Showing Original Post only (View all)AMAZING HOW golfing, trolling on social media, ballroom building, and raising prices equals low ratings for Trump. [View all]
The problem with America, as Trump has pointed out many times, is that people just don't appreciate him enough. Nor do they show respect for the great work being done by shadow presidents Stephen Miller and Russell Vought. Ungrateful bastards.CNN data analyst Harry Enten was left floored Sunday after new polling showed President Donald Trumps support among independents has plummeted to staggering lows just shy of a year into his second term.
According to the new data, Trumps net approval rating among independent voters fell by a stunning 42 points from January to December, from -1 to -43, a drop so severe that Enten compared the president to French oceanographer and filmmaker Jacques Cousteau, known for his undersea expeditions.
We're talking about 43 points underwater come December, that is a decline of 42 points on his net approval rating! Enten exclaimed. Donald Trump is hanging out with Jacques Cousteau; that is how far underwater Donald Trump is with independents at this point!
Driving Trumps plummeting approval ratings were two key issues: the economy and immigration. On the economy, Trump enjoyed a +9 approval when he took office in January, an approval that fell by 25 points to -16 by December. On immigration, Trumps approval fell by 15 points in the same time period, from +9 in January to -6 by December.

The difference, I believe, is that Congress would not kowtow to the Mascara Macho.

It just shows you that Independents are idiots, they would be Democrats if they had a brain.

Yes, it's really disheartening how many actually seem to believe both sides suck, and there's no real difference.

I found it funny. And it's nice to see someone still alive remembers Jasques Cousteau.

And I liked him and his stories. Why is his rankings so low? Perhaps I missed something...
