The last time I did a check-in on President Trump’s popularity in November, I noted that the decline in his approval ratings had been remarkably linear.

[Edit] Changed link to point to original article instead of Newsweek as suggested (with valid reasons)

please stop linking to Newsweek:

In November 2022, the Southern Poverty Law Center reported that Newsweek had "taken a marked radical right turn by buoying extremists and promoting authoritarian leaders" since it hired conservative political activist Josh Hammer as editor-at-large. It noted the magazine's elevation of conspiracy theorists, publication of conspiracy theories about COVID-19, views such as support for a ban on all legal immigration to the United States and denying adults access to trans-affirming medical care, and failure to disclose potential conflicts of interest in the content published on Hammer's opinion section and podcast.[108]

Oh, the opinion section (which this article is not from) is somehow not even close to the biggest problem with Newsweek.
