Right before we came on air, there was a new Quinnipiac poll that was released. So Donald Trump -12 on approval in general, -11 on immigration and -16 on deportations. Well, Americans are not just giving President Donald Trump [00:00:16] low marks on his signature policies, but on his approval rating overall. And that's according to a new Quinnipiac poll that I want to get into and I want to break down. So Trump has received consistently high approval ratings on his immigration [00:00:33] policies during his second term. We've been covering that quite a bit. But it looks like we are now experiencing a turn because according to this poll, he's losing. He's losing favorability when it comes to his immigration policies. [00:00:48] It might have something to do with the Ice raids that target people in Home Depot parking lots. Day laborers are trying to make an honest living. Or when Ice goes into a church to arrest a suspected undocumented immigrant. You know, that kind of stuff kind of starts to turn people off. [00:01:04] And so Quinnipiac found that when it comes to Trump's handling of immigration issues, only 43% approve, 54% disapprove, and 3% offered no opinion. And to be honest with you, it makes me curious if polls like this [00:01:22] and the public sentiment kind of turning on Trump's immigration policies is what, incentivized him to post something today on social media about how, oh, you know, our farmers are saying that it's not good that we're doing these raids, and maybe we need to scale them back a little bit. [00:01:39] We'll see if they're actually scaled back. But Trump knows what he's doing. Stephen Miller is the one who ordered Ice to essentially target low hanging fruit. As it pertains to undocumented immigrants, it's very easy to find day laborers in a Home Depot parking lot, [00:01:55] and the reason why he ordered them to do that is because they want to increase their deportation numbers. They're in a imaginary competition with the Obama administration. It's ridiculous, but okay, let's give you some more. When it comes to Trump's handling of deportations, well, how does the public feel about that? [00:02:11] Only 40% approve, 56% disapprove, 4% offered no opinion. So his numbers on the issue of deportations were even worse, with 16% of respondents disapproving [00:02:27] than approving or 16% more, I should say. Respondents approving or disapproving than approving. And then in the Quinnipiac poll, Trump, got low scores across the board, including on issues like the economy, trade, the Russia, Ukraine war, for [00:02:43] obvious reasons, and, the Israel-Gaza war. I would like to think, for obvious reasons. I mean, he hasn't really inspired much confidence lately when it comes to preventing a war with Iran on behalf of Israel. [00:02:59] And also, let's not forget that Palestinians are getting slaughtered, at an insane clip every single day. Children, women, elderly people. You know, Americans tend to not like that. So when they see those images, I'm guessing, they're not really appreciating how the Trump administration is failing to stop the carnage. [00:03:18] And remember, he's the one who wants to make Gaza the Riviera of the Middle East, meaning he would like to steal that land from the Palestinian people and build Old hotels, a resort community. Absolutely pathetic. Now, unsurprisingly, Trump's overall approval rating came out pretty [00:03:37] low as well. 38% of Americans disapprove of the job he's doing so far. I'm sorry, 38% approve, 54% disapprove, and 8% offered no opinion. So look, Americans are paying attention. [00:03:56] That gives me a little bit of hope for the future of this country, because, quite frankly, some of the targeted raids that have been taking place across the country, the types of people who are getting arrested, the way in which they're getting arrested in front of their children, inside their [00:04:12] churches, at their workplaces. Yeah, it's it's upsetting a lot of people, not just in LA, not just in blue states, but across the country. When he said that he was going to target criminals, people believed him. And maybe, maybe that's the number one mistake ever believing [00:04:29] that this guy is telling the truth. Every time you ring the bell below, an angel gets his wings. Totally not true. But it does keep you updated on our live shows.
