Him and 500 law firms filed an amicus brief stating that the courts and the rule of law need to stand up to this out of control executive branch.

Now it's up to the courts to decide if the law bends the knee.

I don't know how, but on any of these polls you have people respond they either are unsure/undecided/need more information. Low information voters unfortunately can make or break a close election.

Of course a great way to counter a bad poll is to try and NOT suck, but Trump has always used the legal system to try and get what he wants. Also the irony of all his gusto about election interference is that he lost an election interference case (where he did the interference), but then was allowed to run the clock out before he was sentenced.

It's always projection!

So looking over these numbers I have many questions, and I wish they had a breakdown of what people sell reported as instead of just the overall number of people surveyed, because I think was a good number of people trying to skew things (I hope at least - or else I really don't understand).

Like comparing the 2 charts below for example:

collapsed inline media

• 11% of Dems found Trump favorable
• 9% of Dems found JD favorable (ouch for JD "couch fucker" Vance being 2 points behind a guy that is a convicted rapist and felon, and currently running the country into the ground)
• 17% of Dems found RFK Jr. favorable (the guy pushing for sick kids and hurting anyone requiring anything in the proximity of mental health)

collapsed inline media

• So overall in the 1st chart 18% think Trump is doing great, but then somehow 39% have a favorable opinion of him?
• And overall in the 1st chart 39% think Trump is doing a horrible job, but 57% have an unfavorable opinion of him overall.

So despite 39% of those surveyed thinking Trump is great, only 18% of them think he is doing great. While 57% of people surveyed think unfavorable of Trump, while only 39% think he is doing a horrible job.

The question cropped out of the image above:

Question: So far, in his second term, do you think Donald Trump has been a great, good, average, poor, or terrible president?

Source: AP-NORC poll conducted April 17-21, 2025, with 1,260 adults age 18 and older nationwide.

From the bottom of the survey: The nationwide poll was conducted April 17-21, 2025 using the AmeriSpeak® Panel, the probability-based panel of NORC at the University of Chicago. Online and telephone interviews using landlines and cell phones were conducted with 1,260 adults. The overall margin of sampling error is +/- 3.9 percentage points.

Was this written by AI?

Forty-two percent of Independents say Trump has the wrong priorities, 30 percent say an even mix, 9 percent believe he has the wrong priorities and 19 percent don’t know.

This sounds like they are going to deliver a truck that everyone is going to want/need to upgrade at least something, and are depending on this post-production upsell to keep things going. Reminds me of the Apple tax of only bare minimum RAM and you can pay a premium to upgrade it to something usable. And for Slate this fits well with the "customer can service/upgrade everything outside of battery stuff" as this lowers their overhead, and then are making a deal with a chain to do the servicing as the only alternative (and depending on which chain that is, and if the one near you is run well, could make this wildly different experience).

The article says they will have a 240 mile battery upgrade available at some point, that can be done at some yet undisclosed service center (article assumes a car service chain).

For everyone that is not a white Christian heterosexual man, absolutely. They want Gilead from The Handmaid's Tale, which is the Project 2025 end goal.

Can we just stop pretending that this is even remotely an issue. The Right wants us all to debate this topic and keep it constantly in the news not because they actually think it's an issue either, but because it's yet another law they can in bad faith exploit to divide, confuse, and disenfranchise people.

We already have laws for this, and they work. End of story.

Codename Shamu, was a fun phone that I abused with so many different ROMs. Was a simpler time ...

No logic needs to be involved when the only goal is to ruin the lives of marginalized people.

The title should be "Trump took in $240 million in bribes under the guise of being for his inauguration".
