Does Trump realize he has a low approval rating?

Here was an exchange that happened at the White House literally today.

TRUMP: That’s why I sued the New York Times two days ago for a lot of money

KARL: A judge just threw that out

TRUMP: I’m winning. I’m winning the cases.

Trump is a senile old man, one with mysterious bruises and half his face is drooping.

Obviously something major is medically wrong with him. No, I don’t think he realizes he has a low approval rating. I don’t think he is aware of much at all. A major scandal during the Biden administration was that he accidentally called the president of Egypt the president of Mexico.

Imagine the headlines that would have happened if he not only could not remember the status of his own lawsuit, but kept insisting the opposite of reality was true. In 2016 people kept insisting Hillary Clinton, a person who is very much still alive, was on death’s door… and here we are in 2025 watching Trump visibly decompose in real time.

  1. I don’t think there is a single person who is willing to actually tell Trump what his approval rating is.
  2. I don’t think Trump has the mental capacity to remember what his approval rating is, even if someone told him.
  3. I think Trump is wandering around in a fog all day, likely screaming at whatever TV happens to be in front of him, and some combination of J.D. Vance and Stephen Miller are the people actually running the country.

And lastly, very much everything insisted about Biden is true about Trump to a much, much, much greater degree. And has been since he started campaigning (again). You should ask yourself why the media is not treating it at all like they treated Biden.

Trump keeps saying his approval ratings are sky high — no one ever had approval ratings as high as him.

But of course it’s not true.
Whether his underlings tell him that or not is a question. They probably don’t — no one wants to be the bearer of bad news, fearing Trump’s fury.

In Texas in particular, Trump now has a huge problem with Latino voters. He had net “zero” among Latinos in Oct.2024 — now he’s 32 points under water.

And Texas is where the GOP picked a lot of votes in 2024 — and began gerrymandering last month, in hopes to improve their results further.

But the gerrymandering effort was based on the hopes that Latino voters would stay loyal to the GOP. Looks like these hopes could totally backfire.

The marks on the most important issue for voters — the economy — look absolutely dismal for Trump.

He lost massive 49 points (nearly 50 points!) on the economy among Latino voters, in less than a year.

That’s a tectonic shift.

Now you can appreciate Trump administration’s push for silencing dissent — the GOP is terrified of losing 2026 midterms.
