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. The demons behind Project 2025 that hate democracy and hate the Constitution are trying to get as much rammed through as possible because they know he won’t last forever and the likelihood of finding another stooge that has sway over the stupid people like donvict does is not great.

    Vance? Elon - even if he could run - Vivek? LOL, give me a break, they have zero charisma.

    And these stupid people won’t go back to methadone like Jeb or Romney - they got pure China White as donvict and were mainlining his hatred. I’m not sure if the qons will be able to find another donvict. A whole lot of stupid people saw his dumb game show and really do think he’s a businessman, and that “businessman == good”.

      It’s not even the businessman thing though. That is just a smokescreen for the fact that he is racist. Mark Cuban is objectively a 50x better capitalist businessman than trump ever was. He campaigned for Harris and all of the “strong businessmen best” people completely did a 180.

      It is 100% only hatred and wanting certain people to die and every single other thing they say they care about is a smokescreen as proven by their own actions. Like how now the price of everything suddenly doesn’t matter, because the “right” people are getting hurt.

      Just like how DOGE doesn’t actually go after inefficiencies like the extremely corrupt and inefficient military contractor sector but instead goes for things that hurt black people more like school lunches for 6 year olds.
