The Supreme Court has handed down a major loss for the Trump Administration, the Administration cut off intelligence sharing with the Ukrainians, and Trump's disapproval rating soars.
I believe in the CBS polling it was 51% republicans, 27% independents, 20% democrats, which would explain the low disapproval rating (and I agree with your statement)
CBS polling has been really sketchy lately and I saw their post about it and they’re officially off my “maybe I can trust them” list. They definitely didn’t provide appropriate context.
Yes, that’s what I read too. So basically they’re reporting that most republicans approved of trump’s drivel, but they’re not reporting that the rest of the country either disapproved or stayed away in droves.
I am a yogi and I meditate almost every day! I’m also an empath which is causing my mental anguish in this moment. The collective energy of the country is overwhelmingly angry and I feeeeeeel it.
So I am reattaching my head to my body .... aka live in my head and my body at the same time.. even if it is just for 5 minutes a day. I just did it and it was wonderful! Message me if you want to move/shake with me weekdays 5PM EST for 5 minutes... oh I want to dance with somebody =;)
I'm an empath too! And have been desperately trying to quiet the "noise" of the pain and suffering coming down due to his cruelty....but in ways that are not good for me. :( Today I am back to meditation daily...I know that helps a lot. After that shit show last night, my entire being is hurting.
We have been traumatized as a collective. There's no reason to expose yourself to something that will hurt or upset you when you can get the bullet points from a legitimate source the next day. I try to avoid hearing or seeing him as much as possible. As a fellow empath, I understand. The world feels so heavy and it feels like it gets heavier every day. Don't forget to take care of yourself, lean on your community, and try to find joy in the small things. Evil never wins in the end. Hang in there, friend.
Same! I am practicing making microagressions -- flying a pride flag in my yard, leaving comments in Spanish on his "English is the official language" post, etc.
*air hug* I understand. We need to be there for each other. Take care of yourself first and foremost. We're all going to have to be our most fearless selves. We can do this, together.
I hear you! I'm actually going away on a wellness retreat for 7 weeks and won't have access to any technology! It scares me a bit that I won't know what's going on but I think it's going to be extremely liberating too.
I understand completely. I have been depressed since the election. I just could not get it under control, even though I have been seeing a therapist.
On Monday, my doctor started me on antidepressants. I fought going on them, but I am really struggling to stay afloat. I felt I needed to at least give the antidepressants a try.
Both me and my mom tried to watch Trump’s speech, but it was the same damn vomit coming out of his mouth and we couldn’t take it for very long and we just tuned out and went to something else
Republicans love to support lies. I watched that entire dreadful so called speech and he lied, mislead and bullied. He made a mockery of those families and individuals who experienced loss. They stood up 30+ times in support of his lies which is why their constituents are angry.
I did not watch the lying shit show, I tried but when he compared himself to George Washington and the clapping puppets were really sending my blood pressure thru the roof. Thank you Aaron for the update.
I didn’t watch because I didn’t want to watch him lie over and over again. So clearly, those people that watched were mostly his supporters anyway

Another reason to support independent media. We are not going to get unbiased reporting from CBS News

Same. I didn’t watch either. Fuck him.
I didn't watch either. This is a fuckin shit show!
I did not watch the speech
SAME
I unfortunately watched but didn't see a poll to express my discontent. I didn't watch it on the website, so that's probably my fault.
I didn't watch for the same reason.
Same.
Didn't watch either.
Watching him has become extremely triggering for me. I am struggling to not sink into depression.
This might sound cliche, however, make sure you take time to practice self love. I am doing yoga that focuses on body base intervention.
I take a boxing class. I always imagine that I am beating the shit out of him. It’s actually very cathartic.
Love this

Thank you! 💝
I'm an empath as well and it's extremely difficult, particularly in times like where Zelenskyy was treated so horrifically. Sending you love.
Hello fellow empaths! Me too! Want to connect and support? Struggling as well

I'm so sorry. It was really hard.
I increased my anti depressant right before the inauguration. Do not regret that at all.
I added a second one last July. My BP went up before that and is still up.
Me too! With PTSD and Migraines, it's rough!
I can't let Trump control me...
I will always #StandUp and fight!
I just watch video clips.
Same here. Hang in there and take news breaks.
Every time I try to take a news break, when I come back, 5 entirely new circles of hell have been revealed!

Same same. And I’m in the highest dose of my antidepressant.
CBS is giving false numbers I've already submitted complaint before last night.

Trump is a F Traitor!!!!!
Omg to cut of Ukraine, this is them supporting Russia. This is awful
I did not watch and I continue to be baffled by the STUPIDITY of so many people 🤪
I wouldn’t trust krasnov about anything. He spews nothing but lies
Good morning! So good to hear the news from a source I trust this morning

Yeah most people against him are not taking polls and watching his bullshit. FDT
I didn’t watch it. I already had a migraine and didn’t want to take a chance that my brain would explode. 🤷♀️
I am a university researcher and the #1 best advice I was given in grad school; you can always manipulate the data, to say what you want it to.
Let’s poll how many Americans were too disgusted to watch the speech.

Lord, it hasn't been 100 days yet? Feels like 100 years.
