Trump Hit with Dismal Republican Polls Showing Trump Should Shut the F@&$ Up!!!

On every personal vanity project Trump has launched, from the Ballroom, to his face on money, to the Arch, to the Slush Fund, and the Iran War, the American People have risen up in new polling and have joined Robert DeNiro's birthday message to Trump: Shut the "Legal AF" UP!  Popok takes a close look at the polls showing that Trump and MAGA have "lost" America and its voters, as his enablers and handlers let him pursue projects out of step with American's goals of "affordability" lower prices and healthcare.
