Trump poll numbers drop after redacted Mueller report released

37 percent.

And he'll hold a rally, yell about some brown people rushing the border, and it'll be back to forty. This is a president whose entire strategy is to be reelected by losing the popular vote and winning the EC – again. https://t.co/7SLBizUxuU

Trump attacks the Times and the Post. Here’s how to subscribe to them.

I subscribe to both. We need to support journalism.

Americans support gun safety ideas

recent polls

The Republican party, which gets massive support from the NRA, will make sure none of these things become law as long as they control the Senate. They care about their donors, not the public. Even Republicans support background checks but McConnell will never give it a chance for a vote. Sad!

Do you support or oppose requiring background checks for all gun buyers?

In order to reduce gun violence, do you think banning the sale of semi-automatic assault guns such as the AK-47 or the AR-15 will make a difference or not make a difference?

I am not amused when Trump jokes about term limits

This is how authoritarians act. If he loses in 2020, he may not leave voluntarily.

Trump again jokes about staying on as president for more than two terms https://t.co/Ho9kg0ERyQ
— Derek Cressman (@DerekCressman) April 20, 2019

This isn’t the first time Trump has “joked” about staying on as President. We should take this seriously-he often excuses his worst comments as jokes & he knows he’s only protected from criminal prosecution for as long as he stays in office. https://t.co/DotbvCS0XW

Be prepared for Trump not leaving office even if he loses. I know you think I'm nuts but I've always taken him literally and seriously. People thought we were nuts when we told them he will implement the Muslim Ban..
