Americans, including Republicans, losing faith in Trump, new polls reveal

Playing exclusively to the base he created isn't going well, but this is scarcely news. Just bringing people back from El Salvador would have, to my mind, pulled him from being underwater on immigration. Wouldn't fix the economy, but how many fucking hills do you want to die on? 18? This isn't a golf course.

The issue is things have to get so bad that 67 senators are willing to give him the boot while under his boot.

Americans, including some Republicans, are losing faith in Donald Trump across a range of key issues, according to polling released this week. One survey found a majority describing the president’s second stint in the White House so far as “scary”.

Along with poor ratings on the economy and Trump’s immigration policy, a survey released on Saturday found that only 24% of Americans believe Trump has focussed on the right priorities as president.

That poll comes as Trump’s popularity is historically low for a leader this early in a term. More than half of voters disapprove of Trump’s performance as president, and majorities oppose his tariff policies and slashing of the federal workforce.
