WOW. Trump's approval rating is now 36%. And I don't remember ever seeing him underwater with white people.

A possibility…consider that those people surveyed who say they are GOP could be a much smaller number, so mathematically it could (& probably is) a much smaller number of people. Think of it like this, for ex… 89% of 100 people = 89 while 89% of 1000 = 890.We don’t know actual numbers of people.

Yeah most of the replies on the conservative subreddit after each new scandal basically say "this was a stupid thing to do, but I still fully support him" or "we should wait and see if his bet pays off" etc. The only Trump policies they actually support though are the ones targeting minorities.

Yes, I've seen that in other polls. I know on some topics, he polls as poorly as 68% of Republicans approving. I know Sarah Longwell said back in February, when he gets below the "low 80s" on a topic...he's toast.

Right, so they'd still vote for him above any D or potentially R candidate, but not so much for the members in congress that support his stupid policies?

I’m not sure but I’m thinking that there might be some wiggle room for D’s regarding how he’s handling deportations vs immigration & the border as a whole. People don’t like that their working class neighbors or people w/whom they are familiar have been manhandled by ICE vs “closing” the border.

old people, especially old white people, are the bane of the world. I really loathe how bad my generation is. how could a generation growing up with Springsteen be so racist, vile, and ignorant I don't understand.

Oligarchs and elected Republicans will stick with him until he is no longer of use to them. That day is approaching. More slowly than any of us would like, but it will happen. He can't help himself.

They can gaslight their base about a lot of things but pretending their grocery bills and medical bills haven’t gone up while a majority of Americans live paycheck to paycheck? And they ran on bringing down these costs on day 1? The fact the GOP is a cult is evident, but that’s all they’ve got now

We can be manipulated into voting against our interests as well. But even among potential Reform voters - our populist right party and political home for hard brexiters (polling at 25% currently) - his net favourability ratings are 31% favourable, 66% unfavourable (YouGov August '25).

Well this white female baby boomer has never approved of trump. The first time I heard his name was in the 70’s when he was investigated for a number of crimes and convicted of criminal racial discrimination.

Uhm, no. That's not a progression graphic. The numbers are the Approve/Disapprove. Thus, 8% of GOP disapprove of the orange child molester while 89% approve.

White men and the women who benefit from being in their proximity. I mean this whole regime is catering to them, provided of course they have money, so why would they turn their backs to him. Cruelty to others is just reinforcement that they are special. May they all die from Alzheimer’s like Trump

The only thing I can think of is this: women see him as what we always have had to fear - a man in a position of power who feels entitled to our bodies & to control all our thoughts while some men see that and think yeah, that's what I want, that's how it should be. Obvs. not all men, but plenty

In a sane world that Rob Reiner post alone would have put his approval rating in low single figures. And that’s just the tip of the mountain of shit. Good that the approval rating is going down but it’s hard to celebrate that more than 1 in 3 people in the US apparently approve of that monster.

Don't be so quick to say that. The rigid fixed structure of the elections laid out in the Constitution is one of the greatest protections America has. While true that we can't have snap elections, it's provides for guaranteed elections on a regular basis.

Other Dec polls: Emerson College - 41% approve Reuters/Ipsos - 39% approve AP/NORC - 36% approve The conservative Trump-friendly InsiderAdvantage had Trump close to 50% approve, which of course is the only poll Newsweek cited.

Nixon was at 24% just before he resigned . . . yet in retrospect his approval rating rose to 38% (d/t achievements in office not related to Watergate). We had a lot lower tolerance for fuckery in 1974. Be prepared (if you live long enough) to see academics proposing that some of what 🍊💩 did was 👍

these are likley mostly Ted Cruz type Hispanics, they are white but identify as Hispanic. they are deeply racist against brown Hispanics. then you have 10% or so who are low to no info people who recognize the name but don't know anything beyond that.

There is a persistent male-dominated worldview among the remaining Boomers and Gen Jones Latino men. Then there is the burgeoning red-pill, alt-right for second and third gen Latino men. Don't expect these numbers to shift leftward anytime soon. The Boomers will be replaced almost to a man.

As a non-white person—and I think DJT & I would finally be in agreement—we don’t matter. Only white people. My ancestors will kill me 4 saying this but, in this, only white people matter. (I don’t mean that like it sounds, Big Moma. Don’t rise up from the grave!) Whites + men need to hate him more.

89% of self identified republicans approve of trump's job performance, but he's underwater on every other demographic including people over age 55 (-10%). That's a lot of republicans hiding in the demographic margins.

To find optimism about Trump's polling with US Whites, look a little deeper: Statistically, middle aged White men without a college education are huge supporters of Trump, but it pretty much ends there. Less than half of White women support Trump! Few younger White men or women support Trump!

The poll reveals another example of how dumb Dems are. Huge anti Trump sentiment among Zillennials. But, they don’t vote. Dems should be shitcanning their older leaders and put qualified young ppl in leadership positions. Eg Jon Ossoff should be Deputy Leader in Senate. (Can’t be leader bcz he’s

GOP is solidified around Trump. To them, it doesn't matter what he does, even if it's criminal. They, by enlarge, will support him and justify his deeds. It's a cult. The saddest thing I've ever seen in my life. But every little defection from the cult helps because it breaks the spell.

He's been underwater with white women a lot But he had a 20pt margin or more with white men for the last 10yrs straight that skewed the results In fact, across every race, nationality, religion, income, etc men have favored him by significant margins NOW can we finally address toxic masculinity?

Still can’t believe he has 36% approval rating when it should be 0. 36% approve child sex traffickers & rapists, stealing money from them, taking away their benefits, murder etc…unbelievable.

Unfortunately, voters typically have very short memories. We that watch and keep track of the horrors of this administration need to keep reminding our fellow citizens how bad this all is. The goal being an avalanche of turnout for the midterms.

It's about freaking time. It is a good thing but it's telling about their ethics and moral code that it's taken this long and this much suffering at the hands of trump to get there.

Maybe JD was correct after all about no longer having to apologize for being white. 😉 Though that margin is still embarrassingly slim, so nearly half should still apologize for being whatever combo of stupid/ignorant/gullible/racist/misogynist/greedy.
