Every other president had an increase. Every single one. Not even breaking a record, creating a new one by failing twice.

[-] emeralddawn45@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

I dont understand how a president has a 70 or 80% increase in the first 100 days though? Isnt that measuring from when they were elected? How do you get elected with less than 20% approval?

Edit* nvm this was explained in several comments further down. I did read quite a few comments to see if someone addressed this but obviously not far enough

Numbers like this play right into MAGA brains. See, they're the smart ones who approve. It's the ignorant masses who disapprove. Trump could drop to a 20% approval rating, or lower, and that would only cement in their minds that they're on the right side of history.

"Uh, everybody hates this guy."

"Exactly as it should be!"

This is dead on. I really have no idea how to deprogram even one person who thinks like this, let alone millions...

wow, haven't seen a circle jerk like since my reddit days

[-] orca@orcas.enjoying.yachts 2 points 8 hours ago

We need more silliness like this.

[-] charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 hours ago

I find it boring but to each their own.

[-] thefartographer@lemm.ee 2 points 6 hours ago

Fine, no jerking for you! You can just sit there and watch.

Don't let @charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works ruin our fun, guys and gals and y'alls! Spit on your hand and really give it a good comment!

[-] charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 hours ago

I'm sitting here and likin' it. I spit all over my dick even though I'm not allowed to jerk it.

[-] orca@orcas.enjoying.yachts 4 points 8 hours ago

Now it truly feels like Reddit lol.

[-] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 1 points 8 hours ago

God forbid people amuse eachother, amiright?

[-] charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works -1 points 8 hours ago

Sorry about the comment since you can't handle it. I'm just not looking forward to reddit 2.0 where every fucking popular post 50% non-topical bullshit comments.

[-] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 1 points 8 hours ago

Lighten up. Not everything needs to be serious all the time

[-] charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works 0 points 8 hours ago

haha, I know that as well as anyone little, young buddy. Has nothing to do with what I said. But anyway, I realized I was I was in whitepeopletwitter and unsubscribed. This is the perfect for this kind of stuff and I'm the party shitter.

This man touched my penis. What's the deal?

[-] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago

How does that make you feel?

[-] gressen@lemm.ee 18 points 16 hours ago

Also every other president had a positive net approval.

[-] running_ragged@lemmy.world 15 points 15 hours ago

Your point is still valid, but it’s not an increase/decrease thing.

Im pretty sure Net Approval means percent that approve minus percent that disapprove.

[-] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 4 points 14 hours ago

Curses, you are right!
