https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/warning-signs-for-trump-in-new-polling/ar-AA1zsfmk?cvid=2d8120ca332142d38789522374505795&ei=12

 

Two new polls from CNN/SSRS and The Washington Post/Ipsos show the GOP president’s approval rating underwater (47-52 in the CNN poll, 45-53 in the Post), a shift from polling earlier this year that found voters roughly divided on him, with some surveys even showing a positive approval rating.

 

In the Post survey, for example, 58 percent of respondents opposed laying off large numbers of federal workers. And Musk, Trump’s most high-profile adviser, is not getting good marks either: Just 34 percent of respondents in the Post poll approved of Musk’s role in the federal government, while 54 percent of respondents in the CNN poll said it was bad for Trump to have given the SpaceX CEO a prominent role in his administration.

 

Is the hype of the orange buffoon's second term slowly starting to wear off? (I certainly hope so 🤞)

 

Granted, it's only been 4 weeks or so, but still - if it's like this now, what's it going to be like this time next year? Will he have made any difference on bringing down prices? I seem to recall him campaigning on this, yet he's done next-to-nothing about it.

The NY Times - ‘Long Live the King’: Trump Likens Himself to Royalty on Truth Social

 

19 Feb 2025

 


President Trump is famous for his love of everything gold and other trappings that connote royalty, whether it be large military parades or extravagant inaugural balls.

 

But in a post on his social media platform Truth Social on Wednesday, Mr. Trump went a step further, likening himself to a king as he celebrated his administration’s move to kill New York City’s congestion pricing program.

 

“CONGESTION PRICING IS DEAD. Manhattan, and all of New York, is SAVED,” he wrote. “LONG LIVE THE KING!”

 

The White House then reinforced the message, recirculating it on Instagram and X with an illustration of Mr. Trump wearing a crown on a magazine cover resembling Time, but called Trump.

Stuff - https://www.stuff.co.nz/world-news/360589152/trump-wants-know-if-theres-gold-fort-knox-there

 

21 Feb 2025

 

 

Musk, the world's richest man, who was travelling with the Republican president aboard Air Force One, has spent days posting about this issue.

 

“Who is confirming that gold wasn’t stolen from Fort Knox?” he wrote Monday. “Maybe it’s there, maybe it’s not.”

 

 

I was wondering how long it would take him to get around to paying Fort Knox a visit. "Yeah guys just ignore all these trucks I've bought with me that arrived empty but are now obviously a lot heavier leaving."

As Trump would say "sad."

Looks like Time magazine's real cover got under his very thin skin.



By the way, the New York congestion plan to reduce traffic and raise funds for New York's public transport was he recently axed will lead to loss of millions in revenue for the city.

"Traffic is way down because people can't come into Manhattan and it's only going to get worse." And of course followed up with another lie: "People don't know about it until they get the bill."

So Elon Musk is now the world richest Sovcit - Auditor ?

 

Expect and explosion in Muskvites being pests demanding to inspect everything everywhere.
Including Peter Thiels paradise New Zealand, once we are running the place the way he wants.
'Luxon, Seymour I put you in charge now get the job done' 

 

Fort Knox, well Trump as King, its all Trumps to do what he will with it.
So if Trump wants Elon 'or anyone else' to truck it off.
Its not stealing.

 

Mostly its just Musk's redirection,
Oh look over there another stupid conspiracy to study while your democracy disappears.

Whilst the difficult we can do immediately, the impossible takes a bit longer. However, miracles you will have to wait for.

Severe measles outbreak in rural Texas now up to 58:

 

USA Today:The Texas Department of State Health Services announced Tuesday that confirmed infections were up to 58, mostly in children. All but four case involve unvaccinated people or people with unknown vaccination status, and most occurred in far West Texas in Gaines County, which has a 17.62% rate of vaccine exemptions in K-12 students, according to 2023-2024 state data.

 

Plus nine cases in neighboring New Mexico state. RFK Jr was confirmed as Trump's secretary of health last week. It's not looking good.
