That every American doesn't approve of Trump's handling of protests is shameful.

Nearly half of Americans don't understand that when an illegal and immoral tactic is used against someone you don't like, it can then be used against you too. Dumb fucking Americans.

So over half of Americans aren't concerned with accelerating authoritarianism? Great.
They will be, when it affects them personally.
In other words, typical Republican thinking.
It's already affecting them personally, they've just been brainwashed into blaming the wrong people

They voted for it in the first place

If "nearly half" disprove that means more than half approve.
That's fucking disgusting.
There's always a good percentage that are indifferent or "don't know". But they're no help.
So basically the same outcome as the election. People haven't changed.

Which is the exact same as approving it.
Per the article:
47% of U.S. adults disapprove of of deploying the Marines to LA, with 34% approval.
45% disapprove the National Guard deployment, while 38% said they approve.
That leaves 19% and 17% that are undecided. The question for those would be are they uninterested or uninformed?
Who gives a shit? They've proven themselves fucking useless like the shit heels they are.

Both probably. Or just flat out too stupid to have an opinion
To be fair here and without looking up numbers, such polls tend to often show the same pattern. Something like 45% A, 30% undecided, 25% B.
So when "nearly half" disapprove it can still mean "a majority" does.

These are some depressing numbers.
47% of U.S. adults disapprove of of deploying the Marines to LA, with 34% approval.
45% disapprove the National Guard deployment, while 38% said they approve.
... An equal share — 45% — also disapprove of the protests against ICE, per Monday YouGov polling.
36% said they approve of the protests, and 19% said they are not sure.
58% of Democrats said they approved of the anti-ICE protests, compared to 15% of Republicans.
58% of Democrats said they approved of the anti-ICE protests, compared to 15% of Republicans.
I wonder how does it compare to previous iterations of large protests.
The article implied this is within historic norms for civil rights protests in the US
That's because there are hundreds of millions of racist fascists here.
That's a lot of people who saw a reporter get shot and went "I'm cool with that".
I'm joking. Most of them probably aren't paying enough attention to have seen that.
Did FOX even show that video?

That percentage is insanely low. What is wrong with the fuckers that approve?
A significant lack of education mixed with misguided hatred.

Less than the majority is depressing, but don't forget how the media is covering this. MAGA eats this shit up, obviously, but even your standard semi-informed people are getting "riots on the street of LA" bullshit on their local news outlets.
I'm actually a little surprised it's "almost half" in disapproval, given how badly this is covered. I wonder if TikTok and Bluesky are helping, the latter being obvious but the former being surprisingly good at showing what's actually happening on the ground-- at least a lot better than Meta and X options.
Yeah, also even though it's "almost half" there's more people saying disapprove than approve, so there's a large number in the "unsure" category right now, and the more we find out about who's being deported and how and what the cops will do to suppress these protests the more that disapprove number will go up
Wow, we got ALMOST half of America to understand that it's bad when presidents send the military to threaten Americans.
That almost makes me think our inevitable decline as a nation will happen slower than I originally thought.
So more than half are okay with it or don't care about it.
Nothing has changed since the election.

Between 33% and 38% of Americans shouldn't be allowed to make decisions because they are incompetent or vile. That's how many have never wavered in their support of Trump.
But I am shocked here at the extra 12+% who aren't outraged by what's happening now. Is that the 11% of Libertarians? (https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2014/08/25/in-search-of-libertarians/)
Libertarians are just right wing fascists who don't like paying taxes
Wrong. Libertarian understand that the slavery is still here. Watch the movie Jones Plantation to understand it deeper if it is not that obvious yet. Involuntary taxation is theft. Government is the largest criminal organization.
If a majority of Americans approve then the problem will not go away if Trump goes away.
lol we are cooked
To be honest part of me wants his raids to spread to other cities, especially in middle America, so it hits home to more voters. Especially his wavering voters. Some people can only recognize something if they experience it first hand.
It will spread, but not in the middle of the country. He's allegedly targeted blue cities like New York, Chicago, Seattle next.
Our new chief of police here in Seattle just said that he expects to be arrested and imprisoned for protecting the city against these raids. Sounds like he might be a keeper. We sure could use it.
Only half?
Nearly half. So, not even half—according to their polls, which could be poorly created.

Pathetic.
half of America is dumber than a sack of potatoes
It’s ok because it will never happen to me! Huh? These politicians have zero policy agenda and thrive on having an other to rally against? They’ll go after me for the pettiest of things like living while poor to fill their private prison quotas once all the gross gays and browns are reduced to cinder? Nah. This is America. It can’t happen here!
