Article is biased. All Presidents approval rating gradually declines. Trumps approval rating in his 2nd term started at 47%, which is low for a President's first month.

His real shift came during Iraq vs Iran and as voters didnt see improvement in cost of living.

Trump just said he wants home prices to remain high.

Young voters trend Democrat, but Trump won them in 2024. Now theyre returning.

No voter under 40 gives a shite about Minnesota, Venezuela, Tim Walz, Somalians. Im under 40.

Nobody gives a shite about DOGE, not even Elon Musk, he's been gone for 7 months Elon is being exposed by the Epstein files atm

Its about cost of living, inflation. Thats why Biden lost. Its getting worse.

The Republicans have a slim majority, thats why. Only 2 seat majority in the House, and a small one in the Senate which has required Vance to break several ties.

We're fine with getting the worst out first, since every one of those savages you send to CECOT is one less opportunity for the next Laken Riley to be murdered.

At the end of the day, if you didn't follow the processes set by law to be present in the United States legally, you are a criminal and have no right to remain in the US. Period.

Sorry that hurts your tender sensibilities.

I never said Americans don't want them gone. It's how it looks. If you don't think this will hurt during election time then prepare your sensibilities.

Social media tells them to be angry. I could care less what those people think about anything.

Biased?

Please. Real Clear is good about calling balls and strikes. Of course, if someone disagrees with you, he has to be biased.

Column makes a good point about how they had Minnesota nailed on massive fraud, should have sent in the auditors by the bushel and prosecuted but Stephen Miller used it as an excuse to hot dog and launch the D-Day invasion.

If you don’t see that there remains only one way to “fix” things, you won’t ever get it. And that one way isn’t ever happening so prep up or lube up.

RCP is fine, im referring to the writer Mark Mitchell .

his poling aside, he's been dooming for months about Trump / GOP letting down the young voters they won in 2024, who are a unreliable block.

Trump almost won in 2020 without winning them despite COVID, shut downs, Democrats advantage in Vote by Mail and George Floyd.

Trump is almost trending below Biden at the same point in his term.. because of Minnesota? no. Voters disapprove when ICE does their job. Minnesota showed why Trump had to go back to saying we're going to deport "Criminal Illegals", the donors are likely irate.

Trump will not save America, but he has bought us time. We basically already accelerated off the cliff in the past decade and he’s just making the crash softer. Survivable.

DOGE was sidelined when Trump's focus shifted to trade imbalances. You could as easily write something that Trump's decline is due to Americans being aggressively pro free trade.

Making these correlations is silly.
