Trump’s Pro-Putin Posture

Let's start with the big story, the midterms two weeks away.

And since, as you all know, that there are a report card on how the president is doing, Let me give you a recent poll, a new poll from the Washington Post.

Donald Trump's approval rating is 33%, a record low.

Disapproval, 66%.

Forgive me for stating the obvious.

This is not good news for Republicans.

I want to talk about five key battleground states.

By battleground, I mean toss-up states.

I'm going to leave Michigan out of this, even though I could include it in the list.

But the five I want to talk about are Maine, Texas, Kansas, Iowa, and Ohio.

Except for Maine, they're all solid red states where Trump is one every time he's wrong.

But they're toss-up states.

They're too close to call.

Why is that? I think the answer is Donald Trump.

Now, I gave you a Washington Post poll.

Let me be very clear.

Polls can be wrong.

As a matter of fact, according to the Financial Times, they did, it's not deep research, but they'd say polls consistently underestimated support for Donald Trump in the last three presidential elections.

And he won two of them.

So they can be wrong.

Personally, I don't think they're wrong, but they could be wrong.

And the reason those are toss-up states, as I say, is because of Donald Trump's massive unpopularity.

Independents have already abandoned Donald Trump.

So this is what it comes down to, and this is very important, my friends, very important.

Will Republican voters come home on Election Day? Will they vote for Donald Trump because they're Republicans? I'm sorry, for Donald Trump's supported candidates, not Donald Trump.
