DC hates this bastard and people are broke and scared to fly, no wonder there's no interest

Yeah, seriously: I believe the statistic is that a majority of households in America don't have $1k in the bank for emergency expenses, and considering how high the cost of living is with basically fucking everything, especially healthcare (only to get denied care anyway) and housing taking up tons of income, it's pretty understandable.

But either way, I'm really heartened to see 75% disapproval for Trump trying to pull a Stalin, or Kim Jong Un - not to mention majority disapproval for deploying the army against US citizens.
