A new poll shows that about 4 in 10 Americans say Trump has been a “terrible” leader in his second term.
The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research also found that about 2 in 10 think he has done an average job in his presidency and 3 in 10 says he’s been a great or good president.
44% say Trump’s focused on the wrong priorities in the AP-NORC poll, 21% said an even mix and 10% don’t know
“He’s really doing the stuff that he said he was going to do,” Tanner Bergstrom, a 29 year old Republican from Minnesota, told the Associated Press. He added that Trump is “not making a bunch of promises and getting into office and nothing happens. … I really like that. Even if it’s some stuff I don’t agree with, it’s still doing what he said he was going to do.”
He’s a Nazi, but at least he’s an honest Nazi.
Honestly, as a sane person yes I do like honest Nazis more than lying Nazis. But do you know what I like more than honest Nazis? People who aren’t a Nazi, I like those way the fuck more than honest Nazis which apparently puts us in the minority in this shit hole of a county
He’s only doing the actions he promised, but not achieving the outcomes he promised; actions are easy, outcomes are hard. He said he’d tariff everyone and he did, but he also said the cost of living would go down and it actually went up. He said he’d mass deport immigrants and he did, but he also said dependence on social programs would decrease and it actually increased.
Trump/Republicans deliver on actions, Democrats deliver on outcomes. Because the outcomes depend on reality, the actions promised by Democrats are a lot less sexy and exciting.
I agree with your take, but I’d like to add some context to it.
Dems constantly go on about the things they want to fix. Public Healthcare. Free College. Money out of politics. Clean air. Clean Water. Etc. But for all the promises they make, we got a Republican healthcare plan that didn’t even include a Public Option, college is more expensive than ever, money is rampant in politics, and all of this with a dose of increased cost of living from housing through food.
I can see grousing that “Yeah, I don’t like what the Shitgibbon is doing, but at least he’s doing what he promised to do!” I think Dems need to take notice here, but the question is: What will they do when the moneyed class starts yanking their chains? Because I am sure the moneyed class is perfectly happy with a fascist takeover of the USA.
It’s really easy to make changes if you don’t care about whether those changes are positive or legal; you can tariff every other country and deport everyone who looks ethnic, but that isn’t actually benefiting the US. Democrats don’t make those kinds of promises because their goal is to improve the US. So… Yeah, Democrats could do the kinds of stuff Trump is doing, but most Liberals wouldn’t want that.
You completely missed the point, like the other commentor who dropped a similar load of excrement on my comment did. Let me spell it out for you. Don’t promise the sun, moon, and stars, when your plan is to put my face in the dirt for the corpos who actually pay your bills. Dem voters get tired of that shit.
I think Dems need to take notice here,
Just ignore the constituition and the rule of law and get shit done ?
