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.”

        Or Greenland, or Canada, or Mexico… Truly a winning strategy to threaten everyone all at once. 🙄

          Oh for sure, but he’s said to draw up plans to get Panama. So right now that’s the most “real” one

            My money is on Mexico, he has been placing brigades with Strykers and whatnot on that border. Whatever the case, still stupid and evil.

      I don’t see him starting a war without complete control of the military. While they are working on it, firing leadership, changing rules and policies, the military still has the power to say no to Trump, which is bad TV. Trump is also a bitch as seen by the wishy-washy way he approaches tariffs, he hates actual action because he just wants good TV and bad policy makes for bad TV.
