Lifelong Republican Voter, 77, Reveals Her Massive Trump Regret
The Daily Beast • • world
Key Points:
- A 77-year-old lifelong Republican named Melanie expressed deep frustration with the Republican Party and Donald Trump, stating she may now vote Democrat or abstain altogether due to perceived party failures.
- Melanie's disillusionment intensified after Trump appointed and later fired Pam Bondi as attorney general amid controversy over her handling of Jeffrey Epstein-related documents.
- Trump's approval ratings have plummeted to historic lows, particularly due to his unauthorized war with Iran, rising energy prices, and inflation, with GOP support dropping significantly.
- Recent polls indicate growing Republican dissatisfaction with Trump’s handling of the economy and foreign policy, with a majority disapproving of his cost-of-living record for the first time.
- These trends pose a serious challenge for the GOP ahead of the midterm elections, as Democrats hold an eight-point lead nationally and many voters intend to use their vote as opposition to the president.
