Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

So nothing’s changed. Still 1/3 of the country accepts this man’s lies eagerly
The absolute floor is maybe, maybe 22%. That's the cult that will always follow him.
And what's sitting on the edge right now
I would guess the polls are written with some bias in questioning and we hit an absolute low in polling of just under 30% if we have direct air "support" in Venezuela. If he dares to actually put boots on the ground there officially then no poll phrasing can keep him above 25%.
Another drop would be a public support of Israel (apart from maybe with Iran as that's for some reason ok with Americans). But any large news story of Israel acting hostile to its neighbors enough that even the New York Times has to report it, well, shits quiet in Israel for a reason right now. Trump doesn't want to lose more favor with the MTG portion of his party that are on the right side of history for all the wrong reasons.
Edit: not to say Israel isn't continuing genocide and settlement expansion. It is. But it's being careful to not hit the point that liberal media would be forced to report it. The recent execution video in the west bank was apparently not enough for the western media to care.
The clown still having a ~39% approval rating is absolutely insane
So many European elected politicians would love to have such a high rating... I'm always surprised at the high numbers in the US.
The US has the best propaganda and dumbest people.
Having fewer parties is a big boost. So is the propoganda apparatus the right has.
That's probably about right - Nixon left office in utter disgrace, according to the general mainstream narrative. However, nearly 1 in 4 Americans still approved of him at that point (24%). And that's when the media was thought to be "liberal", LOL.
These days the media is even LESS "liberal" than it was back then due to the blatant disinformation campaign launched in the wake of Watergate: Faux, hate radio, Breitbart, and the brosphere on podcasts and Youtube, not to mention the amount of delusional copium that is permitted on social media platforms like Xitter and FBIBook, etc....so I'd be genuinely surprised if Taco's numbers went below 24%.
I don’t believe it. There’s no real polling data that’s been released that substantiates any of this.
You may need to check your math there. It's less than 1/4 based on this article. The missing quarter shouldn't be omitted, these are apathetic people that have no opinion, which means they don't believe Trump.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
