note that the prior Republican president, Bush2, had an approval rating in the low 20s by the time he left.
I was certainly wrong, and appreciate the correction! However, according to 538 it was the ELDER George Bush, not the younger, who at one point had a lower rating than Donald Trump ever did. The same is true of Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter.
The fact remains that Biden by no means has the lowest approval ever, bad though it is, and that his lowest rating is still higher than Trump's lowest. So far.
on the 538 site, expand the charts to 8 years. You are probably looking at just 4 years.
I already know the answer, but do you even read the tweets that you link to? An anonymous source speculated that Hutchison might work for Trump in Florida. Some guy named Sean Davis failed at reading comprehension and decided that means that Hutchison was already planning to go work for Trump. You posted it on the board directly from Twitter without comment. Are you Sean Davis and you are trying to gain followers?
The source spoke with journalists from Bloomberg. The story is from 2021. There's more reason to believe this Bloomberg story than anything Hutchinson said to the 1/6 committee.
Sean Davis isn't just "some guy" either.
I might go work for Trump in Florida, too. Now make sure to report that I plan to work for Trump in Florida, because then you will be following the same logic path that Sean Davis did.
President Joe Biden announced on Thursday that he would support nixing the filibuster to pass nationwide abortion laws through the Senate. “We have to codify Roe v. Wade in the law, and the way to do that is to make sure the...
Biden pledges to nationalize his "devout Catholic" opinion that life begins 24 hours after birth and even then only if you decide to keep the clump of cells.

It is pretty funny that you're doing exactly what you accused me of doing...
You clearly didn't read the article linked in the tweet...
Sean Davis simply believed Bloomberg wasn't lying about a story they published.
I suspect all of these are counter to the wishes of the nation. Unbelievable.
this year, the Supreme Court has 1) made abortion illegal 2) made school prayer legal 3) make gun control illegal 4) overturned Miranda rights 5) made it illegal for the EPA to regulate emissions
The most frightening thing we’ve learned over the past six years is just how indifferent the vast majority of the Republican party is to the rule of law, the Constitution, basic decency, and truth. But there have also been ordinary men and women who met the moment with grace and integrity. Their examples prove that the flame of liberty has not been extinguished. If this republic survives, Liz Cheney will be remembered as a heroine who ensured that it could. And Cassidy Hutchinson will deserve a place of honor for showing a party of cowards what courage looks like.
So we know that at least six members of congress asked Trump for a pardon. And we know that a pardon, according to the Supreme Court, is tantamount to an admission of guilt.
Is there any reason why those six members of congress should not be expelled?
I think they are disputing that they asked for pardons. We need written evidence showing they did.
But yes, anyone asking for a pardon and not receiving it, should be arrested for the crime they sought the pardon for. It's a confession. Bail for such people should be set in accordance with standard Constitutional practices. They should be subject to home monitoring with appropriate ankle locks, shall refrain from alcohol, no contact with former President Trump, and all Second Amendments rights are suspended pending resolution, at which time they are to be placed in the custody of the U.S. Marshal's Service for transport to FCI Poughkeepsie.
I suspect all of these are counter to the wishes of the nation. Unbelievable.

The supreme court never made abortion illegal.
The supreme court never overturned Miranda rights. You are batting 0-3 so far.

The article says she "may" work for Trump. Davis says she "planned" to work for Trump. The article's speculation is truthful and his statement is not.
The supreme court never made it illegal for the EPA to regulate emissions.
"The U.S. Supreme Court gave the Environmental Protection Agency the green light to regulate greenhouse gases that are emitted from new and modified utility plants and factories on Monday. Greenhouse gases are blamed for global warming, and the court's 7-2 decision gave the EPA most of what it wanted. But in a separate 5-4 vote, the justices rejected the agency's broad assertion of regulatory power under one section of the Clean Air Act. You might call the outcome in this case the 83-percent solution. Or, as Justice Antonin Scalia put it for the majority, the EPA got "almost everything it wanted." It sought authority to regulate the large polluters responsible for 86 percent of all greenhouse gases emitted from stationary sources like utility plants and factories. Instead, it won the power to regulate 83 percent of those emissions."
I'm starting to think that given all we're seeing....the Dems *should* ditch the filibuster and make the country at least sort of closer to majority rule.
Let each party do its best. Let the Rs try to merge church and state, outlaw abortion nationally, end same-sex marriage, lower taxes for rich people, eliminate health care for poor people. Let them privatize social security and try to make the planet hotter and dirtier. Let 'em.
THen we get to vote on that. Let the Rs take off their masks and let's see what they are made of. No other country tells a party that controls the legislature and executive branch 'oh no, you can't rule the country as you wish - the minority party can stop you.'
My hunch is that making things clear for once will make the Rs a small regional party, based in the confederacy.
Well put you down as one who wants to do away with the US Constitution and for mob rule.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley told lawmakers that Kyiv could fall within 72 hours if a full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine took place, multiple congressional sources tell Fox News.

Bush2 did indeed get down to the 23% range.
Agp, you may want to lie low for a bit. I looked at 4 of your assertions and all were wrong. So maybe keep a low profile for a bit. Let everything simmer down.

The filibuster is not in the constitution. It is just a rule adopted by the senate.
But if you want to say that the majority party passing bills without the minority party helping is ‘mob rule’ well then ok you can do that.

The stock market has experienced its worst first half of the year in more than 50 years. As of June 30, the S&P 500 index — which monitors the performance of 500 large public companies — fell more than 21% since the first day...
2) Big poll out of GA favoring Warnock way over Herschel Walker
Here in my home state of GA, I've never been worried about Warnock. He should win pretty easily.
Candidates do matter and as much as Georgians loved Herschel as a football player, he's a really terrible candidate. The more they hear Herschel try to speak out on the issues, the more the voters cringe.
The other problem is that a small number of Republicans here will never vote for a black guy no matter what. That small number alone should be enough to make the difference in what is now "Purple Georgia".
If Warnock is beating Walker in the Quinnipiac GA poll by 10 points then I am a unicorn that sprinkles free gas and groceries. The "Q" is an over sampled dem poll.
This poll shows a tie:
GEORGIA: Brian Kemp leads Stacey Abrams by 6 in Governor Race, Herschel Walker is tied with Raphael Warnock in Senate Race - Walker's internal poll (R)
