Trump started his 2nd term with higher approval ratings than he had any point in his 1st term and now he has already reached the level of unpopularity that doomed him and the GOP throughout his 1st term and doomed Biden and the Dems in 2024.
It's unlikely this Trump leopard will be changing his spots and magically becoming a more popular president from this point forward. This is why we're already seeing some GOP politicians attempt to separate themselves from Trump. The sooner they do, the better chance they'll have of keeping their heads above water when the ship goes down. Vance, Rubio and other members of Trump's staff will suffer the same political career ending fate as Harris and Pence did.

Enten told anchor John Berman that the shift marks one of the clearest areas of improvement for Trump since returning to office.
“This is one of the areas in which Donald Trump is performing significantly better than he was in term one,” Enten said, noting that Trump’s approval on foreign policy has jumped from 35% in his first term to 43% now.
“Up like a rocket,” he added, calling it a “double digit rise” in net approval.
“Normally when we look at these data points, we see that Trump is doing worse than other presidents. But on this one, he is doing significantly better,” he said.
Flashing a graphic on screen showing past presidents, Enten revealed former President George W. Bush stood at 36% and former President Barack Obama scored 37% at this stage of their second terms, leaving Trump “the pack” leader among 21st-century two-term presidents.

First of all, I’m not going to tell the American people how to feel because I think Joe Biden made that mistake of saying hey, you know, it’s transitory, you’re not feeling it. But it has only been nine months. The Big Beautiful Bill has not — it was passed, but it’s not been implemented just yet. There’s still some time for that is he giving people — and then when it comes to some of the energy policy, not all of that has been implemented just yet. So I’m not saying, hold on a little bit, but I am saying, it’s kind of unfair, when someone has been there for nine months, to put it all on them.

we're right back where we were in 2020 and 2024 as far as abysmal POTUS job approval ratings are concerned. Nothing new to see here.Anonymous wrote:I can't believe 38 percent if Americans approve of Trump.
