Donald Trump continues to have a low favorability score among Americans, new polling shows, despite being the likely Republican nominee after winning the lion’s share of primaries and seeing off his only remaining rival.
An ABC News/Ipsos survey of 536 U.S. adults, conducted between March 8-9, found that 29 percent have a favorable view of the former president compared to 59 percent who view him unfavorably.
It came after Trump secured all but one of the primaries on Super Tuesday—giving him 1,075 out of 1,215 delegates he needs to become the presumptive Republican nominee—which prompted former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley to drop out of the race to leave him unopposed. Primaries being held on Tuesday could push Trump over the line.
Trump’s popularity has remained largely unchanged since last summer. In similar polls conducted last year, which have a margin of error of 4.5 percent either way, he has hovered around a 30 percent favorability rating.
I’m not happy about it either, but I predicted Trump would win 2024 back in 2018 when the DNC pulled their shenanigans against Bernie and nothing that’s happened since then suggests a change in course.
America isn’t a Democracy, it merely pretends it isn’t an oligarchy.
Like hell you’re not. This mindset of yours very coincidentally requires absolutely no action on your part. That’s what you’re happy about.
You’re not evil, you’re just lazy and trying to justify it.
My state has universal mail-in voting, it literally requires no effort.
Pretend I’m happy and lazy if you want, I’ll be over here making plans to GTFO the USA.
Coward
One seems to presume that I would care how some rando on the internet wants to judge my character when my right to continue existing as a trans person is under active threat by my own government…
The “Last Days of the Weimar Republic” vibe has never been stronger.
