Finally, some decent poll numbers. But, what sort of mental gymnastics did the 21% perform to continue the "No new wars" President?

Oh, wait, that's not why the supported him in the first place. I get it. It was probably that thing they're always pointing at with a flat open hand, and extended arm.

21% of people would support cutting off their own toes. Poll numbers don’t get much lower in practice.

You can get 30% of the population to agree to literally anything which just goes to show they're being lazy bastards about this

Iran has been pretty consistent in their "Fuck the USA" messaging for a long time. I'm actually surprised its that low given how many of them supported his stances on Greenland and Canada.
