A new poll shows that about 4 in 10 Americans say Trump has been a “terrible” leader in his second term.
The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research also found that about 2 in 10 think he has done an average job in his presidency and 3 in 10 says he’s been a great or good president.
44% say Trump’s focused on the wrong priorities in the AP-NORC poll, 21% said an even mix and 10% don’t know
I agree with your take, but I’d like to add some context to it.
Dems constantly go on about the things they want to fix. Public Healthcare. Free College. Money out of politics. Clean air. Clean Water. Etc. But for all the promises they make, we got a Republican healthcare plan that didn’t even include a Public Option, college is more expensive than ever, money is rampant in politics, and all of this with a dose of increased cost of living from housing through food.
I can see grousing that “Yeah, I don’t like what the Shitgibbon is doing, but at least he’s doing what he promised to do!” I think Dems need to take notice here, but the question is: What will they do when the moneyed class starts yanking their chains? Because I am sure the moneyed class is perfectly happy with a fascist takeover of the USA.
It’s really easy to make changes if you don’t care about whether those changes are positive or legal; you can tariff every other country and deport everyone who looks ethnic, but that isn’t actually benefiting the US. Democrats don’t make those kinds of promises because their goal is to improve the US. So… Yeah, Democrats could do the kinds of stuff Trump is doing, but most Liberals wouldn’t want that.
You completely missed the point, like the other commentor who dropped a similar load of excrement on my comment did. Let me spell it out for you. Don’t promise the sun, moon, and stars, when your plan is to put my face in the dirt for the corpos who actually pay your bills. Dem voters get tired of that shit.
Are you saying that Trump fulfilled more of his promises than Dems? He said he’d decrease the cost of living, but it went up. He said he’d bring manufacturing back to the US, but instead he’s killing US manufacturers. Look at the fucking stock market. He didn’t deliver on the promises that matter.
By your logic, Dems should keep doing what they’re doing but make additional promises for random actions. “Well, they might not have fixed healthcare like they promised, but they did eat the 10 club sandwiches they said they would, so at least they’re fulfilling most of their promises.”
I see your whataboutism and respond with what your mother should have told you: Two wrongs don’t make a right. Does anything you said have anything to do with promising us the sun, moon, and stars and delivering more cashola for the moneyed class?
I prefer Dems to Reps, but man, you got your head so far up the Democratic Party’s ass with this bullshit you’re spewing here that you can taste what they had for lunch!
Just ignore the constituition and the rule of law and get shit done ?
Of course not. Don’t promise things you never intend on delivering on.
Promise things that won’t happen and lie about why. Trump could do everything he’s doing legally and constitutionally, but it would require changing the law and constitution, which wouldn’t happen to the extent he’d need it to.
