A national Emerson College Polling survey found that only 45% of voters approve of the job Trump is doing as president, while 46% disapprove. Another 9% are neutral or unsure. That marks a steady slide for Trump, who had a 49% approval rating in January and was tied at 45% approval and disapproval just two months ago.

The poll also found that 53% of voters say the country is on the wrong track, while only 48% believe it’s headed in the right direction — a red flag for Trump and the Republican Party heading into next year’s midterms.

      They’re still gonna vote and we can use the pawns to vote for us rather than ignore them. The isle is for the senators.

      I’d argue the majority of his supporters don’t love dictatorships, they’re just too ignorant, and just plain stupid, to recognize one when they see it.

      You’ve got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know… morons.

        BS

        trump was openly saying he is a dictator. once they’re that stupid to ignore that because he also promised to hurt the minorities they hate, then there’s no difference between stupid and evil.

          I think you vastly overestimate the political literacy of the average American. Most of them don’t know any of that, their decisions are based purely on vibes and curated sound bites. Some of them certainly are evil, but I recommend a vigilant application of Hanlon’s Razor when analyzing the general population.

            There’s a lot of them, they’re gullible and we need their votes. We can use them as our pawn to gain votes. Gotta learn how to use the enemy. Right away Straight to anger and hate without seeing the opportunity to sway the pawns.

            if someone stupidity leads to damages, they are liable for those damages.

            same here, people are suffering, and disappeared. there are real damages being done to innocent people.

            that 48% are responsible. their stupidity isn’t a defense, its their confession.

            Fuck em.

            they are scum, and deserve the exact sympathy they showed when they supported this.

              It’s not really 48% tho. Only 30% voted for him. These types of polls are essentially worthless because the sample is voluntary and in all likelihood skewed because only those hardcore people will even do polls. My generation doesn’t even answer a phone call unless we know who it is or are expecting one.
