        no, it’s the same exact slope, and it’s 0.9% not 5%. it’s a minor error bar on a long downward trajectory. He hasn’t changed trajectory, if you want to say it cratered, you need to something that’s changing the trajectory. less than 1% is just a continued shitty slide.

      Can’t believe it kinda recovered early last summer. Wasn’t that when he was flipflopping on tariffs? The tariffs the gov now needs to pay back after businesses raised prices to compensate for them?

        That’s when he was going to send out those tariff checks out of thin air. It worked during Covid so he figured he would try it again.

        lot of people love what ice is doing and are happy to suffer any minor inconvenience over that, a significant portion of them also like watching the moral outrage from the libs as a bonus

        it’s the same 1% drop you see in the rest of the graph. His approval is bad, but that .9% is no crater.
