Donald Trump: Master of Stonks
President Donald Trump gives him everything in the sense that “it destroys the stock market and the economy.” Despite Friday’s rally, the S&P 500 fell 410 points, and the Dow Jones industrial average reduced its 2,537 points since Trump took office. And the pain comes from him A meaningless reactionary tariff policyhe’s both Retreat of and It will double Randomly.
And the Americans are do not have happy.
a New Votes from SSRS What was implemented for CNN is finding Trump and has the lowest net approval rate for the economy. Only 44% of Americans approve how he handles the economy, and 56% disapprove. It gives him 12% points underwater.
What was his worst outcome before this on the vote? December 2017, 5 points underwater.
What’s worse for Trump is that the investigation ended fielding last Sunday. That means it was done before Shares for the past week. And Americans are largely aware of the market turmoil: 41% say that stock prices have generally fallen since Trump took office. yougov The vote was announced Tuesday amid the sale. In addition, 22% say it’s almost the same (incorrect), while 15% say it’s higher (incorrect). But many of those people may have changed their minds since Tuesday.
Of course, Trump and His lucky Former President Joe Biden is denounceing the confusion they created. And that teeth Certainly, only 44% of Americans believe Trump is more responsible for his economic situation than Biden, while 34% believe he is blaming Biden. Fresh YouGov polls For the economists. But the more he takes office and pursues this devastating trade war, the worse its numbers will be for Trump.
After all, almost half (46%) of registered voters believe Trump’s economic policies are hurting the economy. New Emerson College polls It is mainly fielded before the sale of shares. That includes 81% of Democrats, 44% of independents and 15% of Republicans. Just 28% of voters believe his policies are making the economy better, including just 55% of Republicans.
Another bad number for Trump? About one in four Republicans in Emerson’s poll believe his tariff policies will hurt the US economy.
given that Democrats and Republicans Emotions about the economy tend to suddenly sway depending on who is in the White House, and those are pretty weak for Trump.
That said, the Dow may have dropped 2,537 points, but we can’t blame Trump. He is A lot of golf these days. He must think of negative numbers as good.
Don’t rain at school. It’s going to rain.
The Republican approach to public education is as follows: Extract money from schoolafter that They claim they don’t work welljustify using it Expel more money From them. Truly, it’s the whole GOP governing philosophy, but public education seems to make it particularly difficult.
But the public wants the government to dump its funds into education.
a New yougov polls Economists have found that the majority of Americans want the federal government to spend more on low-income schools (57%), special education (52%), vocational and career training (57%), school safety (60%), teacher training (56%), and early childhood education (52%). Plus, a small share – we’re almost always talking Single Number– I hope to reduce or eliminate funds for each of them completely.
The most popular funding area is university financial support, but several Americans (38%) still want to see funding increase, with another 27% hoping to stay the same.
The majority of Republicans don’t want to cut most education funding. With the exception of university financial support, the areas that the government wants to cut are teacher training and early childhood education. But only 8% of Republicans want to see funding for people who have fallen, while another 8% want the government to end all funding for early childhood education, and 9% want to end all federal funding for teacher training.

The same poll has undoubtedly little support for Trump’s biggest education plan. Murder of the Ministry of Education. If executed, the action It could put federal funds at risk Funding for public kindergarten to high school schools, especially poor and disabled students. It also leads to disruptions in federal student loans, Pell grants and university accreditation, among many other areas.
That means that only 29% of votes will eliminate DOE. This is a figure (17%) that is reduced by almost half, if you look at people who support doing so “strongly.”
Even Republicans seem to know that by spending less money, you won’t get a better public education system.

A third of Americans see people frequently acting rudely in public (25%) or almost always (9%), while 46% say it happens occasionally.
What constitutes rudeness? Now, Pew discovers that around three in four Americans think they rarely or never will accept smoking near others or taking photos or videos of someone without asking for permission. Other types of highly unacceptable behavior include taking children to bars or other places to places that are normally for adults (69%), displaying the word cuss in signs or clothing articles (66%), and loudly cushioning (65%).
That said, Americans are quite divided on whether it’s okay to take their pets to grocery stores or to the store.
But the strangest finding in the data is that about one American thinks people have got more Be polite Since the pandemic. And honestly, given the hellish landscape we live in, it’s pretty rude to say that.
