Trump’s policies are hurting Americans — but he’s winning the PR battle
To low-information voters, President Donald Trump's flurry of executive orders looks like action.
Summary
In his first four weeks back in office, Trump has aggressively pushed executive orders, spending freezes, and mass firings, drawing both outrage and support.
To low-information voters, this flurry of orders appears like decisive action, boosting his approval ratings despite legal challenges.
His cuts to DEI programs and USAID funding resonate with those frustrated by government spending. However, opposition to Elon Musk’s role in the administration is growing.
Democrats are urged to shift their messaging from abstract policy fights to personal impacts on local communities.

Yea, well, we'll see how well the republicans get support 3 years from now when everyone is in even more pain than they are today.
The people will again be looking for someone to blame, and rather than blaming themselves for being stupid and voting for Trump, they will simply throw Trump under the bus.
That's assuming we have fair elections, or even elections at all. Look at how much his people have done in a month, think they won't get around to completely rigging elections by the 2nd year mark for midterms, or 4th year mark for presidency? This won't stop until people literally fight back. Protests won't do a damn thing.
No, Trump will tell them it’s the DEI Evil Democrats he hasn’t purged yet, and vote for him and his cronies so he can keep doing The Good Work! And they will believe it, and vote for him, and cheer him on.
See: Hitler blaming the Jews for everything.
Any serious, viable candidates from the opposition will be ‘investigated’ and arrested on charges of ‘fraud’.
They’ll be lucky to end up in gitmo.
