Trump Approval Tanks to 31% as MAGA Base Revolts Over Broken Promises | 10-20-26
Sam Bushman and Lew Moore break down the political reality the mainstream press will not touch. Trump's approval rating crashes to a record low of 31% in the Reuters/Ipsos poll, while Gallup shows Democrats taking an 11-point lead on handling America's top priorities. Lew explains why the MAGA base feels total betrayal: the Epstein files cover-up, the Iran war driving diesel to $6.50 a gallon, no mass deportations, no end to H1B visas, and broken promises on gun-free zones. Trump invokes French riots to save a Kansas Senate seat that should be safe. Newt Gingrich predicts a Republican shocker, but Lew says he is dead wrong. The most accurate pollsters in America show a D+11 generic ballot, and 39 supposedly safe Republican seats are now being defended. Plus car repossessions skyrocketing, $1,000 monthly car payments, the US Chamber of Commerce endorsing Ken Paxton, and how Trump built a coalition that could have lasted generations, then destroyed it.
