Study released a day before State of the Union address shows president has lost support among Republicans
Most US adults think Donald Trump is moving the country in the wrong direction during his second presidency, according to a new NPR/PBS News/Marist poll released the day before his State of the Union speech.
Fifty-five percent of adults feel that Trump is changing the country for the worse, a 13-point increase from around the same time of his first presidency, the survey conducted from 27 to 30 January found.
The number of people who held that view also increased four points from April.
Unsurprisingly, support for the president splits down party lines.
When you think about it that way it’s no surprise they worship the Orange Pedo as the Second Coming of Christ. You’ve been Living A Wicked Life and have Gone Down The Path Of Sin, and so you deserve to be smited by the divine! But the divine never answered his prayers; you and all those icky upstart ‘sinful people’ kept having a nice job and everything that he felt should be taken from you.
And then Trump comes along and grants his prayers with deportations and shootings and everything else he thinks you deserve. Is it any wonder he’s willing to suffer himself, as long as you ‘get what’s coming to you’?
I think the biggest thing that was so wild to learn about this relative was when they expressed that my wife and I going to college has basically tainted us. It is their belief that going to a university basically ruins anyone that attends. That’s some real tell me you know nothing about higher education without telling me…
So, in this case, the major problem with me (and my wife) is getting a higher education and not supporting the GOP. That’s about the extent of what they know about our politics, really. It’s not like we sit around reeling off readings of Karl Marx at gatherings like this.
