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
6 out of ten said what? This is fine…?
2 in 10: Average 3 in 10: Great
If you all could just try to not take the rest of the planet with you, that’ll be great.
You really got to wonder what that 2 in 10 thinks about the history of presidents of this country. I mean there’s been some stinkers but Jesus.
Fucking politicians. All the same ain’t they.
Edit: …is what they are thinking.

It’s honestly weird to see people hyperventilating over Trump when I’ve lived through the Bush post-9/11 War on Terror and the Reagan Era War on Crime.
Both had wildly unconstitutional surveillance and arrests, extra-judicial black sites and torture prisons, partisan purges of agencies, corporate multinationals capturing government agencies, and all sorts of naked corruption.
Trumpism isn’t new, it’s just poorly marketed. The biggest difference between Trump and his predecessors is that the media clapped like seals when prior admins were committing these atrocities.
As of 2022 only 38% of the population keep up with current events
It’s a bullshit poll. 10% selected “I don’t know.”
The AP-NORC poll surveyed 1,260 adults from April 17- April 21, using a probability-based method from AmeriSpeak. The margin of sampling error for the poll is plus or minus 3.9 percentage points.
He’s underwater at 54.6% unfavorable on YouGov as of five days ago.

He’s 59% unfavorable on Pew Research Center as of three days ago.
They’re the lowest in presidential history 70 years. Don’t forget, they’re not exclusively asking informed people.
The 52% AP-NORC result has a margin of error of 3.9%. That puts the 54.6% YouGov poll squarely within it. Pew Research was April 7-14 and doesn’t have a margin on its first page, so I didn’t look further.
Not sure why you don’t think the YouGov poll is also bullshit since it is lower than Pew.
Only 4-in-10? That’s disappointing
4 in 10? Are these polls conducted in Mobile, Alabama?
They’re conducted by calling people who answer the phone when an unknown number calls. So boomers.
How THE FUCK is it only 4 in 10?! Have they been bound, gagged, and held away from any goddamn newssource? This incontinent incompetent asshole is qualified to sit in a fucking jail cell, that’s it. God this country is stupid…

No, but there are millions who basically do not consume news outside of social media. And as you see on social media, people constantly complain about having to see “politics” and many try to block anything regarding that.
Alternate title - 6 in 10 Americans don’t think Trump is a terrible president.
Like it or not (I don’t) the horrific immigration policies get a lot of support. Other countries are taking notice too.
Germany is considering removing German citizenship to dual passport holders if they are deemed “extremists” (but with no clear definition of what that means and how it would be determined).
Since before Trump 2, Italy has already had its own camp in Albania for immigrants and it’s share of friction with judges who said these deportations were illegal.
Also “let Russia have Ukraine, why do we care” has enjoyed the sort of support people are ashamed to admit but that translates to votes to all the worst politicians.
the horrific immigration policies get a lot of support.
Which just demonstrates the stupidity in this country. If this shit was happening while a Democrat president was in office, they’d be on the White House lawn with guns and nooses. The same exact people.
A lot of the same stuff was happening under the last two D administrations. 3 year olds representing themselves in courts is not a new thing, and most of the detention camps aren’t new. Targeting citizens and deporting to a foreign concentration camp is really the only new part.
Calling hIm “terrible,” undersells it. He is, by all objective measure, the most prolific traitor in American history, literally worse than all other American traitors COMBINED.
He was already firmly established by historians as the worst president in American history following his first term, despite historians usually wishing to wait a decade before making their assessment. He was such a terrible president in his first term, that they didnt have to wait for his legacy to settle. Now he is only digging the hole of his legacy even deeper.
