Summary
Elon Musk’s job approval dropped to 41%—his lowest since joining the Trump administration—according to a Marquette Law School poll.
His favorability fell to 38%, while 58% disapproved of his work leading DOGE.
The decline follows backlash over Musk’s political involvement, including his $22 million support of Brad Schimel, who lost Wisconsin’s Supreme Court race.
Musk’s alignment with controversial Trump policies, such as calls to annex Canada, has further eroded public support.
This motherfucker was not elected. His approval ratings do not matter because nobody voted for him. Jesus fucking Christ.
Talking about his “approval rating” legitimizes Musk’s “role”. Not Senate-confirmed, unlike the departments he’s decimating. And after the damage is done, they’re going to sweep him out of there next month and say “he doesn’t even work here anymore!”
This is what I keep screaming when I read stuff like this.
Not to defend Musk or Trump, but this is literally what Trump campaigned on. Trump said he’d be dictator on day one, and that Musk would be in charge of gutting agencies. Anyone who is surprised by their actions after months of projecting their plan is naive and/or ignorant.
Yep and the media’s general complicity with this aberration of a government, even citing an “approval rating” of someone who bought and forced their way into an illegitimate position.
I agree but that’s irrelevant. The public’s approval of a person only matters if that person was elected to a position by the public. Musk was not elected, so his approval ratings amongst the public do not matter.

He deserves far worse
This is just the beginning
Alternative headline:
“38% of Americans are so addicted to NewsMax, Fox News, and OAN that they can’t stop sucking the toes of billionaires to “own the libs”, even as he cuts billions of dollars for them and the veterans, children, poor, sick, and needy.”
Millions of people will die for the sake of Hairplug Himmler’s fragile ego and masculinity.
Don’t forget his own source of propaganda, twitter.

Shit, now he will never win another election
You say it as if there will be an election
There never was. Pretty sure that’s the joke. No one elected him. No one nominated him for anything. No one confirmed him.
How is this cunt able to walk the streets?
why do you think he wears his toddler son as a helmet?
41% still think he’s doing a good job. Wow. Just… wow.
“But if I don’t lick boots, who am I?”

It’s not like he’s elected lol, he doesn’t have constituents
Again… WHY DOES HE HAVE AN APPROVAL RATING?
Accepting this normalizes unelected officials having authority.
Why would we have an approval rating for a non elected official?
I’m pretty sure any public figure can have an un/favorability rating. There’s no rule that says you can only poll the favorability of elected officials. Taylor Swift has a favorability rating.
Elon Musk’s job approval
It’s phrased in such a way that I’m reminded of politician’s approval ratings, but he’s not an elected official. Are there polls to determine the approval of persons appointed to position by the U.S. President, or are we talking about his approval as Tesla/Space X is concerned?
He should be arrested
He’s an illegal immigrant who lied on citizenship documents thus is committing crimes in America. According to this administration he deserves to be in cecot concentration camp.
he deserves much much worse.
Why did they hang Toxie? o.0
I really hope he’s stupid enough to fail to understand that this is why most of the ruling class is smart enough to keep their mouth shut in public. He’s the best advertisement of all time for “Billionaires do not deserve the wealth they have”. Keep talking Musky.
We need a French solution to the Musk problem.
That reminds me, I need to sharpen my guillo…uh, apparatus.
When a group of his AI company’s investors sue to block the AI company’s purchase of Twitter (because in what world did they agree to that?), the Saudi solution goes back on the table.
why does he have an approval rating at all. he’s just there hanging out and messing stuff up.
He doesn’t even wear a suit!
