Peak Trump: President Surges To Highest
Approval Rating Since Inauguration

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 4/15/2025 6:58:55 PM

President Trump’s job approval rating has surged to its highest number since he was inaugurated in January. Currently, Trump’s job approval rating sits at 54 percent, with only 46 percent disapproving. This ties his all-time high this year (in this poll) and is a five-point boost in approval since late March. This poll of 1,002 registered voters was taken between April 10-14, the days during the so-called stock market turmoil after the president instituted the tariff increases he ran on, which appear to have brought dozens of countries to the negotiating table.

The MSM, Daily Mail, Youtube and pretty much every news site on the internet hate President Trump. Their articles and videos are slanted and most of the content is a lie. We all know he's doing a great job in spite of the hatred thrown at him. He's one of the great ones.

The UK Daily Mail commissioned this poll? They're no friend of Trump so in reality his approval numbers are likely 10 to 15% higher than stated.

Weasely members of the House and Senate need to pay attention to these numbers and get behind the agenda. IF they do the midterms are gong to be a lot of fun

On a chilly February night in 2025, Jay Sani, an Indian-American student at Washington State University, stepped out of a bar wearing his red MAGA hat. The 28-year-old engineering student didn’t expect the night to take a violent turn, but it did. According to reports, as Jay walked, two figures approached him. Patrick Mahoney, a university instructor and vocal proponent of Palestinian causes, and Gerald Hoff, a graduate student and teaching assistant. It is unclear what sparked the confrontation, but words were exchanged and, as seen on security footage, Mahoney lunged at Jay, ripping the hat from his head.

The Supreme Court temporarily halted the Trump administration's use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport members of the Tren de Aragua Venezuelan street gang early Saturday. A terse order issued on a 7-2 vote with Justices Thomas and Alito dissenting, the Court ordered the administration "not to remove any member of the putative class of detainees from the United States until further order of the Court."This caps off a furious day of legally maneuvering and borderline legal malpractice as the ACLU was laughed out of court in the Northern District of Texas, appealed to the Fifth Circuit and lost there, and then schlepped to the court of Resistance hero

For this massive amount, attendees will get to hear the 2024 losing candidate Kamala Harris cackle her way through the evening. Who wouldn’t want to spend this kind of cash for such a great night?

Sometimes you just can't help but laugh. For some time now, the Democratic Party's been dealing with approval ratings lower than a snake on a submarine and sinking faster than a lead brick in clear water. Their embrace of every possible policy position that at least 80 percent of the country opposes has cost them, and let's hope they never figure it out.A new Gallup poll is in, and for Republicans as well as any Americans who aren't barking nuts (Democrats), it's giggle-inducing. Confidence in the Democratic Party's congressional leadership has sunk to an all-time low, according to a new national poll.

Anti-Trumpers are planning a massive, nationwide protest against President Donald Trump as part of actions from the 50501 movement over Easter weekend. The 50501 movement works under the phrase, “50 protests. 50 states. 1 movement” and describes itself as a group fighting to “uphold the Constitution and end executive overreach.” The organization’s next “day of action” falls on Saturday, April 19 — the day before Easter Sunday. “We are trying to protect our democracy against the rise of authoritarianism under the Trump administration,” Hunter Dunn, a spokesperson for the group, said according to the Washington Post.

MSNBC’s Morning Joe proved once again that when it comes to violent crime, especially involving illegal immigrants, their instinct is to deflect, downplay, or dismiss. On Thursday, the panel spent over seven minutes hand-waving away mounting evidence against an alleged MS-13 gangster, more concerned with spinning the narrative than acknowledging the brutal realities tied to the Biden administration’s reckless open-border policies. Rather than confront the serious implications of letting dangerous individuals slip through the cracks, the hosts fell back on tired talking points and partisan gaslighting, showing just how out of touch the liberal media remains on law and order.

The White House practically broke X on Friday with a post showing Hollywood star Vince Vaughn posing for a photo with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office. In the now-viral post on X from the White House's official account, Trump is pictured sitting behind the Resolute Desk with the 55-year-old actor standing next to him.“President Donald J. Trump & Vince Vaughn in the Oval Office,” the post read. It included a movie-type poster with their names and the title “White House Crashers.” It was an obvious reference to one of Vaughn’s bigger movie hits, the 2005 romantic comedy “Wedding Crashers” with actor Owen Wilson.

As Matt and Sarah have touched on this week, New York's Democratic Attorney General may soon find herself in hot legal water. Letitia James famously told voters she'd use her powers to come after Donald Trump, which she then proceeded to do, pursuing a civil case for "fraud" in which the supposedly defrauded victims denied that they were defrauded or victimized. James' office used a legal approach that even the Associated Press admitted had never been applied in the same manner to anyone else, ever (James' fellow anti-Trump partisan Alvin Bragg did something similar on the criminal side in Manhattan, of course).

A Maryland father wrongly deported to El Salvador and held in a notoriously violent prison told a U.S. senator that he was traumatized by the experience. Kilmar Abrego Garcia reported to Sen. Chris Van Hollen during a meeting in El Salvador that he was moved nine days ago from that country's Terrorism Confinement Center, or CECOT, to another facility with better conditions. Abrego Garcia said he had been traumatized by his time in CECOT and that he had been taunted by other prisoners. “He said he felt very sad about being in a prison because he had not committed any crimes,” Van Hollen said.

They allege that Spain's traditional Holy Week processions are an “offense to Islam” and to the Prophet Muhammad, demanding their immediate ban. The Muslim group intends to sue Spain in Strasbourg over these Catholic processions, with Choudary arguing that these religious events, rooted in Catholic tradition since 1978, are a “provocation” against Muslims.

The Democrat senator who traveled to El Salvador to meet with a deported illegal migrant and alleged MS-13 member was seen drinking what appeared to be margaritas, infuriating many online. Chris Van Hollen, the junior senator from Maryland, met Thursday in El Salvador with Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a man who was sent there by the Trump administration in March despite an immigration court order preventing his deportation. But it was his decision to sip margaritas with Abrego Garcia, as El Salvador´s President Nayib Bukele put it, that caused a wave of outrage.

Where do you think this goes from here?” Dingell said, “You know, I don’t know where it goes. I’m glad that the senator was able to see him yesterday.”
