Reports of Donald Trump’s base growing increasingly unhappy with his performance are being borne out by new polling from Fox News showing the president and the Republican Party’s approval numbers on a wide array of policies are in free fall.
On Thursday morning, MS NOW’s “Morning Joe” co-host Joe Scarborough noted that he had never seen such a dramatic collapse in such a short time.
“I saw something yesterday, Willie [Geist] — generic ballot test. And we’ve been talking about how badly things have been going for Republicans over the past two, three, four weeks. I will say, in all my years in politics… I’ve never seen this big of a spread. I’ve never seen one party with this high of a number. And I think you would probably have to go back to maybe post-Watergate days. This is staggering.”
Sharing the poll number showing Republicans trailing Democrats in the upcoming midterms 55 to 41 percent, the MS NOW host remarked, “A 14 point spread. That’s the generic ballot. The question is, if the midterms were held today — they’ll be a year from now — Who would you vote for? 55 percent of Americans say Democrats, 41 percent say Republicans — a massive split.”
“Obviously, the alarm bells went off two weeks ago because of those elections in Virginia, New Jersey and places across the country. And now you’re seeing what Americans are saying is we’re not happy with the way things are going in this country right now.”
