Donald Trump demands investigations into negative approval rating polls
What a giant mango baby
I looked for the link to The Onion. I think I audibly sighed when I didn't find it.
You didn't eat the onion, you regurgitated one
The link does go to Newsweek, though, which is not exactly the most credible source either....
President Donald Trump has said pollsters that have shown his approval ratings sliding in recent weeks should be investigated for "election fraud."
Responding to the polls, Trump wrote on Truth Social on Monday: "They are negative criminals who apologize to their subscribers and readers after I win elections big, much bigger than their polls showed I would win, loose a lot of credibility, and then go on cheating and lying for the next cycle, only worse."
It's not an election, and I hurt myself reading that deeply moronic quote. How is this man in charge of anything?

I think of Donald Trump and Elon Musk, masters of aimlessness, crisis and noise, firing all those experienced people who have been quietly and competently managing government departments for years or decades. This only looks like progress to fools.
That was really a master class, I haven't seen one of those in awhile. He used the story technique to make you feel dumb for falling for these busy looking leaders. It was dramatic in comparison. I'm seriously impressed.
So you're completely correct. Progressives and Democrats, in general, are boring. Magas go around with coal burning trucks, racist outbursts, laws that usually go after the "other." How do the progressives and democrats go after that sweet, sweet, comparison story without looking like dipshits.
Great video, thanks for posting.
after I win elections big, much bigger than their polls showed I would win, loose a lot of credibility, and then go on cheating and lying for the next cycle, only worse.
Did he admit to lying and cheating there?
Not sure whether you're joking, but no, the subject of "loose [sic] a lot of credibility, and then go on cheating and lying" is "They" from the beginning of the sentence. Surprisingly, the whole thing hangs together grammatically.
"negative criminals", lol.
“STOP BREAKING THE LAW, ASS HOLE”
Does Liar Liar hold up? I used to love that movie
It holds up. I see (and have used) that quote regularly and everyone seems to know it.
I have investigated. My conclusion is: Your low approval rating is because you are a toad.

I don't think Trump ever developed a theory of mind when he was a child.
"Theory of Mind" is the developmental change where you realize that other people know things that you don't know, and you know things that other people don't know. It usually shows up before you turn five, kind of concurrent with a solid grasp on language. But I don't think he ever got it.
So he doesn't understand how people could know words that he doesn't know ("groceries"), he doesn't understand how people could understand the importance of things he doesn't understand the importance of (pretty much every government agency), he doesn't see any reason for social supports (because, see, he doesn't need them). And, paired with his obvious narcissism, since he loves himself, he is psychologically unable to conceive of the idea that other people could exist who don't love him.
Under this framework, he can never be wrong, because he literally knows all the things (the hurricane path map). He can never have done anything wrong, because he knows what's best. And he can never have broken any promises, because he knew what would happen and made the choice on purpose.
But he's also been around for long enough to prove all of that untrue, so he's had to carve out little exceptions for himself: specifically, that (1) everyone who doesn't like him isn't really a person, they're actually evil and bad and nobody likes them (because he doesn't); (2) everyone who knows something he doesn't is either keeping secrets or a super-genius, depending on whether he likes that thing or not; and (3) when his actions have negative consequences that actually affect him, it's because of one of those evil not-people plotting against him.
So, anyway, when you call Trump a toddler, you're actually giving him a few extra years of credit that he hasn't earned.
"walk at one, talk at two" indicates that "toddler" is correct
I mean, it depends on whether you mean "can say some words" or "can actually carry on a conversation." The speech thing can vary pretty widely; I've got an 8-year-old who was speaking in complete sentences by, like, 20 months, and an almost-3-year-old who was speech delayed and is really only just grasping the idea of expressing his preferences to us with words. Our other two were in between those two extremes.
You're not wrong, though. In any case, he is not fully-developed as a human adult.
Next: Trump asks FBI to discover who shit in his pants
I bet it's the same millionaire paying off the protestors! Elon will get him one day..
The call was coming from inside the house.
"Emperor demands to be told he is wearing clothes"
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I understand that Trump might be confused about this. He isn't doing anything that he didn't specifically say he would do when he was asking for people's votes. They loved him before the election. They loved voting for him. I can understand why he might not believe that suddenly they don't like him. Somewhat the same for Musk except he started crashing back with the purchase of Twitter so he should have had time to understand that he was driving his fans away the further right-psycho he got.
He isn’t doing anything that he didn’t specifically say he would do when he was asking for people’s votes. They loved him before the election. They loved voting for him. I can understand why he might not believe that suddenly they don’t like him.
This is what happens when you steal an election
The data behind that conclusion is compelling to those who understand both statistics and technology. Most of the US Congress has repeatedly shown that they have neither the capacity nor the inclination to understand either.
One of the rhetorically effective things about his campaign messaging was how broad and vague it was. Pundits, podcasters, influencers, and those manipulating the algorithms of social media, took that messaging, isolated parts of it and recontextualized those parts for specific audiences.
So while he may have assumed he was being very clear about what he was going to do, the messaging many of his voters got was totally detached from his intentions.
A good example of this is people who thought that the tariffs would somehow be a tax levied on foreign countries, not a sales tax on imported goods. Or those who thought the tariffs would be targeted at specific goods categories to benefit their particular industry, not a blanket tariff that impacts their upstream supply chain.
He told his subordinate on the campaign to get voters to vote for him, he assumed that meant convince them he was right, but that was impossible, the only ones that could get him the numbers he liked were the ones who just twisted what he said till people agreed with it.
Trump has said pollsters that have shown his approval ratings sliding in recent weeks should be investigated for "election fraud."
He's going to run for a third term. That's what this means. Buckle up, y'all. We're in for yet another Constitutional crisis that the Democrats will do exactly nothing about.
Strongly worded letters will be written, perhaps sent!
But not too strongly worded, that would just be rude, must maintain decorum.
Definitely not something a dictator does right?
"Any approval rating that isn't 100% is a punishable offense! All hail Dear Leader!"
"Election fraud".... how? A) Reporting facts of public opinion is never illegal. B) Election fraud comes in 3 forms, as far as I know. 1. Campaign finance fraud. 2. Civil rights violations. 3. Voting/ballot fraud. This is clearly none of these. C) There is no Election going on. The current administration has only existed for 3 months. We are about as far from an election while being far enough into an administration to hold a valid opinion on it as possible. D) YOU CANNOT RUN FOR PRESIDENT AGAIN YOU FUCKING RUBE! I don't give a fuck what your ethically void legal team of Heritage Foundation ideolgues tells you. They are full of shit.
A) Reporting facts of public opinion is never illegal.
So far. If the crybaby gets what he wants, it will be.
D) YOU CANNOT RUN FOR PRESIDENT AGAIN YOU FUCKING RUBE!
Alas, when has the constitution actually stopped him? His supporters fully support this blantantly corrupt crap, and he's even selling "Trump 2028" merch.

Yes, but for him to actually run, he needs to be on the ballot. Elections are run by the states. He would need enough states to recognize his legal right to run again to even be on their ballots. Then he would have to win any number of court challenges to his being allowed. And then he would have to actually win. And then he would have to be confirmed by Congress. I'm sure he'll do anything he can to game the system, but I don't think he'll make it past all of those stopgaps. More than likely, if he gets a third term, it will not be through any amount of legitimate means. He'll try to skip elections entirely, is my bet.
The call is coming from inside the house.
why did the USA elect an edgelord ?
Watch the video that u/tburkhol posted in this thread. It's actually quite enlightening on this topic.
First Past the Post voting artificially limiting the competition in the electoral process.
Oh I thought this was The Onion for a second, but apparently it's real. I mean, obviously.
We've got zionists running through the streets of New York assaulting people they perceive to be possibly arab, a mayor who is only there because trump pardoned him for his crimes, and trump, who "demands" the polls show him whatever he wants to see. It just gets crazier, stupider, and more corrupt every day, and we are only 2/48ths of the way to trump being out of office, assuming he leaves peacefully. He needs to be impeached.
More signaling that he plans to ignore the constitution and try to run again in 2028, as if anyone is surprised. (I think we'll mostly be surprised if he makes it to 2028)
Run? He won't need to run, he'll be Führer by then.
Nah. Someone gon catch him slippin.
Whiny bitch doesn't understand no one likes him
I think he does understand and is bitter Bobby, for it. A long time ago, I read an article that said he'd tried to elbow his way into Palm Beach society and was rebuffed as a loud, obnoxious, vulgar buffoon, came back when he had more money, bought Mar-a-Lago and was this time accepted. Not because of grace, social skills or any redeeming quality but money, meaning he probably very well understands he would have no friends, no loyalty, if he hadn't the means to buy these things, while failing to understand he isn't bright, funny, or valuable as anything other than a pawn. And he's probably very lonely -- money is a cold mistress, and fickle, too. I think he very well understands the consequences of slipping from money, power and usefulness, which is exactly why he fights so hard to keep these things. It isn't because he overvalues himself, but because he very much undervalues himself, thereby placing emphasis and desperate hope on the public, but very false image he's cultivated, with a lot of help from outside entities with much to gain from doing so. Otherwise he would be facing himself in the stark light of what way deep down, the subconscious knows - he's spent his time, money and energy on things everyone has told him_should_ make him happy, and absolutely nothing on what could make him happy, which is being a person he can live with, should distractions fade away.
Let's let the value judgement here be, do we really want the worst parts of ourselves leading us, individually or collectively? Because what we choose individually leads to the outcome.
What a fucking baby
His diaper demands to be changed!
Gold diaper...
Let's get that chilling effect going on pollsters early, so by the time 2028 rolls around, nobody will be able to have any idea about any candidates actual popularity.
Reminder: he has sued over negative polls in the past.
If you ask me it's one part intimidation and one part delusional (can't fathom people don't like him).
It can also be a tactic to keep his followers at bay who might see those numbers and question his work. I know, it seems a stretch, but somewhere out there are a few people every day who go, "hey...wait a minute". It's easy management, just suggestions from him that the polls are wrong ease any wandering minds.
I don't know how, but on any of these polls you have people respond they either are unsure/undecided/need more information. Low information voters unfortunately can make or break a close election.
Of course a great way to counter a bad poll is to try and NOT suck, but Trump has always used the legal system to try and get what he wants. Also the irony of all his gusto about election interference is that he lost an election interference case (where he did the interference), but then was allowed to run the clock out before he was sentenced.
It's always projection!
Anything that Trump doesn't like is either done by paid protesters or considered political acts.
But his cultists will accuse anyone else of being brainwashed.
Yeah he is not wounded no he is very not immature and broken sad excuse for a person that has zero insecurities
He knows he's tanking. This is just a way to distract the dumbass base that believes in flat earth and unicorns.
BWAHAHAHHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHHHAAHAHAHHAH! heh.
Article says Trump believes he has a 99.9% approval rating on the border issues......
He is delusional
Shhh don’t tell him let him figure it out for himself and then lie about it.
Makes demand from his golf course, where he has spent approximately 80% of his time since inauguration, on taxpayers’ dime.
My wife told me last week that she read that Trump is on track to spend $300 million on golf trips over the next 3 and a half years.
Investigators can save a lot of time by just handing him a mirror
Smells like BITCH to me.
What a clown.
Please show some respect, that's not fair to clowns
Should someone tell him the election is over?
That election, yes. But what about second election? (Okay, third election. And yes he's not allowed to do that, I'll throw it on the pile)
Of course he does.
Christ, I miss the short reprieve of 4 years where I didn't have to concern myself with what this asshat was emoting about.
I thought Kevin Durant was the softest human on the planet. I was completely wrong.
This guy is such a clown...it's really unbelievable...what a disgrace to the USA.
Stop the count!
Numbers are illegal!
It’s always https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DARVO
This timeline has brain damage.
How is this real life?
Perhaps he ought to investigate how to liberate his assmouth from putin’s schlong.
Might know that would stick him lol
“He said, into a mirror.”
MORE PROOF that Donald Trump is a YOUNG, SPRY, STRONG, MENTALLY ACUTE NOT Snowflake!
The beatings will continue until morale improves
I've done everything wrong, why don't they love me?
Right because that is definetly a priority right now lol. Investigate his aproval rates. Nothing is more important! It's the greatest order of importance. Lunatic.
🤣
Lmao!
Hahahahaha 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Trump = Eggshell vagina.
(No genderphobe.)
Someone needs to transvestigate this "man" have you heard how sassy this bitch talks? ...and the girl is so insecure!
