“President Donald Trump is in trouble and he knows it: He promised ‘no more foreign wars’, but started a war with Iran that he has lost. He promised to tame inflation, but tariffs and his war of choice have made it worse. He promised to deport only the ‘worst of the worst’ illegal immigrants. But Immigration and Customs Enforcement has terrorized American cities as agents sometimes arrested, detained, wounded, or killed US citizens. He promised to make the United States the most respected country in the world, but he has destroyed America’s reputation and alienated its allies. He calls himself the best president in history, but his approval rating has dropped to the mid-30s — his lowest ever and approaching President Richard Nixon’s final approval rating of 24% shortly before his resignation in 1974.” (09/26/26)
