Trump Back in the Spotlight: Outrage Over “Fake” Polls About Declining Support
Former US President Donald Trump continues to surprise his supporters and critics with new statements about the political environment and his approval ratings. This time, he sharply reacted to recent sociological research indicating a significant fall in his popularity ahead of his second term. In a comment published through his official presence on the social network Truth Social, Trump called such polls “fakes” and “fake news,” assuring that his administration is “doing better than ever.” According to the former White House chief, his political rating is likely able to withstand any criticism and media fabrication. “The polls by lying mainstream media, along with this false information itself, are a provocation and a disinformation mechanism. Everything is going according to plan, and we feel better than ever,” Trump emphasized in his social media statement, trying to reassure his supporters of his strong position. However, his words sparked a heated reaction in society in Lviv, as the latest data from sociological services, including Reuters/Ipsos surveys, paint a completely different picture. According to this data, Trump’s support has reached its lowest levels since his return to the White House. Experts estimate that his popularity among citizens has decreased significantly over the past few months, raising questions about his chances of running again for the presidency. Concerns are growing about the future of the leader and scenarios for the development of American politics. Currently, the exact reason for the decline in popularity remains unknown, but internal political battles, scandals, and a crisis of trust in his leadership are not ruled out as factors influencing this process. Addressing the public, the politician again insists that his activities meet the highest standards of efficiency and calls for support, emphasizing his ability to rebuild trust and return to the helm of the state. Still, this is just one side of the coin; opponents note that low ratings are a serious signal of the possible end of Trump’s era in high office. It should be recalled that this scandal is just one of many in Trump’s long history as a political figure who has repeatedly attracted the attention of the world community with controversial statements and surprising decisions. Experts warn that time will tell whether he can convince voters and regain trust, or if his political career, despite all the claims of “victories,” will go down in history as one of the most scandalous periods in modern US history.
