They did well in special elections leading up to their big loss in the 2024 election. They have higher propensity voters and voters who are more likely to respond to these polls. They could do well in the midterms if it is a low turn out election. It’s too early to say, but they can probably retake the House. I don’t see them being able to win enough seats to take back the Senate. |
AP-Norc poll is first major poll with Trump's job approval in the 30s, 39%-59% (-20).

Trump’s overall approval rating is lower than it was only two months ago. The poll shows that 39 percent of adult Americans approve of the way Trump is handling his job, compared with 55 percent who disapprove, including 44 percent who disapprove strongly. In February, those numbers were 45 percent positive and 53 percent negative. |
Trump doesn’t care about poll numbers. He also doesn’t care about Republicans. He’s reshaped SCOTUS for generations and he thinks he can reshape the bureaucracy in DC. While people get giddy about his numbers he’s working at a blistering pace to beat the midterm clock. |
If he doesn't care about numbers why does he keep flip flopping about tariffs? |
Because he cares about the market. |
If he cared about the markets, he would have left Biden's economy alone. |
If he cares about the market it sure doesn't show - he's continung to tank the market. It's clear: he is incompetent and doesn't know what he's doing and if he cares at all, he needs to start bringing in actual experts instead of incompetent loyalists and yes-men, and to put his own dumb ideas and opinions on the back burner. |

Polls show voters are increasingly fed up with Trump's major policy initiatives. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/04/27/trump-poll-approval-rating-100-days/ |
thanks, voters!! we are in this mess because of you. |
It’s amazing to me that anyone thought the post-election results of this presidency would be different. |
Being a dictator and intentionally tanking the global market turned out to be unpopular. Who knew? |
Goes to show that a disturbingly large percentage of Americans are not well informed and have to learn things the hard way. |
Historically low. I cannot wait to hear how Kewpie doll Karoline spins this?
