President Trump's approval rating has fallen precipitously since he took office due largely to growing economic concerns.
  • Trump’s approval has taken a substantial swing of 9.6 points, from a net positive of 6.2 points in late January to a net negative of 3.4 points in mid-April.
  • Trump’s loss in support among Hispanic and young adults has been especially steep.
  • The president has not persuaded Americans that foreign countries and producers will bear the burden of higher tariffs, or that the gain will be worth the pain.

      Technically he didn’t. He’s in office because there is no support for the opposition. It’s the same shit Putin used to do to stay in power: make his opponents seem as unlikable as possible.
