Ok, a little bit of good news

A whole lot of people in this country aren't buying the snake oil Trump and his henchmen are selling:

Trump averaged 50% or higher approval in 12 states in total, primarily in the states where he received the most votes in the 2016 election. In addition to West Virginia, the states where at least half the respondents approved of Trump included several western states (Wyoming, Idaho, Montana and Alaska), several southern states (Oklahoma, Alabama, Kentucky, Tennessee and Arkansas) and two Midwestern states (North and South Dakota).

Trump earned between 40% and 49% approval -- above his national average -- in 20 states. These were predominantly in the Midwest and South, and included several of the key rustbelt states that were critical to his 2016 victory: Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan.

Fewer than 40% of respondents approved of Trump in the remaining 18 states, 14 of which are located in the East and West -- his worst performing regions in the election. In addition to Vermont, his ratings were particularly low -- below 30% -- in Massachusetts (27%), California (29%) and Hawaii (29%). Maryland, New York, Connecticut and Rhode Island round out the states where fewer than one-third of the respondents approved.

He's got a bit problem and not just in the blue states (although he's doing so badly that the GOP in those states should be really worried.) He's at 39% disapproval and 54% disapproval in Texas.



This election could be our last chance. I'm not being hyperbolic. These Republicans have all decided to throw in their lot with this cretinous, authoritarian imbecile. Unless they pay a price there may be no going back.
