Trump’s Popularity: Polls vs. Republican Claims
Attorney General nominee Pam Bondi repeatedly emphasized President Trump’s electoral victory margin during her confirmation hearing, highlighting both the popular and electoral vote totals. This highlights Republican efforts to portray Trump as immensely popular, despite his historically low approval ratings and narrow victory margin. This strategy contrasts sharply with Trump’s actual unpopularity, which remains consistently low across multiple polls. Democrats should resist being intimidated by this tactic and instead leverage Trump’s weaknesses to effectively counter his agenda.
