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
6 out of ten said what? This is fine…?
It’s a bullshit poll. 10% selected “I don’t know.”
The AP-NORC poll surveyed 1,260 adults from April 17- April 21, using a probability-based method from AmeriSpeak. The margin of sampling error for the poll is plus or minus 3.9 percentage points.
He’s underwater at 54.6% unfavorable on YouGov as of five days ago.

He’s 59% unfavorable on Pew Research Center as of three days ago.
I mean, these numbers are still crazy low relatively speaking.
They’re the lowest in
presidential history70 years. Don’t forget, they’re not exclusively asking informed people.
They were probably afraid to speak for fear or being deported
It’s because we’re literally surrounded by nazis
Could be 6 out of 10 said he should be put into the ground, it could also be 6 or if 10 said he should be the next pope.
I misread it as 4/10 say he’s good, and still thought WTF?!
2/10 Say he’s average. 3/10 think he’s great!
1/10?
30% of the population thinks tanking the economy, shredding the constitution, and deporting people to what is essentially a death camp without due process, all totally legal and very cool.
How THE FUCK is it only 4 in 10?! Have they been bound, gagged, and held away from any goddamn newssource? This incontinent incompetent asshole is qualified to sit in a fucking jail cell, that’s it. God this country is stupid…

No, but there are millions who basically do not consume news outside of social media. And as you see on social media, people constantly complain about having to see “politics” and many try to block anything regarding that.
I was venting… I work with people who complain that they were inconvenienced by protesters but also wont listen to why they were protesting… I feel tired and old.
Hell it happens here on Lemmy. And tbh I’ve thought about doing it too, shit’s way too depressing right now.
Alternate title - 6 in 10 Americans don’t think Trump is a terrible president.
Is this supposed to be better?
Like it or not (I don’t) the horrific immigration policies get a lot of support. Other countries are taking notice too.
Germany is considering removing German citizenship to dual passport holders if they are deemed “extremists” (but with no clear definition of what that means and how it would be determined).
Since before Trump 2, Italy has already had its own camp in Albania for immigrants and it’s share of friction with judges who said these deportations were illegal.
Also “let Russia have Ukraine, why do we care” has enjoyed the sort of support people are ashamed to admit but that translates to votes to all the worst politicians.
the horrific immigration policies get a lot of support.
Which just demonstrates the stupidity in this country. If this shit was happening while a Democrat president was in office, they’d be on the White House lawn with guns and nooses. The same exact people.
A lot of the same stuff was happening under the last two D administrations. 3 year olds representing themselves in courts is not a new thing, and most of the detention camps aren’t new. Targeting citizens and deporting to a foreign concentration camp is really the only new part.
“He’s really doing the stuff that he said he was going to do,” Tanner Bergstrom, a 29 year old Republican from Minnesota, told the Associated Press. He added that Trump is “not making a bunch of promises and getting into office and nothing happens. … I really like that. Even if it’s some stuff I don’t agree with, it’s still doing what he said he was going to do.”
He’s a Nazi, but at least he’s an honest Nazi.
I did Nazi that coming.
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.
4 in 10? Are these polls conducted in Mobile, Alabama?
They’re conducted by calling people who answer the phone when an unknown number calls. So boomers.
Actually, people who answer the phone, hear a machine say it wants you to take a survey, and bother answering it… Dems some ooooooold people
4 in 10 Americans have an IQ above 12.
How is it only 4 in 10?
Oh wait, maybe the other options were Horrible and stinking, which both received 3 votes.So 60% of Americans are pieces of shit. That tracks.
The world is full of dumb people shocker
44% is not sinking. What has that number moved, 1.3%?
6 in ten Americans are complete imbeciles I guess
Shows that Trump is not the problem. He is the symptom.
What the fuck is wrong with the other six?
Lots of things!
Hands down, the worst president, twice.
So 44% think he’s doing terribly, 21% are an even mix, 10% don’t know. That’s 75%. One can only assume that the remaining 25% think he’s doing a great job. I also imagine that there is an element of the shy conservative in these responses so the actual figure is probably like 30-40% think he’s doing pretty good.
It’s always ~30-40%. Those are the “deplorables” that Hillary famously talked about.
People who revel in the cruelty above all else.
