War on all Americans? Trump won the election and has good approval ratings.
Good approval ratings with who? From what I’ve seen his approval ratings with Americans are almost as terrible as they were last time.

That doesn’t mean that what he’s doing is good for Americans, it just means Americans don’t understand the consequences or don’t care.
I have seen a lot of comments these days that voters are stupid, or something equivalent. I suppose that is all the Democrats got at this point.
But there are way, way more comments, posts, and articles about how he’s reneged on his promises & will continue to hurt people for the sake of hurting people… In the face of authoritarianism, you’re worried about decorum?
Based on his current approval rating, he is doing what he promised to do, which won him the election.
This is the most garbage logic. His approval rating does not directly equate to fulfilling promises. There can be cause and effect, but it’s not guaranteed especially when there’s so many factors that impact approval rating.
Presidents get a post election bump. It has nothing to do with fuffiling policy promises. Hell, the bump began before he took office, so obviously it has little to do with him fulfilling promises. Trump had a bump his first term too. But guess what. Literally every other president, including Biden, had a better overall approval rating at the beginning of a term than trump ever has. Time will tell where his approval lands.
There is never going to be a perfect metric on fulfilling campaign promises. The approval rating is a very good metric for that. Did someone said this is perfect metric?
Trump was acting more like the sitting president than Biden between election and inauguration. Of course that can result in a bump. For example, the Israel Hamas ceasefire. Trump was critical in getting that deal done even though he was not a sitting president at the time.
Your logic was very bad.
I didn’t say it wasn’t even and imperfect metric. I’m saying that its almost no metric. Perhaps even evidence of poor performance to be honest. Because the approval bump is a repeatable and measurable phenomenon we observe after every election that has 0 to do with presidential policy or action. And his post election approval bump is the second worst in history, only below his own poor approval bump from his first term.
Information is relative to the environment and circumstances. Is doesn’t exist in a vacuum.
American voters are stupid, that’s what conservative politicians have been working towards with 50 years of education budget cuts.
This is a losing argument for Democrats.
You seem to think I’m American. That’s cute.
Wrong. I didn’t think that. Perhaps reread what I wrote.
30% is not good approval ratings.
That’s less than the 34% he had when Biden took the Presidency from him.

I am not sure which exact number you were looking. Anyway, you want to look at multiple polls if it is there. I provided the link.
