Donald Trump’s administration must brace for a storm of problems as the president is “sinking like a rock”, his niece, Mary Trump, has said.
The political commentator and member of the Trump family suggested the slate of problems Trump now faces may be too much for his administration to survive. Cracks are beginning to show in the president’s core support, and issues from healthcare to the cost-of-living crisis are starting to see Trump slip in the polls.
Mary Trump said, “The Trump regime has long been a sinking ship and with a rat like Donald at the helm it’s not really surprising. But, the sinking is accelerating. Even with full control of the government, Republicans are resigning and even more are threatening to.”
She went on to say Trump’s approval ratings are “sinking like a rock” and that he looks “increasingly feeble” and “unhinged” in public appearances. Mary Trump also responded to an article published in The Atlantic, which suggested Trump is starting to lose touch with what his voter base wants.
Mary Trump countered this claim, suggesting, “Donald Trump has never been in touch with what the public wants from a president or, if he has been in touch with that sentiment, he’s never cared about it, so this, again, is not exactly news.”
“If by being in touch with the public means holding way too many rallies, I don’t really see how that tracks, how that translates into Donald’s caring what the American people think or want.”
Trump has been consistently slipping in the polls and has even lost the lead on the “only number he cares about”. It was reported earlier this week that Trump had seen the Republican voter base approval rating dwindle by seven percentage points.
MS NOW host Jonathan Capehart said, “If you look at the latest Gallup poll… I say when you look at those overall poll numbers, you’ve got to go and look at his Republican approval rating because that is the only number he cares about,”
“In this poll, it’s interesting, Donald Trump’s approval rating has fallen among Republicans seven percentage points since like a month ago.”
