Summary

A Fox News host, Jessica Tarlov, highlighted Trump’s declining approval ratings, citing a new Quinnipiac poll showing 53% of voters disapprove of his second-term performance.

Trump is “underwater on everything” including economy, federal workforce management, Ukraine-Russia policy, and trade relations with Mexico and Canada.

The polling slide comes amid stock market tumbles, federal worker layoffs, and trade tensions.

Tarlov noted that Republican members of Congress are facing hostile town halls where constituents are challenging them on federal workforce cuts, including at the VA. Some Republicans have dismissed these angry constituents as “paid actors.”

      No he didn’t. The worst possible way would be to drag the rest of the western world into fascism with him, which he could’ve done if he’d just spaced out his horrible actions and used a bit of bureaucrat-speak to hide the full impact of what he was doing. Instead, the rest of the democratic world is forming a new economic and diplomatic structure that leaves America out.
