CNN Poll: Trump’s approval at 100 days lower than any president in at least seven decades

I adore Trump but I do wish he would stop kissing Israeli butt.

I adore Trump but I do wish he would stop kissing Israeli butt.

I agree he is too emotionally vested and tethered to Israel

But I also agree that Khalid guy had to go

I want to see the JOOOZ! bomb Iran! I also want to see Trump start selling weapons to Ukraine again if Putin doesnt want to negotiate.

I'd like to see him scare the shit out of foreign leaders again. In his first administration he was handed a gift that not many presidents enjoy; he was misrepresented by his opponents as being unhinged enough to start World War Three. And he made that work for him by playing up to it, famously saying shit like "please inform [Kim Jong Un] that I too have a Nuclear Button, but it is a much bigger & more powerful one than his, and my Button works" and threatening to glass Red Square if Vladimir Putin didn't watch his step.

The result of course being that Donald Trump is the only US president since Jimmy Carter to not start any new wars during his presidency. And I like that. I like it a lot. It's a stark contrast to the warhawks (Bush, Clinton) and the weaklings (Obongo, Biden) who were justly famous for starting shit, quite a lot of which they couldn't (or wouldn't) finish with a quantifiable and resounding tick in America's "plus" column.

Shit, Biden alone has contrived to put us closer to World War Three than anything Trump ever managed. And no amount of Chugs banging on about polls displaying shitty approval ratings is going to change my appreciation of Trump's unconventional efforts of peacemaking.

I'll point out too, that if it's approval polls that float his boat, then a recent round of in-party polling among the democrats revealed the startling, highly amusing factoid that among the democrats there wasn't a single candidate they could offer up for the top job who was capable of polling in double digits when it came to the top job. And fifty percent of democrats polled apparently were incapable of ponying up a preferred candidate at all!

In-party polling, mind you. So all the people voting were democrat supporters; no republicans, no independents... ALL polled were democrats. Half of them couldn't be fucked naming a front runner... and of the half that could, it wasn't sufficient to show any democrat hopeful capable of polling above single digits.

I don't remember whether that was a CNN or MSNBC poll, only that the results were buried with unseemly haste. As well they might be. Otherwise more people might have seen this current 24/7 news cycle regarding Donald Trump's alleged popularity for what it is... projection from a party apparatus that is so far into the weeds at this point they may as well fold their tents and retire to their cry closets.
