Feb 25 to Feb 26 Trump approval via Elliott Morris. I always thought hardcore Trump fanbois were 30% of the electorate at most. Why is he still at just under 40%?

Feb 25 to Feb 26 Trump approval is now 37.7%.

AI generated advertising is bizarre. "If you have diabetes, Read this before it's removed!" Apparently "my diabetes" looks like cranberry sauce. And it's removable. Who knew?
