They all booed…

Donald Trump’s political downfall is now evident, with approval ratings hitting a historic low—especially among independent voters who no longer support him by as much as 71 to 99 points. These numbers are driven primarily by public dissatisfaction with gas prices, inflation, and Republican economic and immigration policies. Despite his previous electoral success in states like Tennessee, Trump now faces widespread boos at public events, including a recent football game, signaling his loss of political legitimacy. His handlers have moved him to politically safe, non-competitive states to avoid damaging Republican candidates in swing areas. The polling data reveals a clear rejection of the Republican Party’s platform, showing that voters prefer economic populism and progressive policies over traditional GOP positions. This shift undermines the idea that Republicans can win by appealing to independent voters or pretending to be centrist. The deep unpopularity of Trump and Republican policies suggests that politics should be removed from sports culture, as fans increasingly reject the political associations of leaders like Trump. The analysis concludes that Democrats should abandon Republican-style messaging and instead focus on popular, inclusive policies to win public trust.

Donald Trump got booed today, and that alone is not the reason why I am making this video. I am making this video because he got booed in Tennessee, a state that he won by 30 points in 2024. But now Donald Trump is a political pariah wherever he goes, and his handlers, knowing how angry he is, knowing that they have to keep him in this alternate reality and pretend that he is popular and is loved, decided how about a football game, a nice SEC football game in Tennessee? That'll make Donald happy, but not even that works. There's so much I want to talk about in this video, but I want to start with Donald Trump's approval rating right now at a historic low because it explains why he got booed, a clip that we're going to take a look at in a second. I want to start with how hated he is because it explains the booze we're going to hear. Brand new CNN poll shows President Trump at a record low in terms of his approval rating, but that only tells part of the story because as bad as that sounds, there might be worse. With us now, CNN chief, data analyst, Harriet, and so he's talking about that overall number that's bad. You look below that, and there's some wow here. There are some stunning numbers, and I want to talk about independence, but independence who don't lean towards either the Democratic or Republican party, so-called pure independence, and these numbers and the shift from where we were back in 2024. I mean, look at these numbers, and this is an average of two different polls. Pure independent voters on Trump versus Kamala Harris. When you average the CES and Pew validated voter survey, he beat Donald Trump become a Harris by 15 points. Look at his net approval rating now with pure independence, those who don't lean towards either the Democratic or Republican party. It's negative 71 points. I mean, these are the deep depths of the ocean. You never see numbers like these. This is Johnny B. What is this? This is an 86 point shift away from the president of the United States with the group that ultimately really does determine elections. As pure independence go, usually so goes the nation. And right now, Donald Trump is at depth that truly, you rarely ever see. I mean, 86 points. It's almost impossible to conceive of a number bigger than that in terms of a swing except what if you ask pure independence about Donald Trump and the economy? Okay, look at this. This is a 99 point shift. What are we talking about? Pure independence Trump in the economy. versus Kamala Harris, he was more trusted on the economy by 22 points. That's why pure independent voters decided to vote for Donald Trump and put it back in the White House for a second term. Look at these numbers now, though, his net approval rating is minus 77 points. It's minus 77 points. In fact, I was looking at our CNN poll. The voter approval rating for Donald Trump was like 7%. 7%. That's what we were talking about here now. Again, this is an average of the polls. But if you just look at that one, it's like 7%. 7%. That is literally this. When you can put approval ratings on your two hands and you're not even taking up the full two hands, you know it is low. It's a 99 point shift. And now at negative 77 points, and it's not just one poll, I'm averaging multiple surveys here. Oh my God. I mean, you run out of adjectives here to describe how big this shift is. It's unbelievable. All right, gas prices also a big deal right now. They've gone up so much in the last month. What are people saying? What are the pure independence saying about that? What are the pure independence? What is driving this number? what is driving these numbers to the deep depths of hell as you were concerned if you're a Republican, you're running for reelection this fall. It's gas prices. It's gas prices. Look at this. Pure independence. A gas prices and Trump. Just 8%. Just 8% approved. Look at this. 92%. 92% a pure independence disapproved of Donald Trump on gas prices. We have seen this disapproverating hitting record levels with the electorate overall. We've seen the gas prices go up and you've literally see the odds that Republicans are able to hold on to control in the United States Senate, little decline as those gas prices have gone one way. Those chances for Republicans holding on to the United States Senate have gone the other way. And it's pure independence that are driving this. 92% near uniformity. Yeah. I was going to say, you know, for pure independence, this isn't all, but it's almost. It's almost. It is almost when you get 8% of folks agreeing on something that is below the percentage of the Americans who actually think the moon landing was fake. And of course, that was very real. There in. The lowest his approval rating has ever been and it will continue to go down because gas will continue to go up. Groceries will continue to go up. And so everybody everywhere hates Donald Trump. It is the reason that he is at this game today, aside from the fact that all the Republicans who told us to get politics out of sports never seem to have that same sentiment when it applies to Donald Trump or their favorite athletes becoming Maga. But no, Trump was at this Tennessee Texas game and here was the result. Listen carefully. Brian Crasherstein shared a video said crowd appears to boo loudly as Donald Trump is shown on the jumbo tron at the Tennessee football game just now. So of course, you could hear a few cheers. You could also hear the booze. But the fact that it is not at a Tennessee football game in the state of Tennessee again, where Donald Trump won by 30 points. The fact that it is not loud and resounding cheers for Trump is humiliating. The fact that there are any booze at all is humiliating in the fact that they have to go to a game like this to make sure that Trump doesn't get booed is humiliating. Now, that's not to say that the average sports fan is a is a Trump supporter. I think, you know, it depends on which sport you're going to. If it's UFC, it probably a little more so NFL, it depends on the city. But of course, the last time Donald Trump was at an NFL game where it was the Washington commanders resoundly booed. I think it's also probably because it's close to DC. But Donald Trump can no longer go to his favorite events without getting booed. We saw all of New York City booed Donald Trump. So loudly, they had to quickly take him off the jumbo tron and that is exactly what we saw here because it is embarrassing to Trump and Trump does not want the networks to allow it. We know that the networks are afraid of Donald Trump. We know that. It's why they take him off so quickly. It's why ESPM, when it replayed Donald Trump at the next game, removed the booze. They removed the booze from the sound, which is just insane levels of propaganda on behalf of the president. But Donald Trump loves going to sporting events. He loves to ingratiate himself in the culture. He loves to pretend like he's with it. He loves to pretend that he knows ball. He doesn't. Donald Trump wants to be around the cool kids. That is not what he is. Donald Trump is not one of the cool kids and Donald Trump is also so politically poisonous that he is only allowed to go to events in states that don't matter. That's not to say, of course, that Tennessee doesn't matter, but I mean, electorally, there are not a lot of races up for real grabs right now in that state. If this was a game in Ohio, that'd be a big problem for Vivek Ramaswamy and John Hustard because Amy Akden and Shared Brown, who were actually having on the show on Sunday, yeah, they're winning right now. And so you don't want Donald Trump in that state. You don't want them to have to deal with Trump. Donald Trump, his handlers are sending him to to Alabama. They're sending him to Alabama, to Tennessee. And I think Arkansas, I think those are the last states that Donald Trump is going to on his midterms tour. Why do you think they pick those states? Sure, because Donald Trump may need to help turn out for Republican candidates, because Tommy Tuberville and Deep Red Alaska is struggling in his gubernatorial race against Doug Jones, who's a fucking patriot. But Donald Trump is being sent to those places, sure for the maggot turnout, but also because his handlers are afraid to send him anywhere of substance, anywhere where he could cause a problem simply by existing there. Because that is where Donald Trump's popularity sits right now. So politically toxic, he can't even enter states or districts where it's a toss up because he will so badly harm the Republican candidate that you see Byron Donald's and Deep Red Florida or Deep Red for a period of time, maybe no longer. You see Byron Donald's removing photos of Donald Trump off of his website. Maria Salazar in South Florida coming out with an ad to air on television distancing herself and disavowing Donald Trump's immigration policy. He is historically unpopular in his own party, and you also know that, because the man who insisted at his midterm convention again and again and again, that he was on the ballot no longer is willing to say that. At the UN earlier this week, Trump said, well, quite I'm not on the ballot, people made to think that, but I'm not. not. And why is he not on the ballot anymore? Because Donald Trump knows exactly how these midterms are going to go. Over the past week, maybe it's this polling that is starting to really, really break for Democrats, or maybe it's because the models that people run of their predictions are starting to incorporate polling more, usually what you see with predictive models of how a state is going to vote. It is not until we get closer to election day that those models take into account more the polling. Usually it begins with historical trends or wait higher. And then you start to value the polls as there's more of them and you have higher rated polls and some more samples you can take. But those more polling comes in with James Tallariko up what, four or five points in Texas. Yeah, people are starting to feel pretty good. Shared brown, Amy Akden up in Ohio, in Iowa, you have Rob Sand cruise into a victory, Josh Turek with the Obama endorsement also looking strong. Ossof, are you serious? They're not even spending money Republicans in that race anymore. It's the same thing with Roy Cooper and North Carolina. They've given up. They think they gave up after Trump went and said that North Carolina was a shithole. That's why you can't send them anywhere. He will dog the state. That is where Trump is at. And so as I've been saying in these videos, when I'm talking about the hope that I have for Democrats, Democrats run on our popular positions. Do not sprint to the right thinking that you can pick up Republican voters that way. If Republican voters wanted to vote for a Republican, they'd vote for a Republican. But what the polling is telling us all right now, and I know these people love to look at the polls and not just have a moral backbone. But the polling is telling us right now, people do not want a Republican. And they do not want Republican positions on immigration, on foreign policy, on the economy, on tariffs, on anything. So why would you pretend that you're like a pseudo Republican? It's stupid. It's bad politics. You don't need to be a pretend Republican to win Texas. James Tallariko is an economic populist. That's why he's going to win. And Ken Paxton's a piece of shit. So talk about populist issues. Talk about delivering health care. Talk about taking on corruption. Don't throw trans people onto the bus. Or you know, start a fuss over Pisan Piker for no reason. That's a distraction. People hate Trump. People hate Republicans. They've known they failed. Focus on that. It's why the guy's getting booed everywhere. He goes. And for those Republicans who said they want politics out of sports, now I think you really do. Considering how hated Donald Trump is. Considering how hated Republicans are. Now maybe you'll not want politics in your sports. Because your politicians, they are not liked. They are not supported. And it's pretty funny to watch. And we're going to continue to cover it all on this show. And if you want to support that as always, you can hit that subscribe button. Leave a like on this video. If you stuck around to the end, drop a blue heart in the comments. Keep on fighting y'all. Don't let them silence you. And until next time, I'll see you soon.
