Reality - Trump has the lowest rankings of any recent President after taking office. Trump is the most unpopular president in more than 70 years. Sorry, MAGA. | Opinion The findings don't come from some conspiratorially motivated business but from long-established pollsters. https://www.usatoday.com/story/opin...roval-rating-musk-poll-unpopular/80303852007/ Where is co-president Elon Musk and his snotnosed band of pubescent hackers when Donald Trump needs them? You’d have thought that with all the whiz-bang computer skills Musk claims his nerd bros possess, they’d have been able to weasel their way into the data collection systems of some big-time pollsters and jack up the numbers for the co-commander in chief. But I guess not. Because it ain’t good news. According to the most recent Gallup poll, Trump is the least popular president in more than 70 years. Or, as the company put it on its website: “Trump’s job approval rating is 15 points below the historical average for all other elected presidents in mid-February since 1953.” Two polls show the same low Trump approval rating Gallup continues: “Bill Clinton has the next lowest mid-February rating for a newly inaugurated president ‒ which, at 51%, is six points higher than where Trump is now. John Kennedy (72%) and Jimmy Carter (71%) were the highest rated at this point in their presidencies.” Ouch! Six percentage points below Clinton puts Trump’s approval rating at – wait for it – 45%. And just when you’d like to brush that off as fake news (knowing, of course, that Trump will try to do that anyway), another big poll comes out with – you guessed it – the same number. A Washington Post/Ipsos poll also finds that only 45% of Americans approve of the job Trump is doing. And for Elon, the numbers are much worse. Elon Musk's approval rating is even worse Only 34% approve of what Musk is doing in his non-elected job. Only 26% are OK with him shutting down government programs he thinks are unnecessary. And a whopping 63% don’t like Musk’s marauders gaining access to federal government databases containing Social Security, Medicare and tax information. In addition to all that, more than half of Americans, 57%, say Trump has exceeded his authority since taking office. And all this is before Americans have begun to feel the potential harm that could be done to their health, their safety and their pocketbooks by the wholesale slashing of government agencies that is going on under Musk’s watch and with Trump’s approval. Americans are already sick of the chainsaw routine And Musk is bragging about it. He took to the stage on Thursday at the Conservative Political Action Conference outside Washington, D.C., wildly waving a chainsaw. Ask yourself this: Exactly how comfortable would you feel if the boss at the company where you worked invited some random guy with a completely different business background to improve your company’s efficiency, and he entered the office like that?
A big part of the issue is that Americans voted for Trump, not Musk (and the others) and his sophomoric John Galt, Powell Memo, Heritage Foundation and Project 2025 ideology. Americans said, when asked, they voted for economic improvement, and better immigration management. They did not vote for an ideologically pure capitalism of the invisible hand, the laissez fairey, and some dreamy emergent utopia to follow—they did not vote for Brownback's Kansas Experiment 2.0.
Someone in the administration has convinced Romania to let the Tate brothers loose from house arrest to come to the US albeit on close supervision. Apparently they are due to land in Florida soon. But Governor Desantis found out about it and is planning to shut these fools down. Good on Gov. Desantis and shame on the fanboy in the admin somewhere who invited these grifters in. Like I said, this could turn into a deeply embarrassing scandal that might potentially be regretted for years. Let's hope Desantis can put the kabash on this clown car.
Lil' Ron doesn't have a choice about taking the Tate brothers in. Tiny D might as well get back to pushing his extreme right-wing social narrative --- including the part about women being submissive members of society. Gov. DeSantis doesn’t want Florida to take Andrew Tate. But does he have a choice? https://floridapolitics.com/archives/723358-tate-desantis/
Basically he's going to do whatever is possible a Governor can do to make them unwelcome. He'll redeem himself with a lot of Republicans who see through the Tate farce.
Which is just making a bunch of noise and actually doing nothing. Lil' Ron's political career is already dead. He is a lame duck just counting the days until he has to pack the moving truck to leave the governor's mansion. His GOP legislature won't even listen to him anymore. Naturally, the most important state issues in Florida, high property insurance costs and monstrous condo assessments, remain unaddressed -- while DeSantis and the Republicans dither about trying to come up with the most extreme plan possible for deporting immigrants.
I'm counting on him to get State Trooper Buford T Justice to pull them over on a seat belt violation on their way to Mar-a-Lago. I just hope it doesn't cause a public feud between Desantis and whoever it is the Tate Bros are trying to see .You can't make this shit up.
Rather than face mobs of angry Trump voters -- the Republican legislators have a new plan. Let's hide... and continue to support Trump in f@cking their constituents.

Welp, here we go . Sheriff Buford T Justice is currently in hot persuit across county lines, tryna pull over the Tate bros before they can get to Mara-a-Lago. It's a jurisdictional nightmare: I'm pinning this X to show the soft underbelly of the Republican machine. This X proves exactly how divisive this issue is, split right down the middle, and how potentially explosive this is. Some big names are sleepwalking right into this Islamists web. He is currently getting high milage out of the "Romania" is just a corrupt backwater excuse. And the fact that most of these big names have not seen all the videos available...most likely. So they think they are hanging with the bros like real men. This is where the gender ideology is potentially going to pendulum back and catch a few egos in the balls. Dude is a straight up Islamic supremacist highly trained in loverboy style grooming that involves beatings and ends with pimping and breeding.
