So older, white men who earn more money approve of the bigot in chief? Got it.
It’s disappointing to see the approval rating still so high…
There are pretty much no surprises here.
Commenting as a Brit who has a grandfather who bangs on about Trump being what the world needs, I can’t wait for this episode of “old man fucks the next generations” to be over.

I wish the data had a timestamp, “first quarter”, does that mean it’s from April 1st?
So many things are happening these days that 17 days old data can be completely outdated… Hell, on April 1st, the deportation of Abrego Garcia hadn’t yet been ruled as illegal.
Edit: data is from between April 1st and April 14th, so around 10 days ago

Shows u how partisan the US is

The USA seems more like two radically different countries battling for control of the whole, then any kind of ‘united’

I saw a poll today that said young people 18-22 disapprove of Donald Trump now, but they favor the Republicans 60-40. That’s NUTS. lol TikTok is frying these kids.

The comparison of Republican (90%) to Democrat (4%) really demonstrates just how deep the divide is.

It’s just one poll but for some reason the most interesting data point to me is that the highest approval group for education was “some college”

I know I shouldn’t, but I am shocked that 90% of republicans actually approve of Trump. He’s done quite a lot to undermine the fiscal conservatives amongst the other factions. I figured it would be somewhere around 75%. That’s really discomforting.

Who the fuck is that 4% democrat that approve of trump? Are they brain dead?
HoonterOreo on
We are truly in a quiet civil war rn

That’s 90% republican is what they care about.
And they have been walking around with a sledgehammer smashing institutions and government agencies that perform important roles in society, and 44% of the population stinks this is not only okay, but good. They’re not neutral, they approve.
I work in research, and I guarantee you that attack on the National Science foundation and the National institute for health are going to destroy a generation of American scientists, and areas in which America has traditionally been absolute powerhouse leader.
The NIH is a Crown Jewel of the United States. It pays for itself and economic activity over and over again.
And as a canadian, I can tell you that we are looking to what’s happening in the South and now actively beginning initiatives to recruit American scientists, because the best talent is going to leave. It’s too unstable in the US right now.

I’d love to see a debate between the 8% of republicans and the 4% or democrats.
The difference might be timing, but I would expect the drop in economy to disproportionately bother the richer populations.

Gallups always had Trump in the low to mid 40s on the favorability/approval scale the last 9 years, so i dont expect anything less
Signal_Nobody1792 on
I actually am shocked US Republicans are all in on this. 90%? Jesus.

Im shocked by all the approval numbers. Its insane.

I would love to meet the 4% of Democrats that approve of Trump’s job performance lol

The Democrat/Republican divide is really jarring. I knew we were polarized, but wow-it’s on another level. It makes you wonder what forces are driving this.
Also, a non-political reminder: Reddit almost certainly has astroturfing, so approach political content here with caution. Not only are we all more vulnerable to bad faith actors than we’d like to admit, but there’s a small number of people with outsized moderation power that can take any topic and amplify or hide information to construct a narrative.

But, but where does this data originate from?

American men on avg are massively letting the US down rn. Rlly disappointing stat to see how many voted for Trump
CrazyCaper on
I can’t believe it’s so high. You guys are morons!
Meeganyourjacket on
How in the world is his approval rating this high? He’s gone absolutely apeshit on the constitution, is fucking up the stock market, and at every turn is flaunting his abuse of power. It’s like I’m watching a different movie than half the country.

I realize it’s a cult, but that 90% approval rating among Republicans is truly frightening.
CaptianTumbleweed on
Well, he still has the uneducated poor white male vote.
Numerous_Recording87 on
90% of Republicans are in his cult.
CommonSensei8 on
Wow 90% of republicans are fucking morons
artful_dodder on
As a non-American if pretty shocked he has such a high approval rating in general. I think it really goes to show how different the domestic media reports compared to the rest of the world.

54 percent of men? Your entire society is fucked in the head.

Look at all those “less than $50K” voting against their own interests.

I’m very surprised about the income split.
edit:
Here is some contradictory data:
