from The Josh Lafazan Show · host Joshua Lafazan

📊 FACT CHECK: Trump Is Underwater on Every Issue 📊Welcome back to The Josh Lafazan Show. Tonight, we’re breaking down a new Economist/YouGov poll that shows just how deeply unpopular Donald Trump has become. His overall approval rating? -15%.And when you dig into the issues that matter most to Americans, the numbers get even worse. Trump is failing across the board — from the economy to education, from abortion to the environment. This is the president who once claimed “I alone can fix it.” The truth? He broke it.📊 SEGMENT 1 – The Polling NumbersIssue by issue, Trump is underwater:Inflation & Prices: -27% — Americans blame him for rising costs and broken promises.The Environment: -20% — Voters reject his rollback of protections and ties to polluters.Abortion: -18% — His role in overturning Roe v. Wade continues to backfire.Jobs & The Economy: -15% — Despite his boasts, voters see stagnant wages and layoffs.Education: -13% — Attacks on schools, book bans, and culture wars are losing issues.Immigration: -4% — Even on his signature issue, Trump is failing to convince voters.Americans are saying the same thing: Trump is failing on every front.📉 SEGMENT 2 – Why Trump’s Numbers Are DownWhat’s driving this collapse?On the economy, families feel the squeeze while Trump’s tax cuts helped the wealthy.On the environment, wildfires and floods expose his reckless climate rollbacks.On abortion, voters are furious that Trump stacked the Court and ended Roe.On education, parents want safe schools, not censorship and political theater.On immigration, cruelty hasn’t solved anything — it’s only divided the country.Americans aren’t buying the “strongman” act anymore. They see a president who talks tough but fails to deliver.🗳 SEGMENT 3 – The Impact on the 2026 MidtermsThese numbers are a disaster for Republicans. Vulnerable GOP candidates in swing districts will try to distance themselves from Trump — but how far can they run when Trumpism IS the Republican brand?For Democrats, this is a golden opportunity. If they lean into the issues where Trump is weakest — abortion, health care, education, jobs — they can flip the House, defend the Senate, and prove they’re the party delivering results.💊 SEGMENT 4 – Don’t Forget Health CareThe poll didn’t spotlight health care, but voters always do.Trump tried — and failed — to repeal the Affordable Care Act. Millions would lose coverage if he tries again.Democrats are lowering prescription drug prices, capping insulin costs, and expanding access.Health care is personal, it crosses party lines, and it’s another issue where Democrats can hammer home the contrast: they deliver, Trump divides.🔥 SEGMENT 5 – The TakeawayHere’s the reality:Trump’s approval is -15% overall.He’s underwater on every major issue.Republicans face electoral disaster in 2026 if these numbers hold.Democrats have the momentum — if they stay focused on working families.Trump promised he’d fix it. Instead, he broke it. And Americans know it.📢 OUTRO – CALL TO ACTIONThe numbers don’t lie: Trump is failing the American people. Republicans in Congress won’t stand up to him — but voters can.👉 LIKE if you agree Trump has failed across the board.👉 SHARE this episode so more people know the truth about these polls.👉 SUBSCRIBE to The Josh Lafazan Show for more fact-checked political analysis.Because in 2026, these numbers could change everything.
