Lame duck (maybe), so I don’t think he cares about popularity. He’s pushing out EO’s as fast as he can, and many of them are idiotic.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

And yet he still got re-elected. We are the dumbest nation comprised of the most idiotic people to ever exist in history.
Note approval ratings in the USA start with Truman so this is the lowest approval rating period.
The fact that he isnt even less popular than his last election scares me. The guy has proven himself time and time again in the spotlight to be evil, moronic, really any negative adjective you can think of, and he still has supporters. More, even. How? *
The how is people who disprove of him being more than willing to allow him to win an election because they say there is no difference between him and his opponent. That is up till he is elected and then they suddenly realize how much worse he actually is.
And the thing people are most upset about is renaming the Gulf. What in the absolute fuck?
Trans people are attempting to flee the country fearing for their lives
...and the thing people care about is the fucking Gulf of Mexico getting renamed
I need to know the content of the footnote.
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
Also, until the Democratic party engages in serious reform that throws out the old leadership who keeps collaborating with fascists, slashing our safety nets, and throwing taxpayer money ~~and~~ at private for profit organizations we're going to keep getting these waves of fascists taking over every other election
e; autocorrect is reactionary /s
I hope his old age makes his life extremely difficult.
Ngl, I hope he dies. Soon.
Would it make a difference? His VP is a white supremacist, too, and his party still controls both chambers.
His death would provide America's favorite gender-neutral toilet, so that's something.
And the VP is already third in command. Fifth if you count Putin and Thiel.
Cults of personality don't transfer power well, generally. I think that is why Project 2025 was such a big deal for them since it gave structure even when trump dies.
Sadly worst ones seem to live the longest 😭
Chin up! There's always operation Valkyrie 2.0
True but hopefully done with a much better plan lol
We're fine with kicking out all the Mexicans but don't you dare call that water something else. Classic America.
