Trump’s Public Opinion Ratings Sinking, Now 33 Percent, And Losing Major Voting Groups!

Ronald 4 Comments

Donald Trump’s public opinion ratings are sinking, presently at 33 percent.

Major voting blocs are abandoning him, including Latinos, Asian Americans, and voters without a college degree.

Already, women voters have soured on him, and young voters of both genders are also disillusioned with him.

The rising gas prices, along with the Iran War, are causing a collapse, just as occurred 46 years ago for President Jimmy Carter, with the Iran Hostage Seizure and rising gas prices.

There could not be two Presidents more different than Carter and Trump, but they share this commonality.

More specifically, Trump has 32 percent support on Iran; 30 percent on the economy; and 23 percent on the cost of living, and 40 percent on his immigration policy.

Only in eight states does Trump have majority support—Wyoming, North Dakota, West Virginia, Oklahoma, Idaho, Tennessee, Arkansas, and South Dakota. He is underwater in all of the “Swing States”, a troubling sign for the future, as he won all of those states.

And Trump has now reached a new low in public opinion ratings, lower than right after the US Capitol Insurrection on January 6, 2021, as he was about to leave office at the end of his first term, when he had a rating of 34 percent!

The Role Of Women Likely To Decide Presidential Election Of 2024!

This author and blogger writes as Election Day has begun!

A final thought: The role of Women Voters seems likely to decide the Presidential Election of 2024.

There are more women voters than male voters, and a major gender gap has opened, according to numerous surveys.

Even in Iowa, considered a “red” state, the Des Moines Register poll surprises everyone, showing that Kamala Harris has a three point lead, primarily based on Independent Women and Women over the age of 65.

If this poll, which has been very accurate over many years, proves to be accurate, and Iowa, with its 6 electoral votes goes to Kamala Harris, it would insure a Democratic victory, as it would be sign that nearby states, including Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, would likely have similar results!

Why Kamala Harris Is Likely On The Road To Victory

admin 10 Comments

Although the polls are very close in the Presidential Election race of 2024, all signs are good that Kamala Harris is likely on the road to occupying the Oval Office as the 47th President of the United States after the November 5 election date.

Harris is ahead in most polls in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Arizona and Nevada, which if true, would give her a 287-251 Electoral College victory, also including the Second District in Nebraska.

There is no doubt that Harris will easily win the popular vote, and possibly by more than the 7 plus million vote victory of Joe Biden in 2020.

Additionally, Harris is ahead in the following categories:

Urban voters
Suburban voters
College Educated Voters
Women Voters
African American Voters
Latino Voters
Jewish Voters
Asian American Voters
Voters 18-29 Years of Age
Voters Over Age 50
Labor Union Voters
Gay And Lesbian Voters

Of course, being ahead does not mean that the percentages of each voter category are what they have been in the past, or that one would think they should be, so there is plenty of work ahead in the next 25 days to convince voters in all of the above categories to support Kamala Harris.

Donald Trump will have the edge with:

Rural Voters
Non College Educated Voters
White Male Voters
Wealthy Voters
30-50 Years of Age Voters
Religious Voters

It is clear that there are still those Americans who have not made up their minds, so non stop campaigning is essential, as this election is crucial to the survival of American democracy, the rule of law, and maintaining the US Constitution!

Kamala Harris Has Moved Into Lead In Polls, Two Months After Entrance Into Presidential Campaign

admin 13 Comments

Two months after Democrat Kamala Harris entered the Presidential race, and two weeks after the ABC Harris-Trump debate that Harris clearly won, finally she has moved into the lead in multiple polls.

Particularly among women, Harris has a commanding lead, creating what is for now at least a clear gender gap, as with men, Trump is slightly ahead or there is a even balance, depending on the poll.

Harris is also ahead among college educated voters and voters over the age of 50, while Trump is ahead among non college educated voters and voters under 50.

However, younger and first time voters (those under 30) have been inspired by Harris’s candidacy, in a way that they were not feeling toward Joe Biden.

Also, it is clear that Vice Presidential nominee Tim Walz is inspirational, and helping Harris greatly in gaining public support.

And now we are nine days away from the CBS Vice Presidential debate on Tuesday October 1 between Walz and Republican Vice Presidential nominee JD Vance, who is polling horribly, regarded as the worst VP nominee in modern times, even worse than Sarah Palin in 2008, which is quite a statement!

An Amazing Month For Democrats And Kamala Harris!

admin 11 Comments

It has been an amazing month since President Joe Biden withdrew from the Presidential Election of 2024, and promoted Vice President Kamala Harris to be the Democratic Presidential candidate.

The result has been a massive number of Americans have signed up to back Harris with their volunteer time and funds.

A half billion dollars in campaign funding has resulted, an unprecedented amount in the history of campaign finance.

Harris and Vice Presidential nominee Tim Walz have inspired millions of people, who had seemed ready to sit out the election.

Instead, they are excited about the potential for a real opportunity to reject Donald Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr, who just sold his soul to Trump, dropping out of the race and besmirching the Kennedy name.

It seems clear at this point that large numbers of African Americans and Latino Americans, along with young Generation Z voters, and particularly women, are flocking to support of Harris and Walz.

The Presidential and Vice Presidential debates that are coming up will be crucial, with a great opportunity for both Harris and Walz to demonstrate their capacity to perform well against Trump and J D Vance.

Republican Personal Attacks On Kamala Harris Backfiring!

admin 1 Comment

Donald Trump and the entire Republican Party are utilizing personal attacks on Kamala Harris, as they did on Barack Obama in 2008 and throughout his Presidency.

It is totally disgusting that Republicans mispronounce her name; say she is a “DEI” candidate; and ridicule the fact that she laughs heartily.

This is backfiring, as already, it is clear that it is alienating large numbers of women; drawing growing support of minorities who were not enthusiastic about Joe Biden running for reelection;and exciting younger voters who might have tuned out, due to “two old guys” competing in a second round running for President.

Instead, now that Donald Trump is the lone “old guy” in the Presidential race, suddenly the enthusiasm that Trump thought he had built up by picking Ohio Senator JD Vance as his running mate, has disintegrated with Vance’s attack on what he calls “cat ladies” who remain single and have no “skin in the game” of America’s future, an outrageous utterance!

The momentum of this Presidential race is changing rapidly in favor of Kamala Harris, as she aims to be the first mixed race woman President, another step forward after Barack Obama became the first African American President!

“ProLifers” And “Election Deniers” Fail Miserably In Midterm Elections 2022

Ronald 17 Comments

“Prolifers” and “Election Deniers” failed miserably in the 2022 Midterm Elections.

Most candidates for State Attorney General and Secretaries of State lost, and it looks like Kari Lake will lose the Arizona Governorship, as already has occurred to Tudor Dixon in Michigan and Doug Mastriano in Pennsylvania!

Sadly, some of these lunatics did win House seats or were reelected, but in a body of 435 members, that can be expected.

Clearly, however, the results of the Midterm Elections of 2022 are a victory for Democrats and Joe Biden, in comparison to past midterms for Democratic Presidents, going back many decades!

And young people and women came out in droves on the issue of abortion rights, and five states, including of all places, Kentucky, insured abortion rights would be part of their state constitutions!

So the predicted “Red Wave or Tsnuami” ended up as a “Red Ripple”, or as one humorist suggested, a “Ketchup Smear”!

Women And Young People Are Registering To Vote In Record Numbers, Due To Abortion Issue!

Ronald Leave a comment

Women of all ages and backgrounds, and young people in general, are registering to vote in record numbers, and the main reason is the denial of abortion rights by the Supreme Court in June.

That, plus the danger to American democracy represented by the “MAGA” Republicans, who are Fascist in orientation and empower Donald Trump, no matter what is emerging about his treason and sedition, are motivating Americans to realize that the Midterm Elections of 2022 are crucial for the future.

While the Democrats have a major problem historically, with the reality that the party out of power gains in the midterm elections that follow, this time, more than ever before, it is absolutely essential that Democrats keep control of both houses of Congress and do better in state legislatures and governorships, as otherwise, the Consitution and rule of law will be in danger!

Republicans Are A Dinosaur, Only Representing White Rural Areas, Wealthy, Bigots, In Nation Rapidly Changing

Ronald Leave a comment

The Republican Party has become a shell of its old self, and is no longer truly representative of conservative ideology.

It no longer is concerned about deficits and increase in the national debt, except when the Democratic opposition is in power.

It no longer concerned about national defense, as many of its present officeholders have attacked the military leadership for standing up to insurrectionists who attacked the US Capitol on January 6, including General Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joints Chief of Staff being criticized by the likes of Congressman Matt Gaetz of Florida, and Fox News Channel talk show hosts.

It is no longer concerned about truth and facts, as it attacks science knowledge and historical knowledge, and is unconcerned about global warming and climate change.

It is no longer concerned about racial equality and fairness, part of its founding principles under Abraham Lincoln.

It no longer appeals to millions of African Americans, Hispanic-Latino Americans, college educated suburbanites, urban areas, the middle class, women voters, and the younger generation.

They are more concerned about rural areas, where most people are whites, but can wield power due to gerrymandering, and the ability to control the Electoral College and the US Senate, where democracy has been under attack, and favors fewer voters nationally.

They are more concerned about representing those who hate immigrants, and people of color, and want to control women’s reproductive choices.

They are appealing to the extremely wealthy and powerful corporations, while working to undermine workers’ rights and labor unions.

They want to promote mind control and dictate to educators how science and history are taught.

They represent a dwindling white population stirred to fear by bigots in the Republican Party, who wish to resist the rapidly changing population which in 2045, will be a majority minority, with people of color together being the majority, and particularly so with people with Hispanic-Latino heritage.

75 Days In Office, Donald Trump Is A True Disaster, A Failure On Many Fronts!

Ronald 71 Comments

We are three quarters of the way through the first 100 Days of President Donald Trump, and he is a true disaster, a failure on so many fronts.

Trump’s public opinion ratings are the absolute worst since public opinion polling began 80 years ago for a new President.

Some Presidents had lower public opinion ratings than Trump, but it took years in office for Harry Truman, Richard Nixon, and George W. Bush to reach such low levels.

Trump has 35 percent approval against 57 percent disapproval in the latest Quinnipiac Poll, and he is lower than Barack Obama ever was.

Among men, he has 39 percent support against 51 percent disapproval.

White voters are 43 percent in favor against 48 percent negative.

Women voters are 31 percent positive against 63 percent negative.

Independent voters are 32 percent for and 57 percent against.

Non white voters are 16 percent in favor and 77 percent negative.

Democrats are 6 percent positive against 91 percent against.

On the other hand, Republicans, living in a parallel universe, are 79 percent in favor and 14 percent against.

On his personal qualities, Trump is majority negative in every area including:

61-34 that Trump is not honest

55-40 that he does not have good leadership skills

57-39 that does not care about average Americans

66-29 that he is not level headed

61-34 that he does not share their values

52 percent are embarrassed that Trump is their President, compared to 27 percent proud

On health care he gets a negative 28-64 rating, negative 61-29 on the environment, 48-41 negative on the economy, 58-35 negative on foreign policy, 49-42 negative on handling terrorism, and 57-39 negative on handling immigration issues.

Meanwhile, Republicans are negative 70-21 for their leadership in Congress, although Democrats are negative 57-34.

Speaker of the House Paul Ryan is negative 28-52 compared to Nancy Pelosi a negative 30-47 rating

Mitch McConnell is 14-47 negative while Chuck Schumer is negative 25-38.

The situation will not get better, and likely will get worse, as Trump faces foreign policy challenges, particularly North Korea most immediately.
