever had in his first term.
I wish I had a screenshot.

Sadly, short of him being impeached: his approval rating doesn't matter.

Soon enough, the FBI will drag his opponents in for "questioning".🤦‍♂️🤬

I’m not sure that they get it, I don’t think Trump cares what others think, he just wants the money and power. And I don’t think he’s leaving office, no laws for him, just what he wants. The king will keep his throne. ✌️

The king and his stooges need to be deposed for the common good of the Country.

Before he turns the USA into a Haiti or Somalia.

Trump and his gang keep making new promises to the Cult, now it's $5000 checks, nothing he promised will get done not even mass deportations

I feel obligated to say this every time. Listen to your guts, look at the data, look at how they are conducting themselves, look at their history. Trump and Musk rigged this election, he did not win freely and fairly. He does not have a mandate.

me-cate.bsky.social•1 day ago

Ummm...he doesn't care. Approval is not what he's after.

And they will continue to fall as long as they economy struggles. Trump has shown no ability to right that ship and seems to be actively sabotaging it.

MAGA voters aren't swayed by much, but light wallets pisses everyone off.

Unfortunately dictators don’t care about polls

nerftractor.bsky.social•1 day ago

His approval rating matters zero now. He has all the toys. The time to give a shit was last November.

Honeymoon didn’t last a month, neither did democracy.

benevoluspf.bsky.social•1 day ago

Maybe because he’s destroying what is at the very heart of America.

pwlorraine.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Does Trump still care about poll numbers and popularity? I suspect he only cares that people believe he is popular as that belief translates into congressional support.

oskeewawa1984.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Love you man, but stop reporting like a normal day in the life. You actually have a platform, unlike all of us. This is why they have deleted all the Inspectors General and are wiping out DOJ and FBI. By the time there's another "vote", it won't be a real vote.

You do serious harm by trying to convince people that this is happening, or that it would matter.

thekm5.bsky.social•1 day ago

That’s because he wasn’t popular prior to the election. Further supporting the notion that there is ZERO chance he won every swing state. ZERO!

The felon and traitor to America really doesn’t care. He wants to inflict maximum damage on America and it’s institutions.

bama93003.bsky.social•1 day ago

The economy was never trumps thing. He inherited a booming economy from Obama and promptly ran it to the ground with his disastrous handling of COVID. The GOP always fucks up the economy and then they take credit after democrats fix it. Democrats are just fucking terrible at messaging🤬

imdelisi.bsky.social•22 hours ago

He didn’t even get to 50% of the pathetic numbers of voters who bothered to take the election seriously and show up, and only with the help of BS + Elon and whatever shenanigans he was up to.

cieloazulnm.bsky.social•22 hours ago

What is concerning, is that Trump won't believe he needs popularity or votes to stay in office. What he will need is the force and will of a few to remain in power.

drgps.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Carl, thanks for keeping it real & factual. What in the world is wrong with Jim Cramer? His sycophancy knows no bounds!

readingwarrior.bsky.social•1 day ago

The fact that he has a net positive shows that his supporters have no idea how what he is doing impacts them. The national bird should be the ostrich.

Dictators do not pay attention to approval ratings. Otherwise what's the point of being a dictator?

Just wait till we hit a major recession and the unemployment numbers start going up every month
