Summary
Donald Trump has the lowest approval rating of any newly elected U.S. president since World War II, except for himself in 2017.
While his immigration policies and government downsizing have support, controversial moves—like ending birthright citizenship and renaming the Gulf of Mexico—face strong opposition.
Economic concerns, particularly rising prices, remain a major issue for voters.
Analysts say Trump’s popularity will likely hinge on broader economic and immigration policies, with potential political consequences for Republicans in the 2026 elections.
I don’t know how viable that actually is, a decade of Trump flags and Trump shirts and Trump merchandise, and decades of Trump branding everywhere before that. The Trump cult is in too deep.
The GOP winners will probably be the ones that poach the Trump brand as “we are Trump’s chosen ones to carry out Trump’s vision for America”, until his cultural significance wanes.
I honestly think there will be spontaneous dancing in the streets or wherever people are at if they learn of donnie’s passing.
