Are people already regretting their choice?

The sandwich guy topic seems to be a derail to the subject of the thread. Unless sandwich guy used to be Trump supporter.

I thought the saying was always that you could get a grand jury to indict a sandwich??

That's a ham sandwich. NBC news reports the offending sandwich in this case was salami. I don't think it was on a hard roll. Had it been a hard roll, he definitely would have been indicted.

That makes sense. His throw and aim was not that of someone who was ham-handed.

I just reported this post for obvious reasons that require a permanent ban.

Since when do we stay on topic in any thread?

But, sort of on topic. I assume that a lot of Trumpers are regretting their choice because I read one of the most recent polls gave him a 37% rating. That's still way too high imo, but it does appear as if he's lost a lot of his former supporters. I would think that only people who suffer from severe cognitive decline or who were Newsmax viewers would approve of Trump at this point.

Quinnipiac University Poll​

  • 37% approve
  • 55% disapprove
Quinnipiac University's most recent polling has the lowest approval rating for the Republican president among the bunch, slipping three points since its last survey conducted in mid-July.

Since the survey's polling at the start of Trump's second term in January, positive opinions of his job performance have dropped nine points, while disapproval rates are up 12 points.

The article says that the average is about 43%, but I don't want to believe it's that high.

I saw that yesterday. Underwater bigly on all the major issues.

And Quinnipiac is usually the most favorable polling organization to Trump.

But ... Ouch! This inspired me to click over to Nate Silver's synopsis of ten recent polls. I'm sincerely sorry to "rain on the parade."

Polls are classified by voter type; in increasing order of utility these are
* A - adults
* RV - registered voters
* LV - likely voters

The net approvals by voter-type of poll are (raw results):
A: -8, -15, -15, -14, -21 // Average == -15
RV: -18, -2 // Average == -10
LV: -1, -4, +10 // Average == +2

The net approvals by voter-type of poll are (with Silver's adjustments):
A: -4, -13, -12, -11, -17 // Average == - 11
RV: -15, -5, // Average == -10
LV: -6, -5, +4 // Average == -2

It appears that many of those disapproving of Trump are unlikely to vote, or even not registered to vote.
Registering them and convincing them to vote must be a high priority.

Trump has screwed the farmers.

Gosh, I am so surprised.

After he screwed literally everybody he has ever had any kind of dealings with in his entire life, I assumed that the farmers would be different.

Oh, wait, no I didn't. And nor did anyone else who has been paying even the most minimal amount of attention.

For reasons that are bewildering to me farmers voted for Trump by huge percentages. Any farmer who might have thought about it for a moment should have known that tariffs, trade wars, and rounding up migrant workers for deportation would spell bad news for farmers. But they didn't think I guess.

And to make things worse Trump killed USAid which used to buy tons of US grown crops to send as food aid. The federal government has quit that too. Trump sure knows how to screw people.

I guess farmers expected Trump would only screw other people like liberals and brown people and people whose sexuality doesn't square with the King James version.
 
I don't really understand why farmers are so convinced that they owe any sort of loyalty to the Republican Party, when the reality is they get completely shafted every time a Republican is in the White House, and have since the Civil War. The Republicans are, and have always been, the party of big industry insiders and their lobbyist cronies, not a true friend to the family farmer. Even within the narrow scope of agriculture specifically, they will always take the side of monopoly, grift, worker abuse, destruction of nature, natural disaster related carpetbagging, and periodic colonizations of the countryside by city agribusiness giants. I'm from farm country myself and see this play out over and over. Why are they so loyal to a Party that only gives insincere lip service to their concerns?

Perhaps guns and the Bible make the difference.
 
I was just driving behind a Honda Odyssey with a “Don’t Tread on Me” sticker and a patriot flag that said “We’ve had enough”. Soccer Dad driving the fam to “School of Rock” at the community theater.

Had enough of what? I guess I’d have to consume OAN and News Max to know.

Seems Mr, minivan is doing okay. He hates the demoshits though.

I just read the other day, that orange juice, even the fresh squeezed stuff isn't good for us due to the sugar content, but over the past few months, Mr. Sohy and I have become addicted to having a glass of fresh squeezed orange juice every morning. I'm not giving up my orange juice! Oh no. We're off topic again.

The fresh squeezed orange juice not being good for you is news to me. :unsure: Why would that be the case?

In any case, I just eat oranges, and I don’t think anyone can fault the health benefits of oranges.
 
Oh, the sugar content. Well, is there more sugar in fresh squeezed orange juice than in oranges?
