President John F. Kennedy had the highest average approval rating among the presidents tracked by Gallup at roughly 70%.

So the secret to a President having a high approval rating is to get shot in the face. Guess Trump should have shifted the other way.

Sounds logical… you can’t have disapproval, if nobody is measuring it.

There’s no more pollution if the EPA is not measuring anything….

And COVID is well handled if we stop testing… hmm

Thanks, you made me feel so much better! I guess things are pretty good, after all!

Just stick your head in the sand and you no longer have anything to worry about!

Approval keeps going down, guess they wanted to stop before it hits zero or negative.

Pants shitler had a hand in this guaranteed. Maybe if the tangerine hitler didn't want to be reminded how much he sucks he should just fuck off and die already.

he should just fuck off and die already.

Everytime I see him, it always feels like he has less than a month to live. And yet he keeps living.

It's quite impressive how he can consistantly look like shit to the point of being on deaths doorstep, yet never actually die.

Henry Kissinger also looked like a bloated corpse his entire long life.

Fred lived to 93 and Mary Ann to 88. Unfortunately, that implies hes got about a decade left. He also doesn't exercise and takes a lot of drugs so maybe we'll get lucky.

Statistics has been in the decline, I’m surprised this one particular stoppage was noticed when so many others have been ignored.

For example, most people don’t know that exit polls have mostly stopped in the USA in the last few years while still used in most other countries

Another victory for Trump's fascist regime.
