6 out of ten said what? This is fine..?
It’s a bullshit poll. 10% selected “I don’t know.”
The AP-NORC poll surveyed 1,260 adults from April 17- April 21, using a probability-based method from AmeriSpeak. The margin of sampling error for the poll is plus or minus 3.9 percentage points.
He’s underwater at 54.6% unfavorable on YouGov as of five days ago.

He’s 59% unfavorable on Pew Research Center as of three days ago.
I mean, these numbers are still crazy low relatively speaking.
They’re the lowest in ~~presidential history~~ 70 years. Don’t forget, they’re not exclusively asking informed people.

I misread it as 4/10 say he's good, and still thought WTF?!
It’s because we’re literally surrounded by nazis
Could be 6 out of 10 said he should be put into the ground, it could also be 6 or if 10 said he should be the next pope.
Only 4-in-10? That's disappointing
It's why the US will fail, quickly.
How THE FUCK is it only 4 in 10?! Have they been bound, gagged, and held away from any goddamn newssource? This incontinent incompetent asshole is qualified to sit in a fucking jail cell, that's it. God this country is stupid...

No, but there are millions who basically do not consume news outside of social media. And as you see on social media, people constantly complain about having to see "politics" and many try to block anything regarding that.
Hell it happens here on Lemmy. And tbh I've thought about doing it too, shit's way too depressing right now.
I was venting... I work with people who complain that they were inconvenienced by protesters but also wont listen to why they were protesting... I feel tired and old.
Alternate title - 6 in 10 Americans don't think Trump is a terrible president.

Like it or not (I don't) the horrific immigration policies get a lot of support. Other countries are taking notice too.
Germany is considering removing German citizenship to dual passport holders if they are deemed "extremists" (but with no clear definition of what that means and how it would be determined).
Since before Trump 2, Italy has already had its own camp in Albania for immigrants and it's share of friction with judges who said these deportations were illegal.
Also "let Russia have Ukraine, why do we care" has enjoyed the sort of support people are ashamed to admit but that translates to votes to all the worst politicians.

“He’s really doing the stuff that he said he was going to do,” Tanner Bergstrom, a 29 year old Republican from Minnesota, told the Associated Press. He added that Trump is “not making a bunch of promises and getting into office and nothing happens. … I really like that. Even if it’s some stuff I don’t agree with, it’s still doing what he said he was going to do.”
He’s a Nazi, but at least he’s an honest Nazi.
Honestly, as a sane person yes I do like honest Nazis more than lying Nazis. But do you know what I like more than honest Nazis? People who aren't a Nazi, I like those way the fuck more than honest Nazis which apparently puts us in the minority in this shit hole of a county

4 in 10? Are these polls conducted in Mobile, Alabama?
They're conducted by calling people who answer the phone when an unknown number calls. So boomers.
Actually, people who answer the phone, hear a machine say it wants you to take a survey, and bother answering it..... Dems some ooooooold people
So 60% of Americans are pieces of shit. That tracks.
4 in 10 Americans have an IQ above 12.
Political tribalism is so crazy in this country. It's like Republicans and Democrats live in two different countries. I suppose in some ways they do.
The divide is actually between "people who got an education that included critical thinking skills" and people who didn't.
Ideologically speaking, dozens of studies and surveys have shown that Americans are actually not very ideologically separate - it's just that the group that can't critically think is routinely and easily manipulated into voting AGAINST their own ideology through fear.
You forgot to add that the people who are steering that narrative are literally billionaires and millionaires who are actively publishing propaganda to brainwash the masses.
And it isn't just undereducated people who fall for it. This is an effort that has been going on for 50 years. The conservative ideological points have been worked into ads, schools, and main stream television. Touting American exceptionalism while downplaying the socialist programs that have ushered in the golden era of America's general populace prosperity. Medicare, Medicaid, social security, welfare, and even agricultural subsidies are all social programs enacted with the intent to bolster a strong populace. These downplaying and demonizing efforts are being paid for in full by multimillion dollar corporate conglomerates run by millionaires and billionaires. Conservative voters in both well educated places and undereducated places have been thoroughly convinced that these programs are horrible and are "stealing money from their pockets to give to dirty immigrants and poor people who don't want to work." Reagan, over 40 years ago, coined the term "welfare queen" which is the single dumbest term in the history of the world. No one living on welfare is living "like a queen". And yet the term still gets airtime and ink in not only conservative rags but moderately liberal spaces as well.

Calling hIm "terrible," undersells it. He is, by all objective measure, the most prolific traitor in American history, literally worse than all other American traitors COMBINED.
He was already firmly established by historians as the worst president in American history following his first term, despite historians usually wishing to wait a decade before making their assessment. He was such a terrible president in his first term, that they didnt have to wait for his legacy to settle. Now he is only digging the hole of his legacy even deeper.
So 6 in 10 Americans are morons? That tracks.
The world is full of dumb people shocker
44% is not sinking. What has that number moved, 1.3%?
How is it only 4 in 10?
Oh wait, maybe the other options were Horrible and stinking, which both received 3 votes.
So what I'm hearing is democrats think he's trash, MAGAts still love his soggy ass, and the twats who didn't bother to vote are not bothering with this poll
(Also fuck those guys the most. This is as much your fault as the MAGAts)
He's getting a masterclass in negotiation from Xi and I'm here for it.
Hands down, the worst president, twice.
6 in ten Americans are complete imbeciles I guess
And the other six? racist illiterate scumbags.
Could be a sampling bias. If you take 100 people at random from each state, the results would favor Trump. But 100 people is a larger percentage of red states than it is of blue states.
If you reword it as "4 out of 10 square miles think Trump is a bad president", it makes more sense, if you compare it to a political alignment map.
Hold on, they're still asking the other 6. The last one is a dentist.
Was this written by AI?
Forty-two percent of Independents say Trump has the wrong priorities, 30 percent say an even mix, 9 percent believe he has the wrong priorities and 19 percent don’t know.

6 in 10 Americans are terrible.
So 44% think he's doing terribly, 21% are an even mix, 10% don't know. That's 75%. One can only assume that the remaining 25% think he's doing a great job. I also imagine that there is an element of the shy conservative in these responses so the actual figure is probably like 30-40% think he's doing pretty good.

These are the 4 in 10 who didn't vote then.
So looking over these numbers I have many questions, and I wish they had a breakdown of what people sell reported as instead of just the overall number of people surveyed, because I think was a good number of people trying to skew things (I hope at least - or else I really don't understand).
Like comparing the 2 charts below for example:
- 11% of Dems found Trump favorable
- 9% of Dems found JD favorable (ouch for JD "couch fucker" Vance being 2 points behind a guy that is a convicted rapist and felon, and currently running the country into the ground)
- 17% of Dems found RFK Jr. favorable (the guy pushing for sick kids and hurting anyone requiring anything in the proximity of mental health)
- So overall in the 1st chart 18% think Trump is doing great, but then somehow 39% have a favorable opinion of him?
- And overall in the 1st chart 39% think Trump is doing a horrible job, but 57% have an unfavorable opinion of him overall.
So despite 39% of those surveyed thinking Trump is great, only 18% of them think he is doing great. While 57% of people surveyed think unfavorable of Trump, while only 39% think he is doing a horrible job.
