Summary

Donald Trump has the lowest approval rating of any newly elected U.S. president since World War II, except for himself in 2017.

While his immigration policies and government downsizing have support, controversial moves—like ending birthright citizenship and renaming the Gulf of Mexico—face strong opposition.

Economic concerns, particularly rising prices, remain a major issue for voters.

Analysts say Trump’s popularity will likely hinge on broader economic and immigration policies, with potential political consequences for Republicans in the 2026 elections.

    This is what I keep saying to my friends when we argue politics

    We can no longer just say that Dumpster Don is an idiot

    We can now say that the entire US is one giant collective idiot

    The nation is dumb … so is it any wonder that they have a dumb leader?

      It makes me so sad. I live here and I feel constant shame, anger, depression. I always say the right is filled with hate, but I find myself hating and it bothers me. I try to understand everyone.

      But we’re reaching the point of how much tolerance should intolerant people be shown? And I’m over it personally, fuck anybody who voted for him/not at all and fuck him too.
