Lo and behold. At least a few Trump voters are opening their eyes.
A poll released last month by The Wall Street Journal found that most wanted a tempered, less assertive set of policies than Trump promised in the most unbridled moments of his campaign. The Journal in recent weeks followed up with nearly two dozen of Trump’s supporters and discovered a divergence: Some expressed regrets or concerns, while many were gleeful over his early actions to shake up Washington.
Emily Anderson, from Duluth, Minn., always considered herself a Democrat but backed Trump after Kennedy dropped out of the race. Anderson aligned with Kennedy’s “Make America Healthy Again” messaging, particularly the focus on getting toxins out of food. Kennedy is now Health and Human Services secretary.
Anderson, who works with disabled adults, said Kennedy’s government role is the only bright spot for a vote she categorizes as the “biggest mistake of my life.”
She is horrified by Trump’s focus on deportations and use of Guantanamo Bay to hold migrants. She alleged that Trump has been too focused on “ridiculous” flashy moves, such as banning paper straws and renaming the Gulf of Mexico the “Gulf of America.” Her daughter’s occupational therapist has stopped taking new patients over fears that the practice will have its federal funding dry up.
“I feel so stupid, guilty, regretful—embarrassed is a huge one. I am absolutely embarrassed that I voted for Trump,” said Anderson, 30.
About a third of Americans support all or most of Trump’s policies and plans, according to a February survey by Pew Research Center. Meanwhile, 17% of those surveyed said they support some of what he is putting forward. Forty-seven percent of Americans oppose all or most of his plans. That survey had Trump with a 51% disapproval rating, with 47% of Americans saying they approve of the job he is doing as president.

This is so pathetic.
“The White House said its ongoing war of words with the Associated Press extends beyond a dispute over President Donald Trump’s controversial rechristening of the Gulf of Mexico.
The Trump administration, which blocked AP reporters from media events in recent days, said it has had issues with the news agency even before it refused to adopt the new name of “Gulf of America” for the body of water in its style guide.
“This isn’t just about the Gulf of America,” Taylor Budowich, a White House deputy chief of staff, told Axios. “This is about AP weaponizing language through their stylebook to push a partisan worldview in contrast with the traditional and deeply held beliefs of many Americans and many people around the world.”
The AP Stylebook is considered the leading style and usage guide for American English grammar in journalism. Academic institutions, journalism schools, and even other media outlets take their cues from the AP.
In recent years, the organization has made several updates that have enraged conservatives, particularly the grievance-based, anti-DEI segment of the movement”
Let’s just make it against the law to say Gulf of Mexico. Might as well…
