4 in 10 Americans be like

4 in 10 are fucking dipshits.
Lol.
Without a doubt the worst president in U.S. history and we're only at 6 of 10?
This nation is a fucking clown car flying off a cliff made of clowns into a black hole of endless Mandelbrot clowns.
To be clear, this country is far, far too stupid for anything other than continued collapse to happen even after this pedophile is being eaten by worms.

Well hey these survey takers sure didn't ask me. Sounds like they didn't ask you either. I dunno who is even answering these things. How does one get asked?
I bet they're missing a lot of Americans in these surveys! I bet it's more like 8 or 9 out of 10 if the survey was more obviously available.
4 are fine with this. Which is terrifying.
This. The take home here is that the people are still 40% stupid.
I mean.....6 years ago it was 48%.
So that's......progress?
The important question is how many of that 60% would vote for him or another R, again.
And that answer is going to be depressingly high.
Keep in mind that according to the US Department of Education, 54% of American adults cannot read or write prose beyond a sixth grade level.
Also, I have read elsewhere that nearly 20% of Americans are functionally illiterate. I wonder how many of these people vote.
Don't give one single fuck. Not an excuse. Stop using it.
Did you reply to the wrong comment?
Not necessarily; some will have answered non-committally or less disapprovingly. I think the article states that only 23% approve.
"He's doing a bad job" is pretty strong disapproval you usually don't hear from the gen pop.
And let me just add that our language of political discourse has eroded during the past decade; one can read more and more Trump-speak ("bad job") in headlines, it's being adopted.
It's probably more like 32-38% and they chose a 1-10 scale so they could round up for a better headline.
still.... there would be 2 to 3 people out of ten looking at the wannabe Nobel Peace Prize guy waging wars, at the "jobs are coming back to America" guy sending unemployment rates up, at the "we'll end inflation" guy causing $5 gas prices.... should I go on? But still 3/10 people are looking at all this and think "eh, we're doing fine!"
And? Nixon maintained 25-30% support up until his resignation. I'll never understand what leftists expect to see from the American people
Nothing, and I'm sorry if my remarks may have sounded offensive to people in the US. It's just weird from a European perspective, where an approval between 30 and 40% would make most of our governments very happy.
A while back, I've read an article on the Obama-Keyes race for the Illinois senate race, saying that 25-ish% is the lowest approval rate you can ever get in the US based on the fact that Keyes (who lost in a landslide but still got about 25% of the votes against Obama) was:
a. black (so racism wasn't a factor)
b. not from Illinois (so that wasn't a factor either)
c. by all accounts, very unlikable and a complete lunatic
Sorry the piece I was referring to was much deeper but I can't find it again, now.... If they are right, this IS basically already rock bottom for Trump in terms of approval.
Oh look, another 6/10 survey. File it with the “2/3 of Americans aren’t massive idiots” and “60 to 70% of people agree good things are good and bad things are bad” surveys.
It’s the drawer next to the “51% vote for nonsense” drawer.
Actually, Trump got 49.9% of the vote.
They’re still massive idiots because they refuse to do something about the other 30%.
Such as what? Some of you Canadians talk a lot of shit for a country that didn't wake up until ours threatened annexation. Then all of a sudden you realized the far right is bad and Americans need to get violent even though you yourself are too cowardly to actually say it out loud.
Four in ten Americans are mentally impaired
4 in 10 aren't paying attention and/or are bad people and bad citizens.
I cannot say that the UK is very much smarter, but 40% of the US is dumb as shit.
4 in 6 10 Americans are why I have no hope for humanity.
And 4/10 don't understand why Homelander is a bad guy
In other news, 4 in 10 Americans should either be launched into the sun or hung for treason.
The delta V requirements to launch them into the sun are just way too wasteful. Let's do the other option.
Unfortunately it seems that 8 in 10 Americans also think the Democrats are "just as bad".
8/10 Americans think Trump is bad but Kamala laughed funny
As someone who voted for Kamala Harris.. I really wish people would stop pretending like she was a good candidate. She was the better candidate.. relative to a sentient bag of shit. To be fair, the fact that the democrats were split on whether or not incinerating children was okay, probably meant that they were doomed to lose the election no matter who they ran..
sentient
Arguable, he has zero internal monologue and has to express everything he comes up with immediately out loud. If he's sentient, a LLM is too.
That is 100% fair but it’s irrelevant. At this point it doesn’t matter what skeletons she had in her closet or what she supported because there is NOTHING she could support that would be worse than what we currently have.
Why do yall keep acting like she was a good candidate? Neoliberals arent good for anyone either. Wow we voted for a trash democrat, were so awesome. She still is shit and we need to do way better. She will never win
Congratulations on being a bot. I’ll engage you this once and block you.
No one said she was a good candidate. The alternative that we currently have is a convicted felon, convicted rapist, and at the bare minimum was associated with one of the biggest pedophile sex trafficking ring that has ever been discovered with hundreds of testimonies that he engaged in sexual acts with trafficked minors. Idk what kind of mental state you’re in to think that Kamala did not deserve your vote (if you are even American which I doubt) but in no universe is Trump an acceptable alternative. IDC what mental gymnastics you come up with to say she was unfit to serve because it doesn’t matter. The alternative is UNIVERSES worse. If the last year hasn’t proven that to you than god help you because you are mentally unwell and should seek help.
They are just as bad. Or more accurately they are the same thing. They are both classical liberals and a classic liberal democracy is not viable. Capitalists with free reign.
Given the power of data aggregation, modeling, think tanks and llm human voters are a solved puzzle. At this point they are just testing the models.
“Says here we can do x and that will only move 3% of the electorate”. “REALLY!!” “Yep”.
The whole thing has to burn and we need some ground up reconstruction of our political system. Otherwise it’s just a dystopian cyberpunk future.
Plenty of dumb racist pedo protecting bastards in the survey.
Only 6 in 10!!!!!!!!!!!??????
I'm not sure why you're surprised. It's not like these numbers have changed, ever.
Normally the number of maga psychos hovers around 33%. And Trump has done such a spectacularly bad job for everyone excepting the rich that I thought it would at least be 7 out of 10.
Americans never cease to amaze me in the power of their undying hatred of themselves and anyone who isn’t white.
The other 40 percent are my grandparents.
That means they'll gerrymander that 40% to the top, block votes from as many as they can from the 60% and ICE the people that would decrease that 40% even a bit.
Am I misremembering previous polls? I could have sworn this has been about what his approval has been ever since his first term.
Those numbers are higher than the 30% that voted for him. Sounds like he’s doing well.
As trump would say, "Let's get those numbers higher!". To paraphrase bondi, "The hate is at fifty thousand!!".
hes doing a selfish job. all for his own benefit. he wouldnt even know other people existed if they werent constantly correcting him
It would be better if that could be gotten up to 9 in 10 Americans say the president is doing a bad job, so he can be gotten out of there due to his threats of ending an entire civilization.
4 in ten americans are delusional morons. Sometimes preventing a problem from happening at all is better than dealing with its fallout.
As was predicted because this entirely predictable outcome of making him president is exactly what was expected. And guess what? It's going to get worse.
Those are rookie numbers, you gotta pump those numbers up.
More than 8 of 10 Germans think our Chancellor is doing a shit job
I call bullshit. I've seen polls that put congressional approval around 10-15 percent. And Trump is running Congress as maga Republicans vote however he says.
How the hell does this make sense? Over 80 percent of Americans disapprove of Congress.... Why the hell are Americans voting for these schmucks?
And they're scrambling to gerrymander it so they can cram even more turds in the toilet.
not republicans though, they bought into the koolaid so much they can back out.
