Chump back below 40 at Gallup

He didn't get a rally around the flag bump from his military adventures because unlike his presidential predecessors many Americans believe he is acting out of political expediency and not in the national interest.

BTW, I heard a bunch of Deplorables talking at the gym. They were almost orgasmic when talking about the MOAB Trump dropped in Afghanistan. I heard one say it must have made the people there "pee in their pants."

There is more to being president than making things go boom.

Since everything Trump does is out of self interest or political expediency maybe he won't willy nilly bomb people if it doesn't inure to his benefit. OTOH, he might get off on that stuff, like the clowns at the gym.

... And they said historically, these bumps are smaller and shorter lives than most people would expect.
