Trump is deeply unpopular. History will remember you enabling his bad policies.

President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social on Sunday night, "Except what is written and broadcast in the Fake News, I now have the highest poll numbers I've ever had, some in the 60's and even 70's. Thank you. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!" Once again Trump appears to be making up flattering facts. But his old habit hits differently in this chapter of his presidency, as he carries out a playbook designed to subvert the functioning of our democracy. The president's claims have no grounding in national surveys. The RealClearPolling average puts Trump deeply underwater, with 46% job approval (and 51% disapproval). That's nearly 5 points down from the 50.5% average approval he held when he returned to office in January. Polling analyst Nate Silver's aggregator puts Trump's average approval 2 points lower, at about 44%. While that's better than Trump was at at this point in his first term, it's worse than for any other presidents at this point in their terms, according to Silver. Even the polls with the most favorable results for Trump don't get anywhere remotely close to Trump's being approved of by over 70% of Americans. On the other hand, Gallup's July polling showed Trump hitting his lowest approval ratings in its polling of his presidency so far - 37% - much of it driven by independents' turning on Trump. Gallup also found Trump weak on his strongest campaign issues, including 38% approval of his immigration policy and 37% approval on his handling of the economy. This is the anti-democratic, spiteful, divisive, and criminal sinking ship you are hitching yourself to.
