According to a new AP poll, about two-thirds of Americans have grown exhausted following Donald Trump’s election and are now limiting their consumption of political media.

Summary

A new AP poll reveals widespread political fatigue among Americans, with two-thirds limiting political media consumption post-Trump’s election.

Viewership on CNN and MSNBC has plummeted, with declines of 35-54%, as many Democrats and independents step away from politics.

In contrast, Fox News has seen a 12% ratings surge, dominating cable news.

The trend mirrors post-election slumps in previous cycles, though the erosion is sharper this year.

Some suggest focusing less on Trump and more on broader issues to re-engage disenchanted audiences.

    Precisely. My only fear is the people who need the biggest punch in the face won’t get it. Or will be too stupid to understand it.

      This is why Faux viewership surged. They’ll need an outlet to explain how the punch in the face was really because of Kamala’s cackle. Or Hillary’s cankles. Or because of that one trans they heard about having any sort of dignity…

      They’ll get their metaphorical face punch and blame Biden, Harris, Hillary, Obama, and/or whoever else is the manufactured villain du jour
