Trump driven mad by abysmal poll numbers

66% Informative
President Donald Trump is underwater on every issue now, even his supposed strong suits, immigration and the economy.
Trump believes he is the president of Trumplandia , not America , so he's fine with that too.
Democrats are trying to bring attention to some unpopular issues and have had some success recently.
But there remains some division within the party about whether they should spend their time hammering Trump and his accomplices on authoritarian takeover or concentrate on the perennial 'kitchen table issues'.
According to the Post/ABC/Ipsos poll, people oppose reducing federal funding for medical research 77% -21% Nobody voted for that and I can guarantee that people sit around their kitchen tables worrying about cancer and Alzheimer's and ALS .
The vast majority support their tax dollars going to find treatments and cures.
