    Article says Trump believes he has a 99.9% approval rating on the border issues…

    He is delusional

    Anything that Trump doesn’t like is either done by paid protesters or considered political acts.

    But his cultists will accuse anyone else of being brainwashed.

    Trump has said pollsters that have shown his approval ratings sliding in recent weeks should be investigated for “election fraud.”

    He’s going to run for a third term. That’s what this means. Buckle up, y’all. We’re in for yet another Constitutional crisis that the Democrats will do exactly nothing about.

    I’m going to go out on a limb and say that I understand that Trump might be confused about this. He isn’t doing anything that he didn’t specifically say he would do when he was asking for people’s votes. They loved him before the election. They loved voting for him. I can understand why he might not believe that suddenly they don’t like him. Somewhat the same for Musk except he started crashing back with the purchase of Twitter so he should have had time to understand that he was driving his fans away the further right-psycho he got.

      One of the rhetorically effective things about his campaign messaging was how broad and vague it was. Pundits, podcasters, influencers, and those manipulating the algorithms of social media, took that messaging, isolated parts of it and recontextualized those parts for specific audiences.

      So while he may have assumed he was being very clear about what he was going to do, the messaging many of his voters got was totally detached from his intentions.

      A good example of this is people who thought that the tariffs would somehow be a tax levied on foreign countries, not a sales tax on imported goods. Or those who thought the tariffs would be targeted at specific goods categories to benefit their particular industry, not a blanket tariff that impacts their upstream supply chain.

      He told his subordinate on the campaign to get voters to vote for him, he assumed that meant convince them he was right, but that was impossible, the only ones that could get him the numbers he liked were the ones who just twisted what he said till people agreed with it.

      This is what happens when you steal an election

    We’ve got zionists running through the streets of New York assaulting people they perceive to be possibly arab, a mayor who is only there because trump pardoned him for his crimes, and trump, who “demands” the polls show him whatever he wants to see. It just gets crazier, stupider, and more corrupt every day, and we are only 2/48ths of the way to trump being out of office, assuming he leaves peacefully. He needs to be impeached.
