Normally, because normally economic forces are outside presidents’ control & effects take months to unfold. Obviously someone like Hoover who exacerbated problems are different. But Trump *did do this, this problem is entirely of his making & his decisions. Quote

I am a Canadian so it doesnt affect me directly.... but I think it is safe to say the US has just killed a foreign countrys leader and religious leader. there is a very real chance of terrorism coming down the pipe. you want these guys working. even if the rest of the govt remains in shutdown, you need to make a deal of sorts here so you have your best security people on the job. Now is not the time to pinch pennies on this issue or remain firm along party lines. you guys need to sort this out before something serious happens. so both republicans and Democrats I implore you: quit being children. get the security guys at the airports and the air traffic controllers back on the job. Let the shutdown affect the rest of government if you must. the safety of the public needs to be the #1 priority here. make it happen There needs to be a law that when these asshoIes want to play the political posturing game and "shut down" the government, Congress doesn't get paid until everyone else gets paid. With no backpay for Congress when things resume. That's the only thing that will put a stop to this buIIshit. 1 Quote

Sean Mooney Posted March 27 Posted March 27 Let's talk inflation and that word nobody knew before Trump "groceries": Ground beef up ~20% YOY: Coffee is up: 30.3% YOY Orange Juice prices are up Eggs are cheaper (no massive bird flu yet, but still) Results were households spent an estimated 310 dollars more in groceries in 2025 and they estimate higher in 2026. Don't want to talk groceries? Fine, household energy prices are up 6.2% YOY. Electricity prices rose at more than twice the overall inflation rate- fastest increase in a decade. Gas prices jumped 19% in a month. Trump has failed the people who voted for him after he promised lower prices. 1 1 Quote

Covering the No Kings march by indivisible organizers. Reporting Pro-American counter protesters are disruptive.

squistion Posted April 1 Posted April 1 Quote Obamas was at 38 pct in his second term, and he had the benefit of a fawning media. Yeah, but didn't end at 38% did it? Fun Facts; Barack Obama left office in January 2017 with a high approval rating, generally hovering around 57% to 60% in major polls. Gallup recorded his final favorable rating at 58%, while CNN and The Washington Post placed his approval at 60%. 1 Quote

The media landscape is completely different now. Newspapers have been reduced to tabloid size & consolidated, CBS is neutered, & people more & more rely on “Know Nothing” podcasts & TikToks like Rogan & random people talking in cars. The WH & Pentagon press corps are curated as well. Trump has no excuses. Quote

Just to speak to HT2’s other point here, Dems very much ran from Obama during the ACA debate, which I am guessing is when his approval declined because all the choices sucked (some wanted Medicare for all, others were ticked about abortion etc etc). - But the Maga GoP is *not permitted to separate from Trump, they will be punished if they do one way or another. We have a Senate race here & the ads are about who is *really loyal to Trump. It’s crazy. Of course the Dem superior in almost every level of qualification but it’s ignored. 1 Quote

Ee have a Senate race here & tge AfD are about who is *really loyal to Trump. It’s crazy. In normal political times, I think you're absolutely correct. When a president becomes unpopular, people seeking a more prominent role in the party will start to challenge or separate themselves. The fact that we aren't seeing this at all should be a very worrying sign for anybody concerned about the future of the GOP. 1 Quote

Today Trump showed he doesn’t even know who he’s supposedly negotiating with in Iran. How does a President wuth that kind of disconnect from reality improve his standing? Quote

You said Obama’s rating in his second term, after being re-elected, was because of what happened at the beginning of his first term. Just own up to the thing you made up on the fly. Quote
