Way fucking worse jfc
Was there another president who polled as worse than two different immediately previous presidents? He could have just had people saying Obama was better, but no, he had to run a third time, and now (all the best) people are saying Obama and Biden were better than him.
I hope he cries himself to sleep on his gold polyester pillow.
LOL, what kind of metric is that? Biden may be kinda milquetoast in pursuing criminals like Donvict, but things were actually really quite good under his presidency.
A better metric is to say that Donvict is the worst president in history - he's such a dirtbag and a greedy little shit that he may very well destroy this country. He's that bad.
18 point swing sounds great, but the 'post-swing' percentage is 51% thinking he's doing a worse job than Biden, which isn't nearly as encouraging overall, imo.
Also, apparently the prior poll that's the other side of the 'swing' is one that was taken just after he was inaugurated...isn't that kind of a stupid time for a poll asking 'do you think the President is doing a better or worse job than the last President', just as he begins his term?
Trump is the worst president ever.
And now confirmed stinkiest.
While it was 100% predictable that he would be worse than Biden, that isn't the worrisome part. It is the prediction that once he won, there wouldn't be another real election and he would stay. That part is becoming more likely every single day.
Under no other president did I fear for the lives of so many Americans.
At work, we used to talk about dumb shit. Who brought M&Ms or cupcakes. How some random movie ended.
Now, some of my coworkers are terrified. We had a incident where some masked goons rushed up on a random woman and when we all came out, they ran away.
Our manager openly said, "None of them are allowed in the building." And during the worse of it, my manager brought a shotgun.
Average office workers are arming themselves.
This is what this orange motherfucker did.
I'm amazed more people aren't standing their ground (opening fire) when masked goons jump out of an unmarked car and try to kidnap someone. So much for all that second amendment peacocking eh
The second amendment people are absolutely on the side of Trump. They are more likely to shoot people who try to stop ICE than anything else.
We have more guns in the US than every single US citizen and we have lost more lives to gun violence than every war we have ever fought combined.
Guns don't solve our problems. It truly takes an idiot to believe they do.
Because they're not out in force in places where a high percentage of people carry.
When they raided Chicago ICE specifically stayed away from the really bad parts because they didn’t wanna get shot.
Plus most people have no combat training. I can handle aggressive drivers no problem. If masked thugs rush me with drawn weapons, I will very effectively shit myself at best, run hard at worst
This is the correct answer. They're hitting blue cities where it's mainly left leaning people who are anti-gun. Why hit a 2a strong hold if you're probably going to meet force. They'll kill for the paycheck, but they don't want to die for it.
People just don't want to be involved, and I'm not going to judge them for that.
As in, I have a wife and 2 young kids. My purpose in life is to care for and support them. If I'm at work or whatever and some goons show up to abduct someone I don't know, I'm not going to start blasting and go down in a blaze of glory because of an ideological position.
The truth is there would be more incidents of people fighting back if all the people here actually stood by what they say.
Notice how there isn't. Talk is cheap and this place proves it.
The truth is- youre exactly right. People don't stupidly sacrifice themselves knowing there is no popular pushback. And at this moment there is not that popular notion that things need to be overturned.
If you or your wife/kids were being abducted and sent to the camps, would you be happy knowing everyone else stood by not wanting to get involved?
I get being scared, but inaction is destroying countless families. If everyone stands together, the risk factor goes down.
The comment i replied to is advocating shooting at ICE goons.
Have you shot any of them recently?
Put your dick away mate.

Worse than Biden? He's fucking worse than GWB!!!
Don't forget that GWB is one of the people responsible for the post-911 over-reaction that allowed all of this to happen. Both ICE and DHS were created under Bush. Extra-judicial torture was justified under Bush.
None of this would be possible without him.
Don’t forget that GWB is one of the people responsible for the post-911 over-reaction that allowed all of this to happen.
True, true. But I could argue there was someone even more responsible than Bush...
In 1995, Biden introduced the Omnibus Counterterrorism Act, which contained proposals that were later recycled into the 2001 Patriot Act.
He also helped write the 1996 Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act, which he argued was a precursor to the Patriot Act.
You know it's bad when you hear progressives would take GWB again over the pedo n cheese
People were saying that 10 years ago
Even worse than Ronnie Raygun.
worse than Polk
67% WANT LOCAL OFFICIALS TO COOPERATE WITH FEDERAL AUTHORITIES TO DEPORT CRIMINAL ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
2/3rds of this country are absolutely just fucking assholes.
Falls in line with two thirds of the country being okay with Trump being president.
I think the framing of "criminal illegal immigrants" fucks with that data.
In every poll I've seen asking about how Trump's immigrant genocide is going, the numbers are far lower. Still far too high, but far lower.
DEPORT CRIMINAL ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
If they could stick with that, then it'd be a good*-sounding* idea -- who doesn't want to deport criminals who immigrated from somewhere else to be violent?
Sadly they're as incompetent as they are violent, and they can't even deliver on that since they don't even know the how of due process; or the why. It's a "best I can do is gestapo" kind of situation. And for that, they need a Nuremberg. And lots of rope.

The word "criminal" is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. I would expect local law enforcement to arrest criminals. I would then expect them to be deported. It doesn't mean people want local police to help ICE with their terrorist bullshit.
And stupid

worst Presidunce EVER!!!
Biden wasn't in the Epstein files.
Biden wasn't a traitor. He also didn't bankrupt a casino
Biden had all kinds of programs that looked out for US citizens and built up our healthcare and education.
biden also had all kinds of programs that specifically helped rural people who voted for trump. the chips act brought battery factories (now cancelled thanks to tariffs) AND his infrastructure bill that is bringing high speed internet to rural country right now.
Fucking sleepy Joe put Trump in the erosten files. What a monster.

Nah but Biden also didn't make sure to choose an AG to actually put the motherfuckers in the Epstein files behind bars, either. It's not like the Epstein information magically appeared when Trump became President, he literally ran in 2024 on the fact that Democrats hadn't released the files. This information was available when Biden was President. Epstein was (very likely) murdered while Trump was President the first time.
So, fuck Biden anyway, he was focusing on all this "decorum" shit when it comes to a fucking network of pedophiles and rampant corruption and oops didn't want to make it "lOoK PoLiTiCaL" to go after criminality. Now the same people they didn't want to look political prosecuting don't give one single fuck about looking political in prosecuting their perceived enemies.
Fuck, Biden was literally handed a free pass when the Supreme Court ruled that when a President does it, it's not a illegal. He could have done any number of things to prevent this with the backing of a Supreme Court decision that was tailored to support Trump but technically applied to any President.
Democrats may not be in the files, but they sat on their fucking asses writing strongly worded letters and throwing up their hands going "but it's too hard to make sure they go down! Gears of justice turn slowly, so slowly that Trump can be voted back into office even with all this hanging over him!"
It's a crock of shit, Democrats are culpable for not taking this fight to the mat and instead being wishy washy limp dicks who handed over the reigns of the government to corruption twice in a row.
Yeeeepppp the controlled opposition party made sure to protect their billionaires
controlled ~~opposition~~ party made sure to protect their billionaires
The actions of the Democratic party don't even warrant the term. Look at Schumers and Jefferies response to the literal kidnapping of a sovereign head of state. They were basically mad Trump didn't do the right paper work, but fully supported the action.

49% think Trump this term is doing a better job as President than Biden did his last term, I don't want to live on this planet anymore.
But in the new poll, 51 percent said Trump is doing a worse job than President Biden did
This is staggering: 49 percent think Trump is at least doing as well as Biden. The mind boggles...

Now check this against anything that matters. Guarantee you that at the end of the day, this means nothing at all.
People don’t like Trump. This won’t make a bit of difference to what he does, thinks, or feels.
