Trump's approval plunges into the 20s, and Republicans give up
Whatever truths we can glean from Trump's trainwreck of a second term,
it is clear the MAGA base is now deserting him in record numbers.

NBC says his approval is at 41%. Interesting.
It *is* interesting and it mirrors Trump's MO perfectly: so
confusion.
Google confirms estimates of 38% to 40% but acknowledges it might be
as low as 35%.
Other polls have indicated as low as 34%.
Imo, the 29% poll is an outlier that can be disregarded for now.
No matter how you slice it, he's lost two thirds of the electorate.
That's veto proof.
I noticed the Today show aired a clip of Xi and Trump (in overcoat
and gloves [in 60-degree weather]), with Trump saluting at...
something.
But they stopped short of the moment where a bomber flew over, and
Trump flinched and grimaced, the only one to do so.
Probably getting a lotta yuks on Chinese media.
From the South China Morning Post:

Saw that. As the approaching plane gets louder, he screws up his face
and, breaking salute, looks up for the plane. Xi just stands there
calmly.
Trump would screw up a soup sandwich.
PS 2026 G20 Miami Summit will take place from December 14u15, 2026,
at the Trump National Doral Miami in Florida.
Will Putin attend?
