What recent events have impacted Trump's polling?

Angie Sullivan 0:04
The authoritarian strongman that Donald Trump wants to be has had the worst week that I can remember in a long time. And that's a high bar because everything this man touches turns terrible. It's a disaster. It dies. He had the utmost humiliation when he was in Davos. World leaders were talking about his cognitive decline, the hand, the cankles. I mean, it was front page news all over. This man is unhinged and not with it. Then you have Jack Smith saying beyond a reasonable doubt, he would have been convicted. He was issuing death threats. This guy is a criminal criminal. through and through. And then the worst insult to this man, to this poor little, fragile, tiny hand, little man, low T all the way, were his poll numbers that were absolutely in the toilet, which we've talked about.
Angie Sullivan 1:03
So it's like, how is he going to react?

How is Trump's reaction to his polling numbers shaping his behavior?

Angie Sullivan 1:05
Because I knew when all those polls, when you're seeing 10, 20 polls of him under 35, under 40, even some under 30, I knew his little ego couldn't take it. So he starts with this barn burner about how he is going to... something should be done about fake polls. And he goes through all these fake accomplishments that he doesn't have. Then he talks about how the New York Times and so many others print full polls that they are knowingly false because he cannot wrap his head around. We all now see him like he sees him, which is small and pathetic. And so he's now calling for a lawsuit for fake pulse because his ego is that fragile. And I know this isn't the first time we've talked about this, and this isn't the first or last time that this has happened, but overnight he posted over 100 times on live social.
Angie Sullivan 2:07
Then you've got Mike Johnson saying, well, he mixes up where he only sleeps three hours a night. He sleeps three hours a night because he's too busy trying to hide the fact that he is the most pathetic, weakened leader this United States of America has ever had.
Jennifer Welch 2:27
So this has been one of his grievances for now 10, 11 years. Mad at poll numbers, going to launch a lawsuit, goes to social media, does a bender on social media all of the time. And- This is going to continue.

What has Trump said about fake polls and his accomplishments?

Jennifer Welch 2:44
This happened Trump 1.0. This happened during Biden's administration. This happens now. And whenever he gets the truth put at him is when he's going to be most dangerous and provocative with policy. And it's already so dangerous and it's already so provocative. And again, what I have to say here is for me, the big story is not Donald Trump acting like a nut. Donald Trump mad at poll numbers. I've been dealing with this for 10 years. This is not new information for me. Where my brain goes is conflict resolution. The resolution for me in this is the poll numbers are so abysmal. Why on earth? are the Democrats carving out seven votes to vote to fund ICE. That's my point. I can't sit here any more and talk about what a nut this man is because it is groundhog

Why are Democrats not capitalizing on Trump's vulnerabilities?

Jennifer Welch 3:43
It surprises me zero. Everything he does is the exact same boring shit. He's a two to three trick pony. And my focus now are on the people that claim that they oppose him. Why are you voting to fund and increase funding for an organization that has a budget larger than the United States Marine Corps that is homiciding people in El Paso, shooting people at point blank range? with a lab in the backseat of the car because her wife called some little pink arm uh trigger happy broken emotionally stunted goon a big boy shoots her in the face and calls her a bitch That's the extension of this insanity that I want to focus on that we can fix. And I am mystified, mystified beyond everything that there isn't a revolt within the Democratic Party right now.
Jennifer Welch 4:55
Some brave House members that say, you know what we're supposed to do? I'm supposed to get up to this microphone and I'm supposed to say, I support Hakeem Jeffries. We are the resistance. That's what I'm supposed to do. I'm supposed to say, well, some people might feel like in their district if they say we don't fund ICE that they're anti-law enforcement. And we need a politician to stand up and say, ICE is not law enforcement.
