Miles Taylor, who served as chief of staff at the Department of Homeland Security during Trump’s first term, tore into the administration’s handling of its relationship with Canada in a new Substack post.
“Canada is demonstrating, for every democracy watching, that the response to Trump’s bullying should be neither submission nor hysteria… but the calm construction of alternatives,” he wrote. “Our allies aren’t leaving because they hate America. They’re leaving because they miss us, and they can’t stand the bully who’s holding us hostage.”
The same polls that find him to be unpopular predicted wins for Hillary and Harris.
The fact is the only popularity rating that matters is the election, and America failed it MISERABLY in 2024.
Yeah the polls are as biased as our media. I don’t trust them either. What I do trust is all of the local activation I have been seeing. It’s one thing to lie to a pollster from the couch, it’s another to physically show up at your local city council meeting. I have been seeing a lot of latter, ngl.
With who owns the big publications these days, a poll saying an opponent is “unpopular” is probably a psyop to get the voters less motivated to show up. Apathy “no way they win, so I dont need to vote”
It’s a “touch grass” situation honestly. Don’t believe the tv or internet. Do connect with your neighbors to chat and organize. No one else can do it for us, it’s just incredibly frustrating. I have mentioned, we’ve self selected into certain regions. The US is currently being held hostage by the tyranny of the minority so we’ve gotta do what we can. I hate that the rest of the country sees a Californian as a non-citizen but I can’t fix that where I am at. I just have to bully all of my friends and family to vote. And I demand those “I Voted” stickers!
