And that's from Fox Lite!!!

Seriously, though, what an absolute catastrophe is unfolding for the GOP. Way too many young people voted for Trump thinking he might do more for them than the geriatric old man. But EVERY SINGLE THING Trump has done has been a punch in the balls to young Americans. And they know it. It's only getting harder to find a job. It's only getting harder to buy a house or a car. It's only getting harder to afford childcare. All of this was COMPLETELY predictable if you were actually paying attention in the campaign season, but it's sure as hell hitting them in the nose now. A 54-point swing in two months??? That's extraordinary right there.
 
The CBS/YouGov poll had this:
  • Do you approve of trump’s handling of immigration? NO, by a 12-point margin
  • Do you approve of trump’s handling of Iran? NO, by a 12-point margin
  • Do you approve of trump’s handling of the Israel-Hamas situation? NO, by a 14-point margin
  • Do you approve of trump’s putting tariffs on other countries? NO, by a 20-point margin
  • Do you approve of trump’s Big “Beautiful” bill? NO, by a 22-point margin
  • Do you think that bill will help or hurt your family? HURT, by a 2 to 1 margin
  • Do you approve of trump’s handling of the Epstein situation? NO, by a 50-point margin
  • Should the DOJ release all the information on the Epstein case? YES, by a 78-point margin

Still, I don't think elected Republicans at this point care much about all of the above. They want to please their Jim Jones style cult leader, and if they have any normal decent morality (and most don't) they will never act on it out of fear of Trump.
 

Resilient Trump Lifted by Improved View of the Economy, WSJ Poll Finds​

President’s job rating holds steady despite dim views of his tax-and-spending law, tariff policies and the government’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation​

“… Some 46% approve of his job performance—unchanged from April—with 52% disapproving.…”

The most damning part of that YouGov poll might be Trump's standing with men. He's 6 points underwater with a 47 approval rating vs. a 53 disapproval.
If he loses the manosphere...
 
Democrats tried to warn everyone what a disaster Trump 2.0 would be again. And before the board Trump cucks come along and start screaming about the dims lost because of immigration and inflation, well..... he's way underwater with those two issues as well.

Guess fear sells... or at the very least causes some form of amnesia.

Maybe it's as simple as Trump on the campaign trail seems refreshing, irreverent, etc., but Trump in the Oval Office seems like the ignorant, impulsive asshole he actually is. No idea why so many people were convinced by the campaign version after we saw him act like an ignorant impulsive asshole for four years already, but that seems to be where we are.

They probably just woke up one morning recently and realized that their pets weren't going to be eaten by immigrants with or without Trump in office and started having buyers remorse. I mean, he was saying and doing bat shit crazy stuff daily on the campaign trail...

This is all only relevant if those numbers are among active voters. 36% of eligible voters did not vote in 2024 (and previous elections) and many people see the fool Trump is but don’t do anything about it. The key going forward is engaging (some of) that 36%. That is where the MAGA came from in 2016. Dems need to find and activate their version of MAGA (low propensity voters) from that 36%.

Racism, bigotry, ignorance and greed are the only reasons anyone would vote for Trump. The greedy rich just vote for not getting taxed and don't care about anything else. The others are just scared of losing their white, straight Christian America after a man of color was elected President, the LGBTQ community started getting rights and treated as equals, and DEI became a thing. They either didn't think or just are too ignorant to realize how it would affect them personally, too.

Electing Trump in 2016 was bad enough - there were all kinds of warning signs with people who knew him saying that he was in no way qualified to be POTUS, and anyone who looked at his background and personality and behavior should have known that he wasn't fit for the office. But at least in 2016 his voters could say they didn't know what he would do as POTUS and they were sick of the Clintons and the "same old same old" and were willing to take a risk (a big one) on something totally different. The reasoning sucks and I'm not excusing his voters that year, but at least there was something there.

But to vote for him again in 2020 and 2024 just defies any semblance of reason or decency or reality. People who supported him in 2020 and 2024 were willfully overlooking his actual terrible record on covid and a host of other issues and his chaotic, crude, and destructive policies. Having willful amnesia and wearing rose-colored glasses towards your leader is one of the hallmarks of a cult, which is what Republicans are now. They're not a political party, they're a cult of personality with an adored leader who in their minds can do no wrong and who must be supported and defended at all costs.
