Summary

Donald Trump has the lowest approval rating of any newly elected U.S. president since World War II, except for himself in 2017.

While his immigration policies and government downsizing have support, controversial moves—like ending birthright citizenship and renaming the Gulf of Mexico—face strong opposition.

Economic concerns, particularly rising prices, remain a major issue for voters.

Analysts say Trump’s popularity will likely hinge on broader economic and immigration policies, with potential political consequences for Republicans in the 2026 elections.

    My argument is that voting makes you a voter, including the 2020 general election and midterms.

    Why are you biting the bullet in such a silly situation. They were politically active, besides voting also making donations to political parties. People who are invested in the political process do more.

      So your argument is that someone who used to vote should still count as a “voter” even if they didn’t vote last year?

        If someone votes in 2020, then tries to off a candidate in 2024 and dies before they can vote in 2024, absolutely they are a voter.

        Your argument is that someone who is politically active up until their death and doesn’t pull a Jesus to vote after death is a nonvoter?

            No, a voter is some who voted.

            To you, nonvoter includes people who voted. You’re just a version of chatGPT with no conscious awareness prior to the year 2024.

              No, a voter is some who voted.

              Then how do you describe someome who didn’t vote in 2024?

              To you, nonvoter includes people who voted.

              Correct, the category of nonvoters includes former voters who didn’t vote this time. Seems pretty straightforward to me.

                Nonvoters are people who choose not to vote, not people prevented from voting by being in jail or dead. You think it’s straightforward because you’re an LLM running on an OG Raspberry Pi.

                    Interesting because discouraging people from voting also helps the right wing, so you’re pretty busy actively benefiting fascists in at least one way.
