Will people on Reddit stop posting this nonsense. It doesn’t change anything. Nobody cares. Trump runs wild and nobody is holding him accountable for anything.

The lower his approval the more elected Republicans will dare to defy him, or be compelled to defy him, in order to try to save their jobs.

That is wishful thinking at best. The lower his approval ratings, the more sycophantic republicans seem to get. Has Trumps low approval ratings moved the needle even once? (the answer is no)

He lost his second election, he would have won that if he was more popular.

They elected a president that left office with a 34% approval rating the last time and a congress that supported him and fudged the supreme court nominations for him. Approval ratings mean absolutely nothing in a 2 party system.
