Today, April 29, 2025, marks President Donald Trump’s 100th day in office. The liberal media that has underestimated and misrepresented the president for the past decade will make us believe that his second term has been a disaster up to date. Many of us who voted for Trump disagree.
Pollers will tell you that Trump’s approval rate is free falling. Critics (and the president) suggest that some polls do not pass the smell test. GOP poller John McLaughlin reports that Trump has shown in a new NY Times/Siena poll that he has approved just 42% of the time how the president handles his job.
A recent ABC/Washington Post poll showed Trump was 39% approved – “The lowest in 80 years” denounced the headline, but according to McLaughlin, Trump voted only 34%. As McLaughlin pointed out about the truth social, “Did we not win the popularity poll with 50%?”

A company called Quantus Insights, which claims to have achieved better accuracy than most voting outfits in 2024, shows that Trump still orders 91% of Republicans and his overall approval is about 48% higher than most other surveys.

Still, Trump’s support is undoubtedly softer, and it’s no wonder. Economists say prices are expected to skyrocket, the US is likely to fall into a recession, “supply shocks are coming,” and the dollar is under attack.
Don’t worry about the inflation eased over the past two months and actually negative in March. Jobs Market remains solid and don’t worry about Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan recently told Brett Bayer on Fox News that “consumers are still spending.”
It is said that the end is near, as Trump is trying something that should have happened 10 or 2 years ago. He is trying to cancel the damages caused by allowing China to participate in the World Trade Organization. China has broken all rules to promote fair trade (thanks to President Clinton, Bush and Obama), and through a series of trade agreements that allowed US companies to ship jobs overseas.
Trump’s tariff war battle in liberal media is relentlessly and universally negative. Is anyone worried about the US dependence on Chinese industry and medicines? Who would infuriate the imposition of a 10% tariff on US cars while the US EU allies only impose 2.5% tariffs on BMW and Volvo? Is someone looking at Trump’s trade agenda completely upside down?
Why, yes, it turns out that so many people probably agree to the president’s actions. Pollster Frank Luntz recently called out a group of around 15 Trump voters, pulsating rock-filled over the past few weeks, hoping to blow up elected leaders, particularly on tariffs and stock market slump.
Lunz seemed surprised to learn that Trump voters remained firmly in the presidential camp. With the price hike generated by the forecasted tariffs, they said they were willing to pay more for goods made in the US, helping them bring home production. In the stock market, they observed that the market went up and down, and there were revisions under President Joe Biden.
Overall, the group seemed happy to give Trump time to work through his agenda.
That certainly isn’t the view of the liberal press who fought Trump at every stage of his political journey. Whether they called on China to encourage NATO allies to spend defensively, break trade rules, steal intellectual property, or defend border walls, the facility fought him until voters were on his side.
It is said that the end is near, as Trump is trying something that should have happened 10 or 2 years ago.
Trump doesn’t have much time. He could only serve for just four years and could lose the GOP majority in Congress within two years, so he entered an oval office moving into what is called Trump Speed in many initiatives. He is giving Democrat heartburn by tackling so many ambitions at once.
Of the 31 major campaign promises, even the Washington Post had to admit that he had made all but eight progress, and that summary was dishonest. Of the eight people listed as “not occurring,” the promise to “cut taxes” and “eliminate tips and overtime taxes” are clearly “ongoing” (a different category) as Congress is working towards a settlement bill.

The post points to the “distance” of many initiatives, with judges stepping in to end birthright citizenship and denying progress in cutting funding for sanctuary cities. Some of these suggestions are successful, while others do not. Trump supporters will cut off some slack for him because they cannot overcome judicial interference.
But they also praise Trump’s promise to be moving rapidly. It cannot expand oil and gas production, rollbacks of destructive environmental regulations, eliminate aggressive race and gender curricula in schools, prevent girls from having to compete with biological men in sports, and significantly reduce the flow of people entering our country.
These policies anger liberal facilities, but they are not the group that elected Trump. Working class common sense Americans vote for Donald Trump, and most of the time I guess it’s like a sample of Luntz, they like what he’s doing.

Certainly, the president took on many such initiatives, so mistakes were made. In particular, the deployment of customs programs was discontinued, creating uncertainty. But if the White House can sign India, Japan and South Korea next month or so, those wins will calm the market and cheer for voters.
Trump should continue to offer his campaign promises. Voting takes care of itself…and once again becomes great.
