PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN....



Special to El Rrun-Rrun

President Trump’s approval ratings have fallen in recent weeks as he approaches the end of the first year of his second term.

A Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ) polling average of surveys on Trump’s approval rating shows it sitting at 41 percent, while his disapproval rating currently sits at 58 percent.

That’s lower than roughly a month ago, when the average had his approval rating at close to 46 percent and his disapproval rating at around 51 percent. President Trump’s approval ratings have fallen in recent weeks as he approaches the end of the first year of his second term.

While Trump said in a recent Truth Social post last weekend that he had received “THE HIGHEST POLL NUMBERS OF MY ‘POLITICAL CAREER,’” experts are saying otherwise, attributing his lower numbers to frustration around high costs and some slippage over the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids the administration has carried out.

Nine or 10 months ago, voters “thought the GOP and President Trump were the better ones to handle those two issues,” said Scott Tranter, DDHQ’s director of data science, referring to economy and immigration.

“Now, at best, the voters are mixed, if not negative, on the president [and] the GOP handling those top two issues,” he added.

The numbers could rebound, of course, and the recent shooting of two National Guard soldiers has put renewed scrutiny on the country’s immigration policies after authorities said the suspect was an Afghan national who had come to the U.S. under a Biden-era resettlement program, but was granted asylum by Trump.

Still, recent polling has painted an alarming picture for Trump. A Fox News poll found that 38 percent of respondents approved of the way Trump handled the economy, including only a quarter of independent respondents. The poll also found 35 percent of respondents approved of his handling of tariffs, and 34 percent approved of his handling of health care.

In the 2016 presidential election polls it was predicted that Hilary Clinton would win. In the 2024 presidential election polls Kamala Harris was predicted to win.
So you know what you can do with your polls! Have a nice day!

Cutting and pasting anti Trump lies is much easier than actually reporting on local issues and corruption. Been saying it for years,,, you are not a real journalist. Just another lazy ass person from Brownsville.

But the Republicans wanted to win, so they won. How? With the help of other Republicans. LOL The USA is like all countries in the world.... they like to feed lies to their citizens. We must believe our government. So you are right, Republicans won because Americans voted for them. LOL

Obama was the only one that recognized that Biden loved and served the country well. Obama gave a chance to an Irishman. FACT.
