Ok, and that means what?
He’s so slammed now.
ooh chuck schumer is gonna write an even harsher letter to the white house. this time he might not doodle hearts in the margins
He raped kids. How can anyone still support him? At what point do people see that they voted for:
- A serial rapist
- A child rapist
- A convicted felon
- A narcissist
- A lier
- A cheater
- Thief and someone that doesn’t pay hardworking people
- … I mean the list is longer but still
- A bad business man (casino’s make money, right?)
He is actively ruining America. But if you are all for it. What the damn hell.
“But they said our taxes will be lower so he’s a good guy in my book” /s
He still has a thing called “approval rating” he is still preaident, he’s still alive. So it’s just nonsense
President Donald Trump’s approval rating has fallen to just 40 percent, the lowest since his return to the White House,
Quotes like this just piss me off, call me when he drops below 33% which is his historical ledge that he doesn’t seem to go under, until it hits that, he’ll be fine.
40% of the country supports their childfucker-in-chief
83% of Republicans approve of this Epstein sex trafficker in chief
I want to meet the 3% of Democrats who continue supporting the fucker.
It’s 1.5 million John Fetterman’s.
Chuck Schumer can hardly wait to send more sternly-worded questions in a letter!
Democrats are a bunch of pussies. We need more outspoken like jasmine Crockett
I want a president who is just as cruel as Trump but towards republicans and their voters. I want to see them belittled and insulted and mocked constantly on the national stage for the next 10-15 years to balance the scales. I want to see the president lie constantly about their mandatory reform plans for the red states and troll/distract them with extreme executive overreach on inconsequential issues that piss off the MAGAts most with a “What are you gonna do about it, pussy?” attitude or just say it out loud at the podium to rile them up. I want them to keep the current level of ICE funding and dedicate all of it to hunting down radical right wing hate groups and sending THEM to El Salvador, then disband it when the mission is done. I want them to sign executive orders and implement policies that takes every single one of the right wing media’s insane talking points and dials it up to 11. Every time the right squeals move further to the left until they piss themselves. Force redistricting in every red state in a way that unfairly favors democrats. Pass federal voter suppression laws that make it easier for the originally targeted demographics to vote while disenfranchising rural whites. Go after churches that get political, ban them from funding candidates and revoke their tax-exempt status, capping it off with an “Inshallah” post on Xitter. Allow Blue States to opt out of their federal taxpayer funds being sent to red states as long as they continue to be shitbags and make it an official policy in those exact words. Pack the supreme court and fuck shit up on OUR behalf. I want the next Dem president to show some fucking teeth and fight dirty.
Basically I want a president whose platform is “Sit down, shut the fuck up, get with the program and also fuck you”.
That’d require a media mogul (like Fox) batting for us. None do.
Don’t take this the wrong way, but, is there evidence that he had inappropriate relations with a minor?
I’m not trying to defend the guy at all, I’m genuinely curious what I may have missed. I tend to skip over most of the Trump coverage in the media… I’ve seen enough of that Tropicana shithead.
I know there was some pretty strong correlations with Epstein that was brought to light recently, and I think someone testified that he was present at events that included under aged persons, but I have yet to see him accused of any specific activity. He was just… There.
I mean, I don’t need any evidence to dislike the guy, but if I am to take up a defensible position against those that are still deluded enough to support the commander and cheeto, I would like to be working from a solid source.
Thanks in advance. <3
On October 25, 2016, allegations were made by two men stating that Trump had attended and partaken in sex parties filled with underage minor females as young as 15 years old who were induced with promises of career advancement.[174] Illegal drugs were also alleged to have been provided to the minors.[175]
There’s another story about Epstein poaching an underage massage parlor worker from chump that pissed him off. Haven’t looked for a source.
Looks like the party line will eventually be that girls that have gone through puberty are really women and that makes it okay. It’s pretty disgusting, I’m waiting for them to start making a distinction between pedophilla and hebephillia.
Like a technical distinction where Fox News brings on a tame doctor that explains that it’s normal for older men to fuck/rape 14-15 year old girls.
Thank you very much. This is the first I’ve heard that his attendance was to a sex party for underaged persons, and that he partook in the event. Even if it’s “just” an allegation.
Hebephilia is a new term for me as well; my immediate opinion is that anyone bothering to make the distinction between paedophilia and hebephilia, is already problematic and likely either trying to justify paedophilia, or differentiate some action to distance it from paedophilia, despite it meeting all of the criteria for paedophilia.
I can sort of understand attraction to persons who have completed their physical development (post-pubescent) who may not be legally an adult yet… Not that I would agree or even condone anything of that nature, but hebephilia, for anyone who doesn’t know, is attraction to those in the early stages of puberty. Regardless of what it’s called, you’re a fully grown adult and should have enough self discipline to refrain from pursuing any inappropriate and/or illegal intimate relations. Grow up, be the adult you are.
Yeah, it’s disgusting. What’s arguably worse is that all this has been known for like a decade. There’s all kinds of sound and fury about it now. I figure it’s media manipulation by the really rich fucks as warning shot across chump’s bow to tell him to quit fucking up the economy and stay in his lane. Soon this fury will decline, even here on Lemmy, and he’ll go back to fucking kids or putting them in concentration camps or whatever as long as he quits fucking around with tariffs and global trade.
Exactly. I worded my statement quite deliberately, that these things have been brought to light. The information was there, we’re just putting it in the lime light now…
Regardless, the depressing part is that you’re probably correct with why all of this is being brought up… There seems to be a power struggle of massive proportions going on and all of us “little people” are caught in the middle.
It will stay that way unless someone else follows in Luigi’s footsteps, or one of the powerful people in this pissing contest backs down.
Dear Daily Beast:
Please pause all Trump Approval Rating articles until his approval hits Ceaucescu levels.
Then, by all means, loop me in! Live coverage would be best.
Sincerely, Every person who didn’t vote for Trump
There is a very serious rot in the USA. It’s the kind of rot that says empathy is a sin and that kindness is weakness. It’s the kind of rot that says hate and bigotry are good, and kindness and acceptance are what’s wrong with society. That America is best when it is what Liberals say is worst. And don’t delude yourself. The rot is much higher than the 40% cited in this poll, for 100% of the Republicans and a decent chunk of independents would vote for the shitgibbon over anything on the Left because they’ve drank the koolaid from Team Red about Team Blue. And if that’s not bad enough, enough Team Blue has drunk the Russian koolaid and will stay home or vote third party to enable Team Red to steal things and break shit.
They’d rather a ‘childfucker-in-chief’ to borrow Steve’s line than have a Dem in charge. Both groups.

It’s really just old fashioned decadence and depravity fueled by wealth inequality. Billionaire elites spend billions on GOP propaganda network to con people into unintentially giving them gigantic GOP tax cuts.
I’d never vote for any republican for any reason. But I’d also never vote for anyone who enables war crimes. So I left my vote for president blank when I filled out the rest of the ballot. And then my state went for Harris anyway. But I hear I am the worst person in the rworld and this whole thing is because of me.
Its all a big joke.
I had voted straight blue my whole life and thats over. For me and a lot of people I think. THAT is a lasting problem. The base just isnt solid anymore. Too much taking it for granted. Any “big tent” big enough to maximize vacuuming up every possible donor’s check is going to end up being too constrained and untrusted to effect any change at all-- because we cant piss off any future segment of donors. And so we all end up aiding war crimes. The tent is so big and donor centric that it’s unable to serve its constituents.
That’s supposed to be what the primaries are for
I disagree with your stance on the presidential ballot but I respect your position. You aren’t any more responsible for Trump’s actions than I would be for Kamala’s. There was no one on the ballot (who could win) who was going to do anything about Gaza. For me that meant moving on to other issues. Nothing I did in that voting booth would do Palestinians any immediate good, but there were other differences between the candidates and I cast my vote on the basis of things I could affect.
But at the end of the day you and I want the same things. Why fight you when the real enemies are so clear? Even if you don’t vote for the President, you’re still voting for Congress and the Senate and that is crucial, too. Truth is Trump wouldn’t be a problem if he didn’t control the whole shebang. Mate, I appreciate everyone who filled out a ballot to make themselves heard.
as if it matters
That’s still shockingly high…
i thought it was in the twenties already. what the fuck is wrong with that dumbass country
This was my reaction.
When I first saw the title, I was thinking, “it can get lower?” Then I saw the numbers and I’m shocked, shocked!
… Well, not that shocked.
40% of Americans still support him
A month ago it was 45%
I hope this means anything good
But if 31.8% (49.8% of 63.9%) of the country voted for him, and that was enough for the Fanta Menace to get in, 40% is sadly an improvement.
Shame on the 36.1% of those who don’t care enough about their country to have bothered voting.
Hopefully the Trump government will be the kick in the face Murica needs to wake up.
Spoiler: it wont
The only approval rating that matter are the House and Senate. Otherwise, he remains president.
The only approval rating that matter are the House and Senate.
This is a good time to point out that the 2 seat GOP majority in the House was stolen. 16 GOP seats are from gerrymandering. An actually representative congress would have a 14 seat Dem majority.
https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/how-gerrymandering-tilts-2024-race-house
And Texas is going to increase the 16 stolen gerrymandring seats to 21 stolen GOP seats because they don’t think that 16 stolen seats will be enough in the next election.

Until he is hanging around a gas station, I assume that approval rating means nothing.
Until it is at 0 it’s still too high.
I need it to somehow be in the negatives
Not clicking on yet another clickbait “feel-good” article, but what is it this time-41%? Because every “New Low!!!1!” reported on is always in the low to mid 40’s. Always.
These articles are purely to make the left feel a little better, which makes Democratic politicians think they can just wait a little bit longer, thinking “maybe this whole Trump thing will work itself out without me risking my position.” (I’m looking at you, Schumer.)
But it’s always going to be 40%, because as Trump does worse and worse things, the public gets more and more used to it, and his fascist corruption feels normal and comfortable. So it’s precisely because Democratic politicians don’t put up a real fight to maintain the standards and institutions Trump and the GOP are obliterating that approval never drops much below 40%. Because without Democrats enforcing standards, they will just keep falling.
And I just saw somewhere else his disapproval rating was 55% and then Fox is claiming the GOP is doing so well it’s a miracle. They can’t keep their lies straight.
40% now, but that doesn’t actually mean anything.
I’m a Republican and why would I NOT like the Man who Raped Children with Jeffrey Epstein and ELIMINATED my Healthcare? That’s just GOOD Policy! Now EXCUSE me I have a DRAG SHOW to bring a GUN to to Save The Children!
Just like Jesus would want!
Every time I see a new headline about is approval rating its the same headline yet some how he is still in office. It seems almost as if the U.S isn’t actually a democracy after all.
Because the US system is that there is an election every four years and only every four years even if the leader does a horrendous job. In Canada, if enough people are unhappy with the government, we have processes for calling an early election
Trump has openly said he plans on there being no more elections.
And he made it happen (with Thiel & Musk and other billionaires) this last “election”
Wish the prior people in power had used their info on vote tampering & stopped it.
What he plans and what takes place ain’t never been exactly similar.
I am envying that.
The US was never a true democracy.
Try To avoid the no true Scottsman fallacy throughout life. That’s just bad debating
“True” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. A democratic republic is a form of democracy.
