Trump's approval rating hits second-term low as Americans sour on the economy and Iran war

[struth]

We were getting to the good part where sealyboo starts telling you that only Republicans cause recessions….It’s a real eye roller…lol

But xiden and two years of Dems didn’t cause 9 percent inflation.

 

[Correll]

I think the union leadership knows what would happen to their unions if they lost Democrats support. They tell their idiot members but they are too stupid to understand.

No, you don't. That is just shit you are saying, because you are glad that the unions are in control of your fellow leftards. That gives you POWER.

They think they got theirs, their jobs are safe, so even if Republicans are anti union, it will never affect them.

Not sure what this is a response to.

Many of those idiots today now vote for Trump because he's going to bring high paying manufacturing jobs home. They are being conned. Those jobs will never pay what they once paid unless those workers in red states unionize. If they do, Republicans will send those jobs back to Mexico or China just like they did in the 2000's. How many union members voted GOP in the 2000's and it cost them?

Trump is clearly trying. That is better than voting for someone like you that thinks that PERMANENT WAGE STAGNATION is fine.

That you refuse to respect that, is you being an asshole.

Hey sucker. Did you hear that Trumpflation is going up even higher? Yesterday it was reported 3.3% inflation. Now it's 4%???

That was when Biden had inflation already in check. Going down. Biden had prices coming back down. But not fast enough for you. Trump said he'd lower prices. So for inflation to be 3.3%? Or 4%? And the only reason it's not higher is people aren't buying as much. Yet credit card debt is going through the roof.

Poor people like you might not survive Trump. That's when he gets you the most angry at us big ole bad wiberals. You fuching triggered lil *****.

Recent data indicates a significant portion of Americans are facing financial strain, with reports suggesting that nearly 8 in 10 (roughly 78%) live paycheck to paycheck, frequently struggling to meet monthly expenses and cover unexpected costs. This high level of stress is driven by rising inflation, high consumer debt, and costs outpacing income.

Look what Trump is doing to you all. I'm in the top 20% you stupid F'er.

You got to really hate America to call giving us 20.1 percent inflation, having inflation in check

That is not what inflation was in 2024.

How are you guys handling the economy?

Sure it was, from 2021-2024 that’s what inflation was, thanks to Joey Xiden.

He handed Trump a rising rate

And that was all done based on xiden’s policies

It wasn’t Iran

 

[Correll]

I assume driven by gas prices? How are wages?

Biden? You mean hte guy that got a pass from the fbi because he was too old and too far gone to stand trial?

Not sure going there, is your power move.

Poor people like you might not survive Trump. That's when he gets you the most angry at us big ole bad wiberals. You fuching triggered lil *****.

Here is where you try to make it personal, about my personal economic interests.

And if I respond, as I have in the past, pointing out that I am fine, then you attack me for having a "i got mine" attitude.

You are a bad faith actor.

YOu have admitted to thinking that permanent wage stagnation is FINE.

So, why are you acting this is a bad thing? To you this is the new normal and me and mine who want to change it, are being fools, for thinking it is even possible to change it.

You have often ridiculed me for thinking I can change that. Or even wanting to.

So, stop being a bad faith debater.

Look what Trump is doing to you all. I'm in the top 20% you stupid F'er.

And AGAIN, you play your retard move of making it PERSONAL, and if I respond to this you think attack me for being "I GOT MINE".


Dude. This is a political discussion forum. Not a partisan gotcha fest.

Try to be better.

Real wages are up…which is drastically different from where xiden had us

Yeah, that's the last numbers I heard. And one of the numbers you never here the leftards mention.

 

[berg80]

AI Overview

Real wages fell in the April 2026 report, with inflation-adjusted hourly earnings dropping 0.5% for the month and 0.3% annually.

Biden? You mean hte guy that got a pass from the fbi because he was too old and too far gone to stand trial?

He didn't get charged because he didn't commit a crime any prosecutor could get a conviction on based on the facts of the case. The purposeful, politically motivated, protocol violating commentary by Hur notwithstanding.

Two-thirds of Americans disapprove of Trump’s handling of inflation, according to an NBC News Decision Desk Poll, with some cracks emerging in his GOP support.

"Trump’s job approval rating has sunk to a new low as Americans express growing concerns about rising costs and the war with Iran, according to an NBC News Decision Desk Poll powered by SurveyMonkey.

Overall, 37% of adults approve of Trump’s performance as president, while 63% disapprove — including 50% who said they disapprove strongly — putting his job rating at the lowest point of his second term in NBC News Decision Desk polling. Two-thirds of respondents also disapproved of Trump’s handling of inflation and the Iran conflict."

Poll: Trump's approval rating hits second-term low as Americans sour on the economy and Iran war

Two-thirds of Americans disapprove of Trump’s handling of inflation, according to an NBC News Decision Desk Poll, with some cracks emerging in his GOP support.

www.nbcnews.com

19% approve of Trump’s failed, illegal war of choice.

A war costing Americans a billion dollars a day to pay for gas and install a more radical leader of Iran.

And that anyone approves of Trump overall is madness.

Polls have been consistently wrong about Trump.

Hey idiot!

As of May 2026, U.S. annual inflation has accelerated to 3.8%—its highest level since May 2023.

With consumer prices rising for consecutive months, inflation is projected to exceed 4% due to high gasoline and housing costs.

In October 2024, the U.S. annual inflation rate was 2.6%

Trump said in October 2024 he was going to bring prices down. He did the opposite.

In October 2024, the U.S. annual inflation rate was 2.6%. So Biden got inflation down to normal.

Haha more deflection!

The same debunked narrativ

Who debunked that narrative? Donald Trump? I posted links. You've got nothing in rebuttal but insults. As always.

It’s highest level since Biden was president?

 

[sealybobo]

Yes but remember it wasn't Biden's fault and he fixed it. Him and the Feds fixed inflation. Got it down to 2.6%

Trump with tariffs and war got it up to 4% now. He promised us he was going to bring prices down. You must have known he was lying when he said that because his lips were moving.

Didn't this cause inflation?

President Trump signed the $2.2 trillion CARES Act on March 27, 2020, as the first major COVID-19 stimulus, providing $1,200 payments to eligible individuals ($2,400 for married couples) and $500 per child. This initial relief aimed to support Americans and businesses facing economic fallout, with payments beginning to arrive in April 2020.
