Disapproval rose to 62%, the worst of his two terms in office, amid economic issues since launching his war against Iran
Six months out from November’s midterm US elections, Donald Trump’s disapproval rating has reached 62% – the worst of his two terms in office – according to a new Washington Post-ABC News-Ipsos poll.
The US president received his worst ratings on the cost of living and other economic issues since launching his deeply unpopular war against Iran in February, which has plunged the global economy into an oil crisis and sent gas prices rocketing to a four-year high.
Trump achieved majority disapproval on his management of every issue measured, including Americans disapproved of his handling of that war by 66% to 32%, while a staggering 76% disapproved and only 23% approved of his handling of the cost of living. Two-thirds of Americans now feel the country is headed in the wrong direction.
What does that say about America? I think it’s past saving to be honest.
Probably that the rural, least populated parts of the country hold a disproportionate amount of political power and this is a consequence of that. Well that and the deliberate defunding/deconstruction of our education system.
You’re saving to be honest, but I’m saving for the invasion. We are not the same.
Nothing the rest of the world didn’t already know.
