Donald Trump just got hit with an absolutely crushing poll from Fox News. Disapproval of his handling of the economy is at an all-time high. His ratings on inflation are staggeringly awful. Historically friendly voter groups—whites, rural Americans, the working class—are all turning away from him in surprising numbers. It’s no accident that on Thursday, Trump let out a rambling diatribe, demanding Republicans pass his onerous voter suppression legislation.
