Back in the heady days of roughly three weeks ago, the corporate owned media was groveling at the knee of Trump and trying to sell the idea that Trump had a mandate to govern.
If Trump was given a mandate, it was not to do what he is currently doing.
Let’s check out a few numbers from the latest YouGov/The Economist poll:
President Trump's approval:
Disapprove 49% (+2) Approve 47% (-1) (Registered Voters)
President Trump approval Disapprove 48% (+4) Approve 46% (All Adults)
Trump hasn’t been in office for a month, and he is already zooming toward a disapproval rating of 50%.
Within the next week or two, it is likely that a majority of Americans will disapprove of him.
Let’s take a look at who is driving these bad numbers for Trump.
Women: 39%-52%
Independents: %39-49%
Age 18-29s: 38%-56%
Hispanics: %34-60%
