An analyst suggested Monday that President Donald Trump's upcoming State of the Union speech this week could repel or further annoy Americans if he continues to blame people for feeling unappreciated.
CNN senior White House correspondent Kristen Holmes revealed that voters, who have shown a serious disapproval for Trump's second presidency in a series of dismal polls, could be put off by his potential comments.
"The problem is that the President has grown increasingly frustrated because he thinks he isn't getting enough credit for anything he does. If that frustration comes out tomorrow, it is likely to turn voters/Americans off," Holmes explained.
Trump's approval rating among independents has now plummeted to a new low as his party approaches the midterm elections this fall, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS. Questions over his handling of affordability concerns and his overall priorities have prompted concerns among voters.
"Just 32% of Americans now say that Trump has had the right priorities, while 68% say he hasn’t paid enough attention to the country’s most important problems," CNN reported. "That’s the president’s most negative reading on that question to date during either of his terms in office. At the same time, Americans say, 61% to 38%, that Trump’s policies will move the country in the wrong direction rather than the right one. And Trump’s job approval rating among all adults remains mired at 36%."
