    Better provocative headlines:

    “Trump approval still at 39% despite months of controversies”

    “39% of US citizens unaware of fall of nation”

      39% Nazis willing to go down with the ship just to have their hate validated. Not a very catchy headline, I’ll admit.

      Nixon was at 31% when he resigned. Dubya also hit the low thirties, but he didn’t resign.

        Nixon didnt have the right wing propganda juggernaut Trump does.

        Dubya i think only fell that low when the floor fell out of the housing? Market or the dotcom bubble? Fuck i dont remember but it was in like 07-08 so doubtful he would have resigned

          I think Katrina didn’t help W. Neither did seeing the obvious failure of the second invasion of Iraq. I think the economy doing a swan dive was the last straw.

    Saved you a click:

    The latest YouGov/Economist survey shows that 57 percent disapprove of Trump’s job performance as president, compared to just 39 percent who approve.

    I’m worried that if Republicans don’t think they can win the next election they’ll enact plans to completely undermine the next election. If they think they had a shot then maybe they wouldn’t take the risk/effort, now they’ll be less hesitant.

    Was this a 2 x 4 with “All-time low approval ratings” written on it in sharpie? No? Then shut the fuck up. He’s happier than a pig in shit while the rest of us contemplate what our lives have become under our corporate overlords.
