A new AP-NORC poll finds that 40% of adults approve of Donald Trump’s performance as president, with 59% disapproving.

The also shows “subtle signs of vulnerability for the Republican president. Trump hasn’t convinced Americans that the economy is in good shape, and many question whether he has the right priorities when he’s increasingly focused on foreign intervention. His approval rating on immigration, one of his signature issues, has also slipped since he took office.”

1. I gave up on polls...

There are too many that are skewed.

3. And it seems...

... there's always someone that has a vested interest in skewing them, often those who commission the poll in the first place. It is especially important to notice how the poll questions are phrased. They can be deviously misleading.

9. Exactly.

2. 59% disapprove, yet the media continues to amplify bigot voices, ignoring the strong majority that loathes Donnie

and what he's doing to America.

When they do air our majority view, it's always as a partisan, liberal, democratic, left-wing, protester point of view. Other than briefly when discussing polls like this, you'd never know from the rest of media coverage that most of the country is saying wtf is going on here.

7. But he has Absolute Immunity and The Insurrection Act

Trump doesn't give a fuck what anyone thinks. We can all die for all he cares.

8. Well, is anyone going to do anything about it?

Trump is pure evil, he must be flushed from his ill gotten position of power for good. And he can take his shitty goons with him.
