'He's totally blown it': Trump warned his polling numbers are about to get much worse

Reacting to new polling that shows Donald Trump's approval ratings are cratering, a longtime GOP insider claimed the embattled president's slide with voters will continue unless he makes major changes.

Appearing on MSNBC's "The Weekend," GOP strategist Brendan Buck took issue with co-host Michael Steele who told the panel to slow down their enthusiasm over the president's growing unpopularity.

"Obviously it's just a snapshot, but I certainly don't think it's going to get better for him anytime soon," Buck countered.

"I mean, this is a president who absolutely believes in what he's doing and they throw around this word mandate a lot; they think they had a mandate to come and I'm, no actually –– I don't know that they actually did have a mandate to do that and every president says that they have a mandate," he added with a grin. "If he had a mandate to do anything, it was to address the cost of living and he's certainly not doing that."

"I think what's amazing in all of this polling is how much he has undermined the advantages he had going in," he elaborated. "He had a real advantage on the issue of immigration–– now he's underwater on immigration. That's remarkable and, of course, on the economy, this economy was ready to get going, it was going to be roaring if he had just gotten out of the way a little bit."

"Just keep things humming, especially in contrast to what we had been through under Joe Biden," he added. "Just stay out of the way, you would have been fine, and he's totally blown it."

'To your point, tariffs are just getting started. this is only going to get worse," he predicted. "You know, if anything is going to sort of check him, the guardrails are public opinion. So maybe he'll see some of this and realize that it shouldn't, he shouldn't go forward. But he's not shown himself to be somebody who, you know, recalibrates."

In less than a 100 days D1Donnie has crashed world markets, ruined the American economy which is now facing the threat of inflation, has turned his back on addressing the cost of living for ordinary Americans, has hacked Ukraine and Zelensky in the eyes of the world and has bungled negotiations with I get on well with the cold blooded murderer, Putin.... and has destroyed America's presence as a world authority.

Let alone the madness of the threat to invade Greenland, claiming the Panama Canal and Canada and building Casino's in Gaza.

The country is a mess he said throughout his election campaign and at his inauguration and that with Ol Joe sitting just behind him........question is, if it was a mess then what is it now?

You're right, Denise, I can feel how "indifferent" you are to Trump.

Denny, you're a bit of a gambling man............... NZ's too straight, our bookies here, their market's strictly the sports arena but I've heard that in Aus you can place a bet on the country's general election etc.

Harry Brookes, ( English cricket ) at age 14 his grandparents placed a bet that he would one day play for England. Cagey granny won't say how much they won.

That's an aside, my intention's to place a bet that Trump won't be POTUS in two years time ... might be ill health, impeachment, death or undeniable batshittery. Besides ouMaaik, who knows?

Can you help with a betting agency ?

I'll take that bet with you, Blo. I'll give you 3-1 odds.

But just like Dave, you'll never pay when you lose.

BB.....There's several betting agencies, I'll check it out.....let you know in the morning.
