And WhileThe Trump Admin Is Focused On Regime Change In Venezuela…

quote:

The president receives his top marks on border security (53% approve). Nearly half approve of his handling of immigration (46%), while a new low approves on the economy (38%), and about one-third approve on tariffs (35%) and healthcare (34%).

A lot of folks in the bubble deny the rising tide of discontent.

Luckily that’s a stat that can be turned around if things start going well at some point

Well good. They should write down their name so they don't receive the $2000 stimulus check. Oh, no The EBT crowd are ungrateful. Reeee

You mean business construction was booming from a Covid bounce back and 20,000,000 illegals invading us? While you’ll go through a correction, other industries are thriving. I’m in staffing and am seeing the same with layoffs from over hiring after Covid, but there’s huge buzz for what’s to come.

i don’t need a poll to tell me that people’s confidence in the economy is shaky. I work in a construction related industry and — excepting the madness of the COVID-1984 — new construction starts are lower than at anytime since the Great Recession.

I work in the construction industry as well. It's as strong as it's ever been. Im in NWArkansas so it might be better than your "worse than the great recession" bullshite your spewing.

Is this the same FoxNews that called AZ when the polls closed, and it then turned out to be the closest of all the states?

I'm sure its on the up and up

Trump need only to jettison the neocons from his administration and start to focus like a laser on the economy

If you wouldn’t mind, please share the exact identity of these supposed hardcore neocons that close to Trump in his administration who have the level of influence to literally mold Trump’s positions and decisions in the way you’re claiming. And what you’re relying upon to make said claim. TIA

Rubio’s own words:

And that’s the evidence of (1) Trump (and his major Presidential decisions in this area) being unduly influenced by (2) administration official Rubio who is unquestionably and inarguably a neocon to his core? (I.e. not merely someone who is called a neocon, but the person calling him that would have difficulty explaining in detail his reasoning for such.)

Neocon is not some made-up boogeyman word to describe someone whose political style I dislike; it is an actual ideology which promotes a world view which would be an anathema to our nation’s founders. Neoconservatives view this nation’s founding as a continuation of the imperial tradition, not a revolutionary break from it.

Neocons look wistfully upon the demise of the British Empire and thus posit that the stability of liberal society in the modern world is contingent upon immense imperial power. In the neocons viewpoint, the United States’ willingness to inherit the responsibilities of the British Empire following the end of WWII was instrumental in averting a potential crisis in Western liberalism.

Neocons thus believe that the United States exists to exhort it’s will upon the world — by violent means if necessary. Marco Rubio — as both a Senator and Secretary of State — has revealed himself to be a neoconservative in both word and deed.
