As Trump’s downward spiral starts producing harsher media coverage, a writer who regularly dissects MAGA and political media explains why he’s entering a tailspin that will be very hard to reverse.
Suddenly, media outlets seem to have figured out that President Donald Trump is really, really unpopular. There’s been a palpable shift in the discourse: The New York Times reports that Republicans are quietly looking beyond Trump, suggesting he’s losing his grip on the party. Axios claims that it’s “red alert” time for Trump and the GOP. Politico describes how Republicans are getting routed in school board races, a sign that MAGA culture-warring has lost its sway and is even backfiring. And one CNN analyst offers a brutal reading of recent approval numbers on Trump, pronouncing them “atrocious.” We talked to Salon’s Amanda Marcotte, who regularly dissects MAGA and media foibles alike. We discuss why the political media smells blood, how deepening splits in MAGA show Trump’s weakness, what it means that the Trump-MAGA culture war and immigration raids are badly alienating ordinary voters, and how Trump is in a potentially irreversible tailspin. Listen to this episode here. A transcript is here.

They’re getting really desperate, gas ⛽ prices are 🌠 falling. Watch for their next covie scam. ✖️
He’s 87 approval with Republicans. He was 87 % 6 months ago. Bush and Obama at this point in their terms were in the 70s among their base.
This survey is from CNN. Yes, CNN.
I keep reading that MAGA is pissed at Trump, but I can’t seem to find out why. The left has it easy, at least they are told what to be mad at.
How do you like the sources being quoted, CNN, SALON, Politico, etc.
No MAGA is based on one man and that is Trump just as it was under Teddy Roosevelt when he ran...That is why Teddy started the Bull Moose party and ran as an Independent which flopped. Trump was asked about JD Vance by Reporters on day 1 of assuming the Presidency and he told them he was not endorsing him... I suspect Trump to pick Don Jr to run over Vance but both will flop. I fear Socialism will be the primary political ideology to be on he ballot in 2028...People love free stuff and the economy will be a train wreck as MAGA fizzles out as it is based on a single man’s persona.
Agree propaganda is all the left media have to offer they are the ones in a downward spiral at a high rate of speed.
