I’m a New Yorker, so let me give you my perspective.
Donald Trump fucked over everyone in New York. He called for the lynching of some young Black men, and then refused to admit he was wrong when they were all exonerated. He pissed off the Manhattan elites when he razed a famous landmark after promising to preserve it. He enraged the art world when he built an ugly hotel in SoHo. He personally destroyed a great summer football league. He was seen eating pizza with a knife and fork.
There will always be a portion of the population that goes fascist during economic decay, the sort of decay that is inevitable with capitalism. They will be throughly propagandized and may never wake up and see the light of reason. A liberal democracy cannot stop a determined fascist movement with capitalist backing with conventional means. They will use and abuse existing political levers to gain total power.
The only thing that will stop them is turning the tables on them via mass resistance of those who have gained class consciousness. They will need to be defeated and suppressed, and barred from having any further political power or platform to spread their toxic ideas.
Trumps support rate is around 33% in most polls, so it seems there’s a 30-35% of the population who just hate good things and support shitty evil instead.
The 0.5% who have a pied-à-terre worth over $5 million, and the 30.5% who are just temporarily cash-constrained but surely will be buying a pied-à-terre worth over $5 million in the very near future.
Why the hell is it so low. I’ve heard nothing but good news
It’s almost impossible to get over 60% of Americans to agree on anything.
69% approval rating in the US is probably the equivalent of high 80s or low 90s in most of the world.
I hear Kim Jong Un has over 90% approval rating. Who else?
You mean 100%
loud agony and gun noises in the background
Soo, i was saying, what’s your stance on our lord and savior Kim Jong Un?

Despite these many insults to the commonwealth, he still got votes.

It might also have to do with the authoritarian personality types YouTube
All those cops who live on Staten Island would be part of it, presumably
Screaming “hold the neighborhood, boys!” even as they themselves benefit
Not if they are dinousaurs, damn stegron…

That is the 30% that hasn’t personally felt the negative consequences of trump strongly enough to change their minds.
Some people actually like exploiting poor people and dislike politicians that make it difficult for them.
Republican base that only approves of an R next to their name, regardless of literally anything.
Probably the same people who downvoted the posts celebrating Dolly Parton yesterday. Some people are just negative.
