Trump is having a disastrous Monday morning. This may be one of the worst days of his entire term of both terms. In fact, he was just hit with catastrophic polling from CNN 24 hours before the critical November 4th elections where Prop 50 in California to do a mid decade redistricting there is on the ballot. Where you have critical governors races in Virginia and New Jersey are on the ballot there. Donald Trump just got this data from CNN. His disapproval rating right now is 63%. That's worse than either term based on the CNN polling. In other words, his polling right now is worse than it was when he left office following the January 6th insurrection. And it's not just the CNN poll, it's catastrophic polling across the board, across all demographics, across every single issue. He's underwater. And again The T, the YouGov poll, the Economist poll. Donald Trump is indeed a historic president. He is the most historically unpopular president at this time in history and all the Trump sycophants are trying to make sense of it. Cat turd, a MAGA Republican influencer is like these polls are all fake. It's all fake. And again, 37% of Americans approve, 63% disapprove. Then when it comes to the generic ballot, if the midterms were held tomorrow based on the CNN poll, who would the American people want to control Congress by a margin of 47 to 42%. The American people want Democrats to control Congress. Also, let's take a look at YouGov. As Owen Winter says in our polling with YouGov, since the start of his second term, Trump's net approval has fallen 17 points among white Americans, 28 points among Hispanic Americans, and and 38 points among black Americans. So he's net negative 74amongst black Americans, net negative 37among Hispanic Americans, and net negative 1 now amongst white Americans. So he's underwater right now against with white Americans. Now you take a look at the tip poll as well there. Donald Trump's approval is only 40% there. And again, just look at other data and you'll see why he's so loathed and detested. But let's take a look at Data regarding layoffs. 950,000 layoffs in the first three quarters of his presidency. Okay, that's worse than any other year other than Covid and the Great Recession. Here's how Max Kennerly puts it. Congrats to everyone who put Republicans in charge for the economy. The first 3/4 of 2025 already had more layoffs than any of the years in which Biden or Obama was president, except 2009, when Dems were still cleaning up the prior Republican mess. And you can see it in the chart right here. Layoffs are already higher than for any full year since 2020. Just look at 2025. You see it right there and that's the data for three quarters. And also, we don't have a full data set because Donald Trump's government shutdown has made the Bureau of Labor Statistics not produce or distribute the data. And in any event, Donald Trump's using the government shutdown as an excuse not to release the critical economic data. But here's what we know. It's been harder than normal to get a grasp of the US labor market lately, with several agencies that produce key economic data, including the Bureau of Labor Statistics, going dark during the government shutdown. But even before that, Donald Trump's efforts to downsize the US Government left holes in the sprawling federal statistical system. But private data sets have helped fill in some of the gaps. A report from the outplacement firm Challenger, Gray and Christmas showed almost 950,000 US job cuts this year through September. That's the highest year to date total since 2020. And that was before the heavy October run of layoff announcements. Excluding that first year of the COVID 19 pandemic, US job cuts in the first nine months have already surpassed full year layoffs for every year since 2009, when something is almost the worst since the Great Recession. That's not very encouraging numbers. And the data set that I gave you again is just three quarters. And we've heard about all of those layoffs in October from Amazon and all these corporations that we've been reporting on here on the Midas Touch Network like this. Page one of the Wall Street Journal today was this. US Employers are becoming more comfortable with layoffs. Just think about that term. US Companies are more comfortable. You know who's not more comfortable with layoffs? Hardworking Americans who want to work jobs who are now being replaced by AI and these massive data centers. That's what the American people want to do. They want to work. They want to be able to afford their rent. They want to be able to own a, want the psychological torture of living paycheck to paycheck. They want healthcare. And Donald Trump and these MAGA Republicans are just ripping it away from them. Take a look at the Dallas Morning News. This was the front page there. Rural hospitals struggle to survive. And that's not unique to Dallas. We're seeing that across the country because what Trump called a big beautiful bill is a disastrous bill which we all knew would shut down rural hospitals, take away people's Medicaid and gut people's health care. Also, here's the what's on the front page. Black families to feel the brunt of the cuts. But you know who is thriving right now in this Trump presidency? Billionaires. And often foreign billionaires as well. You take for example, the founder of a crypto exchange called Binance. The guy's name was cz. A few years back, he pled guilty to serious money laundering charges in connection with having money funneled to like, terrorist groups like Hamas and Al Qaeda and other horrific, horrific end uses of this money. Well, we all know that Donald Trump pardoned this guy cz, who runs Binance, this crypto exchange. And then Donald Trump was asked on 60 Minutes, why'd you pardon this guy? Tell us about that. Do, do you, don't you think that to the American people who are suffering right now, that blatant corruption is something that should not be taking place? That's not exactly the way Norah o' Donnell asked the question. But that's how. I'll paraphrase that. That's how the question should have been asked. But what Donald Trump's answer was is I don't know who that is.
