We had a poster on HROT who was confident Trump would have a 55% approval rating in April. His favorite tactic was to find one outlier poll and run with it regardless of what every other showed. He would never acknowledge the RCP average of many polls.

I'll help him out here. Insanely popular! @St. Louis Hawk

I am an Executive VP at a 1,000 person engineering company in SE. At our meeting yesterday we prepped for recession. It’s coming. Very similar to 2008 people are getting laid off for lack of work, including our industry, money is sitting on sidelines, and housing sales are stalled. FL has the most homes for sale in its history. And now you see what inflation is up to and the markets are tremendously overvalued with asinine price to earnings.

Things are going to finally catch up for 4 years of Trump followed by putting him back in. This last 18 months of literal insanity and intentional destruction (DOGE, Tariffs and Iran War) have taken what was going to be great economic times in 25 and 26 and pushed us into the brink of a bad recession.

Lol remember when the far left attempted to change the definition of the word recession when sleepy joe was in office to lie and claim we weren't in one (hint: we were). Now the same people fancy themselves experts on the topic and have been shrieking that a recession is coming any day for the last 1.5 years. I have great news guys, it ain't happening.



Keep crowing though, Mr "executive VP" 😂😂😂

I'm sure he meant disapproval rating.

Only missed it by 3 letters.

🕒 The latest on Trump’s approval rating

Updated May 12, 2026

Donald Trump’s net approval rating hit a new second term low of -18.9 in the Silver Bulletin average today. That’s not much different from his previous low of -18.8, but still, it’s bad news for an already unpopular president.

Things look even worse under the hood. Among just US adults — as opposed to our standard average that also incorporates polls of registered and likely voters — Trump’s net approval is -20.6. And about 48 percent of Americans strongly disapprove of Trump’s job performance. These numbers are partially why Democrats are on track for a strong performance in the midterms, even given their recent setbacks on the redistricting front.

Reporter: “Mr. President, to what extent are Americans’ financial situations motivating you to make a deal?”

President Donald Trump: “Not even a little bit. The only thing that matters when I’m talking about Iran, they can’t have a nuclear weapon.

I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation. I don’t think about anybody. I think about one thing: We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon.”
