Even Fox News says Americans don’t like Trump or his economy
Since the beginning of President Donald Trump’s political career, Fox News has had a reputation for not only avoiding criticism of him, but doing its best to help him sell unpopular policies. The network is historically so loyal to Trump that it had to pay nearly $800 million for spreading his election lies. But now, with his approval rating cratered and the economy in shambles, even Fox is admitting that Americans don’t like what Trump is up to.
In a new Fox poll shared Wednesday night, it was revealed that 70 percent of respondents think the economy is getting worse — a massive increase from 55 percent at the same time last year, on par with a record high set in April 2023. Just 26 percent say the economic situation has improved. While Republicans surveyed are more likely to rate the economy positively than Democrats, even among Republicans, 56 percent say general economic conditions are bad, and 52 percent say their personal finances are suffering.
What’s more, Fox also shared the latest AP-NORC poll, which showed Trump’s overall approval rating has slumped even further, now down to just 33 percent, with a whopping 76 percent of independents disapproving of the president’s performance. That same poll showed that Trump is underwater in every realm, with 67 percent disapproving of his handling of Iran, 76 percent voicing anger over the cost of living, and 59 percent saying “no” to his approach to immigration, which had previously been the one place where he held decent support.
“Even Fox News is now reporting Trump's approval rating has plummeted to 33 percent over his foolish decision to send the US economy into a likely recession over his decision to fight an unnecessary and unprovoked war of aggression,” wrote David Pyne, a security expert who serves as a Deputy Director of National Operations for the Task Force on National and Homeland Security.
Defining himself as a staunch America First advocate, Pyne once supported Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth but fell out with the administration over the war, declaring in early April that he was “ashamed” to have supported them. Now he says he’s not surprised that Trump’s numbers have plummeted, writing, “I predicted this would happen on day one of the war but I did not anticipate his poll numbers would fall this quickly.”- george conway
