    Every other president had an increase. Every single one. Not even breaking a record, creating a new one by failing twice.

    And yet he has no less power… In fact I bet he has more than any other on the list thanks to the supreme court.

      Your system is so fucked. It took the Tories less time than it takes for a lettuce to go bad to oust the mad woman in the attic when she fucked our economy.

        It wouldn’t have been as easy if the Tories were in on it. The system isn’t great, but it’s only fucked because everyone involved in it is a fucking demon.

    But like, a majority decided it would be a good idea to let him have a go at breaking that record. You thought, maybe he’d be a good choice once, rapidly discovered that was not the case and then decided to try AGAIN!?

      Nah, glad they stayed home. My American ass is watching this train wreck with great glee. No amount of suffering will assuage my anger after 01/06. I want to see this goddamned country on it’s fucking knees, begging and crying and damning Republicans for the next seven generations (very Biblical of me!). Nothing short of the annihilation of the GOP and conservative “values” will do.

      I want zero chance of this cancer coming back in my children’s lifetime. One little murdered CEO will not do. I want Depression era suffering on this entire country. I want a Gotham style reckoning with kangaroo courts, dragging the rich from their bunkers. A pox on both your houses! Burn it all to the ground. (Which, BTW, is how we start a new and fertile field.)

      And I will not forgive or forget the MAGA signs. They’ve advertised who they are and what they want. When it’s over we will carve MAGA into their fucking foreheads, much like God did Cain (getting very Biblical tonight, ain’t I?).

    Truman +84 yeah sure ok. EDIT: sorry I misunderstood. I thought it was the delta after 100 days vs initial.

      I can’t imagine anything significant that happened during Truman’s first few months that would make his approval rating go up /s

        I know it would jump but how was it that low to begin with? That’s, like, insanely low it must have been below 10% Edit: sorry I misunderstood the chart

        Yeah but that would imply his approval was like 10 beforehand…no way was it that low Edit: sorry I misunderstood the chart
