I've always said I like Trump with an anchor. Trump 2.0 feels a lot more like Trump without one. The end result is a narcissistic ego maniac who is completely in over his head piloting a ship, and he is surrounded by a crew too misguided to correct him, too frightened to say anything, or lacks the influence to make a difference. Both parties need to stop simply doing the opposite of what the other party is doing. Balance matters. The goal shouldn't be to be "better than Joe Biden" or "better than Kamala Harris." It should be to be the best President Trump is capable of being. Three months in, and he's been a huge disappointment in my opinion. Don't tariff for the sake of tariffs. Tariff with specific tangible reasons as to why countries are "ripping us off" and a list of specific demands that would lead to Trump removing the tariffs. And that's if you're going to tariff at all. I still think free trade generally makes for the best long-term policy. Don't deport as many people as possible. Deport the right people and deport them by the book.
Trump’s 41% approval rating is the lowest for any newly elected president at 100 days dating back at least to Dwight Eisenhower – including Trump’s own first term.
Lowest approval rating in 70+ years…. Adding a 145% federal sales tax to many of the items people buy will do this..
