............ Sixty-seven percent of independents said they do not want Trump to run again, while just 28% said they do. In 2020, Trump lost independents and lost the election. In 2016, Trump fared better with the group, but throughout his presidency and afterward he suffered with them and has never regained them. .........................
.......... People who live in large cities and suburban women continue to be two of the groups most opposed to Trump, while white evangelical Christians, whites without college degrees and those in rural areas are most supportive. ............

He was never popular among sane, reasonable Americans and his numbers are continuing to go down.

I'm sure you'd agree that Hillary Clinton was a very unpopular candidate in 2016.

But guess what? She beat Trump in the popular poll by more than 3,000,000 votes.

Then Sleepy Joe comes along, and he was even less popular than Hillary.

And guess what? He beat Trump by more than 7,000,000 votes.

But that was yesterday - let's look at today:

"As of 8 September 2022, Trump's favourability rating has fallen
by another 14.7 points. It's now only 40.3% versus his
unfavourability rating of 54.9%."

If he runs in 2024 - and I certainly hope he does - he'll lose by more than 10,000,000 votes this time.

I know we're off the subject of Mr Trump, but he's been through some tough times. He had to claw his way up from C-grade celebrity status, remember. He had to create a publicist called John Barron.

"Narrow road to success", innit.

He had it pretty tough as a kid.

For the first two years of his life he wasn't even on his Dad's payroll.

It wasn't until he was three-years-old that his father started paying him $200,000 a year (for filling diapers).

How did he survive for the first thirty six months of his life? Seriously?

And things only got worse.

His father didn't start paying him $1,000,000+ a year (for doing nothing) until after he "graduated" Wink

from college.

Not many people have had a tough upbringing like that.

And to add insult to injury, he only received $413 million for his 21st birthday.

Terrible stuff.

So unfair. I heard he had to deliver newspapers on a bicycle, can you believe it?

And the family chauffeur only drove him when it rained.

That's borderline neglect, Greggery. What a survivor.

Amazing his parents weren't charged with child abuse.

Thirty six months with no six-figure income! Angry

Sure, but he got his own back by stiffing the family out of the inheritance.

Gotta laugh, no?
