Trump Approval Falls to Record Low in Poll Tracker

Nervous Republican candidates in 2028, I shouldn't wonder.

But the Dems not looking too hot at this stage either.

So much gerrymandering that there are very few competitive House or Senate seats. The country is extremely divided. Almost impossible to build consensus on even the most popular issues. The courts have been politicized. What’s not to like about the system?

He will not last his term. Simply cannot. He will be out within 12 months. Resignation, whatever, and given the Nixon treatment.

Trump deeply deserves this record low and it reflects his inability to tackle the issues that mean the most to the American people. Even a lot of his supporters and a lot of people that voted for this creep are now feeling disenchanted as virtually every campaign promise except immigration has been broken, and even his immigration promises have led to huge problems due to the labor shortages that they've created in certain industries. Between his ridiculous tariffs and this incredibly stupid forever war of choice with Iran, dictated to him by Israel, he's driven up the cost of so many products and gasoline, and people are just getting sick of his of this monstrosity of a president.

May Trump fall, and may the fall be incredibly painful and full of humiliation and self-loathing.

See ya Don. The destruction is almost complete.

Well the least you can say that is that this is simply your opinion. Many of us would argue that he is deeply despised throughout the world, and he is despised by the majority of Americans which the recent poll numbers indicate and support. The man is a disaster by almost every metric imaginable.

Don gets an F grade.

Well, Trump loves to boast that he's the best this and the best that in history so he should love being able to boast that he's the best in Presidential history--at being the worst. Let's hope his approval continues to fall. And, as always, I remain astounded that it's not even lower for this corrupt, semi-senile, lying grifter.

Perhaps you can show us the polls where those deciding the outcome have Trump on the positive side. I cannot seem to find any, not even at Fox.

While you're at it, why not show us on what planet the world is "backing Trump".

I saw that a organization run by former NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen polled 94,000 people internationally, and found the view of the US under Trump has tumbled 38 points from what it was under Biden. Only 22% of those polled still have a favorable view of the US, and view the US as the 3rd biggest threat on the planet, just behind Russia and Israel.

Any person with a brain will respond when their approval polls are down. Past Presidents like Truman, Bill and Obama responded with adjusting their policy, personnel changes and shifting their rhetoric. But not this dementia challenged, narcissistic and egotistical old man. He still has his cabinet secretaries that are incompetent, lacking in qualification and bad at decision making. He is now adding 2 more morons to replace the DOJ and DNI. His policies has not change to address voters anxieties and his rhetoric has become more incoherent, rambling, highly polarize and unhinged. He is detached from reality and is a danger to America and the world. Good luck America as Trump will wreck the economy for years to come, damage traditionally alliance, damage America's international reputation and lose the global confidence in US leadership. To those stupid voters, reap what you sow.

There was another poll just recently released by Fox News with similar numbers. Fox is known as a pro-Trump, partisan network. When Fox polls indicate his unpopularity, he’s definitely unpopular.

Trump’s poll ratings are truly under water.

The Strait of Hormuz isn’t open and it doesn’t look like they’re going to be open any time soon. The Strait was open to free navigation before he started this unnecessary war with Iran. He’s gained nothing, he’s made the entire situation much worse.

Another victory for the people and another setback for the goomba. His agenda continues to wane, and he is clearly infuriated at the lack of fealty being expressed. Poor poor Don. Hooray!

The Kennedy Center is beginning the process of removing references to President Donald Trump a week after a federal judge ruled that his name had been illegally added to the performing arts center.

The next day, Trump on social media branded Cooper as “an anti Trump Hater” and predicted that the performing arts center that he wanted to shutter for a two-year overhaul will “soon be closed, probably never to open again.”

Clearly angered by his latest legal setback, he said it was “impossible for me to be treated fairly,” tying Cooper’s ruling to earlier losses, including the Supreme Court’s rejection in February of his sweeping tariffs.

So, is Trump the greatest example of victim consciousness ever expressed? He is a major snowflake, for sure.

All Americans share some systemic blame, regardless of how they individually voted in electing Trump or not, you Yanks are responsible for the state of the worlds economy now

anyone participating in—or opting out of—the American political and cultural landscape shares the collective responsibility for its outcomes. This includes eligible citizens who chose not to vote, thereby altering the election dynamics.

I understand the sentiment but it’s a bit harsh to blame all Americans for this mess. Blame the 1/3rd who reacted to the “but her emails!” nonsense the first time, or the ones who couldn’t bother to vote the second time. Blame the roughly 1/3 who voted for Trump. Blame the ones who are still supporting him today, after all the damage he’s done, all the grifting he’s doing. But please don’t blame the rest of us. The system can’t be turned around in a day but we’re trying everything we can.

Absolute hogwash. So those who voted against the goon are somehow responsible for his election? Huh?

Donald Trump’s presidency did not occur in a vacuum. In a democracy, leadership is not merely the product of those who cast votes for a candidate, but the culmination of societal forces, historical inequities, and collective inaction.

While it is tempting to place blame solely on the individuals who supported Trump at the polls, the reality is far more complicated. By examining voter apathy, entrenched inequities, the modern media landscape, and outdated institutional structures, it becomes evident that each American plays some role in the broader public responsibility for enabling Trump’s rise, and for the subsequent damage wrought by his administration.

At the heart of any democracy lies a social contract. Citizens agree to remain informed, vote, and hold their leaders accountable. In return, they expect fair representation and a government that addresses the public’s needs.

Over the years, that unwritten pact has frayed. Millions of Americans did not vote in the 2016 election. Some absences were due to frustration with the political system, others out of a sense of futility, or more notably the fruition of years of disenfranchisement campaigns designed to keep voters from the polls.

The combination of widespread disengagement and disillusionment created a vacuum that allowed a smaller, more energized faction of the electorate to determine the country’s trajectory. That vacuum was not filled overnight.

Democratic engagement in the United States has been on a downward trend for decades, with midterm elections often drawing only a fraction of eligible voters. Community-level activism waned in many parts of the country, allowing local issues to fester unchecked.

By the time Trump began his campaign, he was able to tap into simmering resentments and cynicism about “the establishment.” For every American who saw through his rhetoric, there may have been a neighbor, coworker, or relative who — facing a lack of consistent information and feeling ignored by mainstream politics — opted to believe his promises.

Even those who recognized Trump’s shortcomings should bear some responsibility if they did not work hard enough to enfranchise the disenfranchised, or work to promote reforms that encourage fairer voting practices.

an awareness of how an entire society can enable such a presidency is essential to preventing its recurrence. Accountability can begin in everyday spaces.

The United States has long prided itself on having a stable democratic system, yet the Electoral College — a structure conceived centuries ago to protect the institution of slavery — allowed Trump to secure the presidency even though he lost the national popular vote.

Defenders of the system argue that it prevents less populous states from being overlooked, but critics contend it has become an outdated mechanism that fails to accurately represent the will of the people. The system allows for a minority of the population to have a disproportionate amount of power, upending the foundation of “majority” rule.

Fixing a problem requires identifying the problem, and Americans have shown their preference for putting bandaids on systemic wounds. Until Americans are willing to confront the darker truths about themselves and their institutions, progress will remain an illusion, and the cycle of harm will continue unchecked.

Voting is a collective action and when individual is willing to go along with voting for Trump and that these 73 million Americans know full well that Trump is a racist, misogynist and endorsement of white supremacy among other character flaws, all those individuals take the blame.

That’s impressive to be regarded as a bigger danger to the world than China. I suspect he won’t be happy with only being 3rd though and will pull out all the stops to make number one. He did mention Greenland again this week.

1. I wonder if you are an American and if so, what have you done to improve the system? If not, what country are you from and how’s that political system working out? Don’t take this the wrong way. I’m just saying all political systems have their faults. Some more than others. (ie BREXIT - I still can’t figure out how that happened.)

2. I think your comments are true but a bit impractical or idealistic. You bring up some very good points but offer no solution, not even a first step. Generalities.

God NO !! Would Not want to be a yank ! why should i help you Yanks !!are you not big boys !! Yes all political systems have there faults not disputing that, the America system of the Electoral College was established in 1787, has America not change since then!! it is a very archaic system and needs to be changed,

Americans have shown their preference for putting band-aids on systemic wounds. Until Americans are willing to confront the darker truths about themselves and their institutions, progress will remain an illusion, and the cycle of harm will continue unchecked.

A coup d’etat. i would not rule this out !!

Proper perspective needed, The 73% was from Israel right-wing/ coalition voters and 49% is a minority who view him as the best US President in history. By the way, only 34% left-wing hold a positive view of Trump.

Let me guess... Are they the same pollsters that predicted a Biden Harris win? Right up to the end?
