12:00Now PlayingIt turns out that politicians who win office and then betray practically every campaign promise wind up dropping in the polls. Who knew? In this segment Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger highlight new polling showing Donald Trump at the lowest approval rating of any president at this point in a second term—33% overall, with 76% disapproving of his handling of gas prices and 69% on the economy.
Jimmy notes that Trump's approval among Republicans has dropped from 87% to 80%, and only 26% of independents approve, while 54% disapprove of the Iran war. He contrasts this with George W. Bush's 80% approval at the start of the Iraq war, arguing that Trump's broken promises on ending wars and lowering costs have destroyed his political capital. He predicts record Republican resignations before the midterms and suggests Trump may be forced to resign, with JD Vance installed as a "technocrat puppet" to end the war and salvage the party.
