For a fascist disapproval of a slim majority definitely isn't "underwater" just a "minor inconvenience".

‘He’s underwater on everything:’ Fox News host breaks down Trump approval polling
(www.independent.co.uk)
declining approval ratings, citing a new Quinnipiac poll showing 53% of voters disapprove of his second-term performance
Another Quinnipiac poll from last month determined 45 percent approved of Trump’s performance and 49 percent disapproved.
So half of the people still approve of what he's doing? How does such a small percentage even justify a news article with such a ridiculous headline? The US are so cooked it's not even funny. Wake me when it's at 90% disapproval.
What stands out to me is that they are making a big deal out if a small change...to a Republican approval rating. This is exactly the type of data they'd be holding up while screaming about how bad Obama is, for instance. Did feel odd using the tactic against their own, let alone god emperor Cheeto.
They're probably trying to take control of the party back from Trump. They did push back against him during his first term, but fell flat on their faces and started losing viewers to Newsmax. Now they're trying to back it with data. They've spent the last few decades training their viewers to ignore data, though, so we'll see how that goes.

How long before Trump wants her fired?
Hell must be freezing right now with FoxNews even calling out Trump. With tumbling stock market, I did not think that "voting with your wallet" actually works.
I am more curious as to what will Democrats do next in light of Trump admin's first hundred and more gaffes. Will the Democrats learn from their mistakes and reform? Or will they exploit Trump's gaffes like during Covid, but learn nothing and the Republicans will field someone worse for the next election (assuming there will be a next election)? Or, at worse, will Democrats continue to enable Trump like they are now with Chuck Schumer?
Well, a month ago a majority still approved... so I guess it's a tiny minuscule progress? One eaten face at a time?
I wonder why he is doing just like he said he would.
