Not entirely accurate. Maybe in some areas. By me, people that voted for this are having buyers remorse. Even the dumb ones.

I don't think there's any way they could lower my rating. 2 tours, purple heart, very documented service connection for everything I have claimed (PTSD, Spinal injury, tinnitus, hearing loss, and mTBI). If they reduce anything I have plenty more ammo lol.

Lol my brother in christ, I probably had close to 10 concussions during both my deployments, one of them bad enough to knock me out. Got a purple heart for that one. This dude is a fucking idiot and a baby.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's character arc is fucking blowing my mind rn. I always hypothesized that she was actually a sane/rational person who was putting on a show for her target demographic and honestly it tracks. Marjorie was loud. Marjorie wanted to touch the stove. But after she touched it...

Is hell freezing over?

Marjorie Taylor Greene: “I’m not some sort of blind slave to the president, and I don’t think anyone should be.”

“I serve in Congress. We’re a separate branch of the government, and I’m not elected by the president.”

Once a loyal foot soldier for Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene is increasingly bucking her party

From the Gaza war to the Epstein files to the government shutdown, the MAGA-aligned congresswoman has grown critical of her fellow Republicans.

Exercise your 1A SAFELY. Utilize faraday bags for your phones. Do not take them out and use them at the protest, or on your way to and from the protest. Stick together with your crew. Help one another. Be loud, and be peaceful.

Another thing, I live in a really purple area. It's about a 50/50 split. In the months between the election and inauguration, there were Trump flags everywhere. Now there's hardly any. Nobody is wearing any Trump shirts or driving w their flags all over their trucks. Everybody is pretty pissed tbh.

Those guys look fucking terrified lol. Holy shit. The looks on their faces tell a story.

True. Another thing to consider is: When it comes down to <50% of FOX news viewers supporting the president, that's pretty bad. No matter how you slice it.

Ya man, with cold rain this close to harvest you are going to be fighting bud rot. I'd take a gander w your loop/lens and see if the trichomes are close to finishing. Its just about chop time!

Polls like Rasmussen are skewed hopelessly to the right. They throw the average off. There are Newsmax polls conducted that day Trump has a 75%+ approval rating, fwiw.

Oh man, wouldn't that be nice if the Democratic party were competent? Seems like they could take advantage of this in so many races around the country. But I doubt they will. Lol

I don't think we will make it out of October before they declare martial law. Sorry.

The drops are, absolutely, there. This was updated 3 hours ago. In 24 hours my state has gone from -3 to -5.5% approval. My state voted for him by a huge margin.

His policies are extremely unpopular.

Depends on which polls are referenced. There are extremely conservative biased polls that they are releasing to mitigate the damage from other polls. People are becoming disillusioned and definitely have buyers remorse. There are definitely some cracks forming in his base.
