does that mean that his voter approval has fallen to… 40 percent? where it has been for the last ten years of my life?

The only thing that’s upsetting them is the loss of money. If that weren’t happening, they’d be tickled pink by everything else Trump is doing.

I hate these kind of articles.
The polls show a very very consistent trend of Trump being probably around ~5-10% underwater since April with very little change either which way. The reporting swings both positive and negative are nearly 100% time the difference between polls that Trump usually does poorly on e.g (most traditional pollsters) and those he does well on (Harvard/Harris and the more conservative pollsters). Thats why you got constant swings between +3 approval and -15 approval.

I’ve been seeing a real shift in the Midwest’s attitude toward Trump lately. Even though he’s long been a champion for blue-collar and rural voters there, the tariffs and economic struggles have really started to wear on farmers and workers. I still see some support, but it feels like a lot of people are questioning if his America First approach is really benefiting them anymore

Remember this in the midterms, folks.

Yeah yeah. They said the same thing in 2020 and then look what happened in less than 5 years. Wisconsin especially looked to be turning a corner but even very liberal Midwesterners still have this weird superiority complex over “coastal elites” that Republicans know how to easily tap into. This belief that they are the real America only feeds into the white nationalist overtones of the Trump administration so it’s no surprise why both Miller and Vance left California to grow their stature in Ohio and Iowa. It’s no secret that Democrats ignoring/dismissing Arabs in Michigan cost Harris that state.

Fucking Newsweek acting like the 40% approval rating is news once again

Favorability, or lack thereof, means nothing!! These idiots would still vote the Orange Turd because owning libs is more important than income or cost of living. They’ll sacrifice their farms to own the libs.

Oh look, the obligatory once a day, “ they are turning on trump” article that never comes to fruition.

Now they will be REALLY ANGRY each time they vote for him in the future.

They’ll still vote for the candidates with the R next to their name at election time.

They didn’t vote for Joe Biden because he was costing them money and now they get to see how a master empties their wallets.

I’ll believe this after the next election. I’d be willing to bet they still vote for Republicans.

Trump sees himself as America and the voters are merely his livestock. When he says America he means himself and his regime, not us, regardless of which side you vote.

But would still vote for him in a heartbeat.

The Midwest is strange, because they’re obviously Republican, but if Trump went there in 2014 they would all hate him.
They generally dislike anyone not like them, but he’s got the R so they support him.

Bit late. At this point I don’t believe he needs anyone’s approval anymore. He’s not worried about another election.

No it hasn’t.
Until Trump is polling less than 10% his base hasn’t abandoned him.

“Trump has long positioned himself as a champion of blue-collar workers and has frequently touted his record of reviving the region’s industrial economy.”
What the fuck is Martha smoking?
What is his record of reviving … any fucking thing? Besides his own bank account.
The media continues to spout wholesale bullshit for Trump/GOP, while constantly saying it is Democrats that are out of touch with working people and “kitchen table issues.”
Complete bullshit. And it has been for decades. If left to their own devices, GOP would have made this country an oligarchy long ago. Trump has only expedited that goal.

If it’s the opposite, Trump has turned on the Midwest. The promise was to buffer the Midwest economy and bring back factories and farming jobs. The opposite is happening, people are pissed.

I have been seeing articles like this for years. And honestly? It’s a little late. It’s on us in cities to push back on all the violence, because ICE and the national guard aren’t running these bum-ass little towns shooting people, they’re in the cities. We’re all in the same boat economically at this point, but now I’m having to prepare for a military occupation or the FBI showing up at my door.

Every couple hours Newsweek comes out with some new post claiming “devastating” poll numbers where things have shifted MAYBE two percent, or some other story suggesting the end is near for this shit stain.
I’m beginning to think that the only purpose of this account is to post placating bullshit intended to convince the people most primed to become radicalized that their rescue by the country’s compromised institutions is imminent, and there is no need to take immediate action.
