The party surrendered the House in 2018 and won it back by a sliver four years later.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Trump aired his worries in an interview with Punchbowl News, published Friday. He questioned whether the coalition that carried him back to the White House would turn out for anybody else. \u201cThe question is, will they vote?\u201d he said, before supplying his own answer: \u201cThey\u2019re angry at Republicans, but they\u2019re not angry at me.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>He told the outlet he would press his supporters to show up. Making them actually do it, he said, is \u201cthe one thing I can\u2019t do.\u201d He acknowledged the scale of their grievances during his second administration, but denied again he had anything to do with it, saying \u201ca lot of them are very angry at Republicans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Punchbowl characterized the task of driving MAGA voters to the polls without Trump running as a decade-old headache for Republicans in Congress, given turnout has proven consistently lower among his base when they know they\u2019re not voting for the president himself.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>But the polling data contradicts Trump\u2019s claims that the disillusion of Republican voters has nothing to do with him or the policies of his administration. The Silver Bulletin\u2019s polling average puts his disapproval ratings at 58.4 percent and approval ratings at 38.2 percent, for a miserable net of -20.6. The cost of living has consistently ranked chief among voter concerns, with gas prices pushed higher by his war on Iran. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>His rocky first year-and-a-half back in office has handed Democrats a clear edge in forecasts for the November polls. A CNN poll from late July gave them an 8-point lead over Republicans on the generic congressional ballot among registered voters. Among those who described themselves as \u201cextremely motivated to vote,\u201d the Democratic margin stretched to 20 points.<\/p>\n<p>The same survey found a majority saying Congress would improve if most sitting lawmakers were turfed out in November. That share ran double digits above where it sat before the Democratic wave of 2006.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=5078\">Trump Stunningly Reverses Attacks on \u2018Low IQ Thug\u2019 Democrat<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Trump also used his sit-down with Punchbowl to grade the two parties on ruthlessness. Asked whether Democrats would move to impeach him a third time, he called them \u201cvicious.\u201d His own side drew an equally harsh verdict. \u201cI think the Republicans are too nice,\u201d he said, describing them as \u201cmuch more gentle than the Democrats.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere, Trump also made some eyebrow-raising comments about Democratic Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, the minority leader whom Trump has previously called \u201cLow IQ\u201d and a \u201cTHUG.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think he\u2019s a nice guy,\u201d Trump told Punchbowl, saying he\u2019d had a \u201cgood meeting\u201d with the New York representative. Asked if he could do business with Jeffries\u2014a prospective speaker if Republicans lose the House in November\u2014Trump said: \u201cYeah, I think so.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cLook, people are harsh on me, I\u2019m harsh on them,\u201d Trump said. \u201cIt\u2019s part of the world &#8230; But I\u2019d probably get along with him very well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The president has turned on his own Senate leadership. Trump has railed against Majority Leader John Thune for what he sees as Thune\u2019s failure to get his SAVE America Act over the line, which would require proof of citizenship in order to vote in federal elections.<\/p>\n<p>Asked in the Oval Office on July 29 whether Thune should keep the job, he said: \u201cWe\u2019re going to find out, and I\u2019ll let you know.\u201d Punchbowl pressed the president on that conflict during his Thursday sit-down. \u201cHe\u2019s trying hard, I really believe that,\u201d the president said. \u201cBut, uh\u2026 if he doesn\u2019t get there, it would be unfortunate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=5077\">Vance Drags Jesus Into Fat-Shaming His MAGA Ally<\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The Daily Beast has contacted the White House for comment on this story. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donald Trump has admitted that Republicans are facing a midterm wipe-out but is already blaming it on voters\u2019 anger with his party, rather than himself personally.
