Despite his bogus bragging that the American people love him and his policies, recent polls show that Donald Trump’s overall job approval and personal popularity are at historic lows.
How low? According to CNN data analyst and polling expert Harry Enten, Trump is the least popular president since Herbert Hoover, who was head of state when the Great Depression began in 1929.
Pointing to recent polls from Kansas, Enten noted that Trump is underwater by 15 points in the Jayhawk State, which is historically one of the most reliably red states in the nation.
“He’s way down in the basement, 15 points underwater. That’s a 20-point shift away from the president of the United States. That is 16 points less popular than any other Republican president at this point in the term this century,” Enten said.
“And in fact, while we don’t have the polling data, if you look at the national polling data, I would say that Donald Trump is probably, at this point in the term, the least popular Republican president, probably since, well, Herbert Hoover.”
Things are going so bad for the GOP in Kansas that even MAGA Kansas Sen. Roger Marshall is tied with his Democratic opponent, Adam Hamilton, with both candidates garnering 45 percent in the most recent polls conducted in the state.
Hamilton, Enten continued, could be part of a “mathematical perfect storm.”
“A historically unpopular Republican in Kansas in Donald Trump, and a historically popular Democratic Senate candidate in Adam Hamilton. That may be the equation that gets Kansas its first Democratic senator in 94 years.”

94 years! Almost a century, and we could see history take place in less than 30 days.
But wait, things are bad even for Trump, who has a 40 percent approval rating in Kansas and is clearly a drag on the incumbent Marshall.
While Donald Trump may want to be compared to Ronald Reagan and other GOP presidential luminaries, he’s actually closer to Hoover and other losers such as George W. Bush, who left office in 2009 with a tepid 34% national approval rating.
As he’s come to learn over the years, despite his lies about his past, Donald Trump is hated by nearly everyone who has ever encountered him in person or via the media. He’s a rapist, a suspected pedophile, and an all-around piece of shit.
Somewhere in the universe, Herbert Hoover is laughing.
