The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Disapproval of Trump’s handling of the economy has risen from 56 percent a year ago to 66 percent last month and now 71 percent, a new low driven in part by a 7 percent increase in Republican disapproval.

On inflation, where Trump’s net approval sits at a historic low of -52 points, 51 percent of Republicans now disapprove of his performance.

Meanwhile, more than three-quarters of Americans (77 percent) say the economy is in bad shape, up from 73 percent last month and 71 percent a year ago, while just 23 percent rate it positively.

Personal financial outlooks are also negative, with 51 percent saying their family’s finances are worse than two years ago, compared with 44 percent before the 2022 midterms.

Rising gas prices are widely seen as a problem, with 86 percent calling them an issue and 51 percent saying they are a “major” problem; overall, 96 percent say gas prices are a problem and 75 percent call it a major issue. Most voters (91 percent) link higher gas prices to the Iran war.

But as Steve reminds…… this is only a problem for Trump if we assume the election coming up will be free and fair.

And I have to say- Trump isn’t acting like his poll numbers are a problem
