Trump’s approval rating is stuck in the 30s, which means that a significant number of Americans who voted for Donald Trump last year are at least starting to regret their choice.
Sadly, many Americans in the same situation, who voted for Trump, can’t connect the President’s policies with their own sufferings. For instance, they don’t connect that while they want and need a higher minimum wage, the Republicans don’t—and Trump even suggested getting rid of it altogether.
He promised farmers that his desire to renegotiate NAFTA would help farms. But now, the agriculture groups from red states all across the heartland are starting to fight for NAFTA and consider it crucial to their industry.
Though they were warned about potentially losing most of the $17.9 billion in products exported to Mexico, the agricultural lobby was silent on president’s NAFTA plans. They believed that the Trump administration would work out some kind settlement on aspects of NAFTA, but leave agriculture alone.
But just like many other groups, they’re realizing that voting Trump might not have been in their best interests. the president is threatening to withdraw from the deal entirely, and farming groups are finding their pleas to save the trade agreement falling on deaf ears.
President Trump is making farmers, one of the groups he claims were “forgotten,” fight for their livelihoods. If this is what Trump is doing to the people he remembers, maybe people are better off forgotten.
Ah screw these losers. LET THEM BURN. They should have know better but choice racism instead. Cry albino chimps cry.
Hindsight is 20/20. I certainly hope they see the light of day now. We are ALL suffering for their mistake!
two of them AREN’T white. idiocy in all groups.
The vast majority of those who voted for Trump are WHITE. They aren’t talking just about this focus group but about TRUMP voters.
You trump voters were too angry and racist to see he was a lying blowhard. You got what you deserve and voted for,unfortunately we all got screwed over too. Thanks asshats.
They would not listen there are some still not listening but they are getting just what deserve and gonna get more bad news they was told about trump but they was to stupid to listen now who cares about how you feel trump didn’t care in the first place.
The rest of the world shuns the USA as a “Failed Democracy”. Trump is not the problem. It is the 50% of Americans too lazy to get off their fat bums and vote.
It’s really hard to feel sorry for these IDIOTS! Sorry America…You chose racism over the most qualified person ever to run for POTUS!! #TeamHillary #VoteBlue2018
I could not agree more.
TRUMP IS A CONGENITAL LIAR.
trump regret tears taste yummy!!!! You idiots were warned, repeatedly. Nothing is more satisfying then watching reality kick you dumbasses squarely in the ass.
Gee… It’s like no one tried to warn them! FFS!
i hope all you deplorables die a slow horrible death especially when your obamacare is taken away,,,, as you are getting exactly what you deserve!
Boo hoo, trump’s a lying asshole. Had you bothered to actually pay attention to what he did, instead of what he said, you’d have known he was a narcissistic pathological liar with delusions of grandeur, LONG before the election. No wonder he loves the uneducated…easy to fool, too stupid to realize it.
Gimme a minute… it might take me a little to find any fucks to give.
I agree with the essence of this article, but have a problem with your use of a stock image to illustrate the headline. That is a stock photo, and not a real Trump voter. I believe that we have an obligation on the Left to rise above the deceptive practices of our opponents. Using what amounts to a fake image weakens your message, and hurts our cause. I hope you are strong enough to accept criticism from one who supports you, and will not censor this comment. The ability to acknowledge weaknesses and mistakes is a sign of moral strength and projects confidence and democratic values. Thanks.
They wanted hate and lies, they got hate and lies. Alternative facts won’t save you from reality. The school of hard knocks will catch up to you.
The problem with being so gullible is the next shyster will come along and they will gladly vote for more of the same and then cry again and again and again that they keep getting the hate and lies they voted for.
YES you really are the deplorables and no one feels sorry for you!
58% of eligible voters voted in 2016. Trump got 46.1% of that 58%. That means he got *27% of the US voting population* to vote for him.
An approval rating in the 30s is actually *kind of high* considering what a divisive disaster his presidency is.
As for the Trump voters expressing regret, for all we know that may be a *good* thing. No one knows what they *really* wanted to see by now. Maybe (probably) mass deportations, “the wall”, Roe v Wade overturned, etc.
