Trump Praises His Popularity After Republicans Get Crushed
November 9, 2026 at 6:02 PM
Mamdani is close to Obama levels of popularity
There is a theory that the Trump WH spent too much time marinating in online RW silo, and thought their gratuitous cruelty was actually popular with most Americans.

The new DEM majorities need to avoid marinating in the online LW silo thinking Bernie"s socialism will be popular.

It won't

It’s similar to his knowledge about his own popularity.

Your popularity is in the tank so you bring in a guy from Duke?

He earned it. This isn’t a popularity contest you dim wits.
Senator Chuck Schumer of New York, the minority leader, still faces skeptics in his ranks and disapproval from some activists. But his aides say he has enough commitments of support from Democratic senators to be re-elected majority leader.

The popularity of the pale or white wedding dress is often attributed to Queen Victoria but many surviving examples attest to earlier popularity. This 1799 bridal gown catches a moment of change on the cusp of a new century #mfaboston #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

zohran’s popularity is in no small part because he’s constantly putting out short-form videos about what his government is actually doing. meet the people where they are and tell them about the potholes you’re fixing!
100% agree.

The Democrats need to hire the best vertical-video producers in the country and fund them to put out a CONSTANT stream of social media Content about the ongoing investigations into GOP crimes + how Democrats are rebuilding America.

I am deadly serious about this.
They've gotta make content! Do well-produced videos about the investigations that people can share

Hence its popularity with commuters.

Yet it doesn't go unchallenged here. Hehe😏

Fox suffered a massive blow in midterm election ratings as a blue wave swept through the country. The network's ratings have slipped overall, as the GOP has also declined in popularity.

"Donald J. Trump’s epic drubbing in the midterms inspired him to replace his chief of staff, Susie Wiles, with Stephen Miller, whose popularity rivals that of explosive diarrhea."
Stephen Miller Doesn’t Want You to Read This
The following is 100% factual (because I couldn’t make it up).

Apparently, everything in US is a reality/popularity show. Incredible.
November 10, 2026 at 1:47 PM
one undercurrent of the midterm wave was zohran mamdani's intense popularity and inspiration for left-wing candidates whom fox news derogatorily called "mini-mamdanis." jeffries and schumer refused to endorse mamdani. schumer *voted against him.* picking them as leaders is like picking andrew cuomo

Watching this explains everything about people like Chuck schumer and Cory booker and their popularity.

Vote like dogshit all the time then turn around and be like “buzzwords, BUZZWORDS WILL FIX THIS ALL”

Incensed by Donald Trump’s lack of popularity and mobilised by a rallying cry from the X owner, America’s online hard right is having a cringeworthy meltdown – and it’s a joy to behold...

Pump the popularity stats at the start of this article into your veins if you need a pick-me-up on this cold grey Sunday.
New post:

Probably the most important political trend of the year has been Farage's growing unpopularity - which has dropped Reform to third place in the polls.

How did it all go so wrong for him? Is he now the main block on the radical right in the UK?

100% this.

As the party of Christian whiteness Republicans have the presumed high ground at all times. It is *always* incumbent on Democrats to reach out to them, and never the other way around, regardless of popularity, electoral success, or level of institutional power.
After Georgia Dems flipped the House and Governor’s mansion, Senate Dems held a press conference on Wednesday and were asked: “how are Democrats planning to work with Republicans?”

I responded, you’re asking the wrong question. The question now is: how are Republicans planning to work with us?

Funny how being hated by Donald Trump increased her popularity tenfold

Not sure how these guys are losing popularity when they have relatable messages like "I have so much money i don't even know how much I have, it's basically hypothetical to me"
