Fox News Contributor Shares Wild Theory Behind Trump’s Low Approval Rating | EUROtoday

Fox News contributor Kaylee McGhee White on Friday shared some doubtful theories about President Donald Trump and his plummeting approval rankings, arguing that they’re dismal due to Democrats — and since Trump himself has set too excessive a bar for his personal success.

White appeared on “The Five” in a phase titled, “Dems Scramble To Find Their Trump.”

“Across the aisle, on the Republican side, there is enormous unity around President Trump, and I think we’re obviously starting to see there are obviously real questions about who will pick up the mantle from him after the midterms,” mentioned Fox News contributor Charlie Hurt.

White chimed in so as to add that Trump “has an 87% approval rating among Republicans,” citing an unspecified ballot.

“And I think, you know … this is part of what we’re seeing from the Democratic side of the aisle,” she continued. “It’s a lot of cope over the fact that they don’t really have a vision, they don’t have a next-generation leader who’s gonna step in and take the place.”

White then argued that that is the first purpose “we hear a lot about how Trump’s approval ratings are cratering,” earlier than making her level that the president’s personal previous accomplishments have dampened present enthusiasm.

“I think in some ways Trump is a victim of his own success, in that voters expect a lot from him because they know that he can deliver on it,” she mentioned.

“You look at some of his biggest policy achievements from this past year — the elimination of Iran’s nuclear capacities, cracking down on the southern border, basically eliminating illegal immigration across the southern border, keeping women’s spaces for women — these are all issues where he is not just above water with voters, he’s overwhelmingly supported by 80% to 90% of Americans on these key issues.”

An end-of-the-year Gallup ballot revealed earlier this week confirmed that, particularly, 89% of Republicans approve of the president’s job efficiency. However, Trump’s total standing amongst U.S. adults is barely 36%. His lowest approval ranking of 34% notably got here in 2021 — after the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riots.

Trump received final yr’s election after promising to repair the economic system after a interval of excessive inflation underneath former President Joe Biden. Inflation has continued underneath Trump regardless of his claims on the contrary, and his tariffs have elevated total prices for on a regular basis Americans.

Former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly warned the administration in November that they “better get something going” on affordability or threat dropping the 2026 midterms. Mere days later, Trump topped himself “THE AFFORDABILITY PRESIDENT” on social media.
