In the grand theater of American politics—where narratives are spun faster than a carnival Tilt-A-Whirl—you’d think the Left’s daily barrage of so-called scandals would’ve finally dented President Donald Trump’s public standing.
They’ve tried everything.
He’s been “at war” with judges. (Translation: he disagreed with them.) He’s received the cold shoulder from Maine’s frigid Governor Janet Mills. (I mean, if eye rolls could freeze, she’d be a glacier.) Mayors of Chicago and Boston have taken turns acting like they’re starring in a Broadway musical about defying federal law. And just for flair, leftist radicals from coast to coast are torching Teslas like it’s a new Olympic sport.
And yet—Trump’s approval rating? Tied for the highest he’s ever had. According to the latest Harvard-Harris poll, Trump is sitting pretty at 49%—a number that flies in the face of everything the media insists the public should be panicking over. Meanwhile, the Democrats? A cringe-worthy 27% favorability rating, according to CNN’s own polling. That’s not a typo. That’s a full-blown, nose-dive collapse of public confidence.
It’s official: the gaslighting isn’t working.
If you had a dollar for every time a legacy media outlet said “this time Trump is finished,” you could afford to run your own campaign—and buy a few Teslas to boot.
Every headline screams SCANDAL! Every cable chyron reads like the end times. And yet, average Americans—those living in the real world, not elite echo chambers—just aren’t buying it.
The media’s Chicken Little routine is out of gas, and frankly, it’s not even entertaining anymore. The wolf has been cried to death.
First, the judicial dust-ups. The press would have you believe that Trump’s questioning of certain legal rulings is akin to torching the Constitution. Last I checked, disagreeing with a judge isn’t illegal—or un-American. If it were, half of Congress and most of MSNBC would be in jail.
Then there’s Governor Janet Mills of Maine, who appears to believe that mean mugging the President earns her moral superiority points. The truth? Maine voters care more about lobster prices than political drama. Mills may think she’s frosty, but Trump supporters in New England seem more than capable of brushing off the chill.
And don’t forget Boston’s Mayor Michelle Wu and Chicago’s Brandon Johnson—two mayors who seem more interested in resisting Trump than resisting crime. While their cities spiral in chaos, they grandstand about “federal overreach.” It’s performance art masquerading as governance.
Meanwhile, progressive radicals are literally setting fire to Teslas. You read that right—electric cars. The supposed sacred cows of the green revolution are now being targeted by the same activists who demanded them in the first place. It’s hard to keep track of the circular firing squad on the Left.
But somehow, Trump remains the villain?
A new Harvard-Harris poll shows President Trump with 49% approval—tying his all-time high. The American people are apparently just fine with the guy actually running the country right now. (New York Post, March 16, 2025)
Meanwhile, Democrats have managed to achieve a truly remarkable feat: they’ve made themselves even less likable than Congress. CNN’s March 2025 poll put Democratic Party favorability at a dismal 27%. (CNN.com, March 16, 2025)
To put that in perspective:
- Congress has a 31% approval rating.
- The IRS is hovering near 29%.
- Root canals probably test higher in swing states.
Even Bill Maher—not exactly a MAGA hat guy—warned Democrats that if they don’t wake up, they’re going to “become the Whigs.” (New York Post, March 22, 2025)
Here’s the thing the mainstream media still hasn’t figured out: voters see through the charade.
They know when they’re being manipulated. They can tell the difference between an actual scandal and breathless hysteria. And above all, they judge a leader by results—not vibes.
Americans remember what secure borders look like. They see energy prices easing. They know the economy is starting to breathe again. And—most importantly—they know leadership when they see it.
You can call it nostalgia. You can call it stubbornness. You can even call it “clinging to the past.” But the numbers don’t lie: the American people are rewarding results. The media can clutch its pearls all it wants, but that won’t change the fact that the President is doing what he said he would do—and it’s working.
So go ahead—keep shrieking, keep spinning, keep lighting up Teslas if you must. But don’t be shocked when the American people continue to tune it all out. The gaslighting isn’t working. And they’ve never seen more clearly.
