Summary
Elon Musk’s job approval dropped to 41%—his lowest since joining the Trump administration—according to a Marquette Law School poll.
His favorability fell to 38%, while 58% disapproved of his work leading DOGE.
The decline follows backlash over Musk’s political involvement, including his $22 million support of Brad Schimel, who lost Wisconsin’s Supreme Court race.
Musk’s alignment with controversial Trump policies, such as calls to annex Canada, has further eroded public support.
I wonder what my approval ratings are.
I approve of you.
Shit, now he will never win another election
You say it as if there will be an election
There never was. Pretty sure that’s the joke. No one elected him. No one nominated him for anything. No one confirmed him.
He deserves far worse
This is just the beginning
Alternative headline:
“38% of Americans are so addicted to NewsMax, Fox News, and OAN that they can’t stop sucking the toes of billionaires to “own the libs”, even as he cuts billions of dollars for them and the veterans, children, poor, sick, and needy.”
Millions of people will die for the sake of Hairplug Himmler’s fragile ego and masculinity.
Don’t forget his own source of propaganda, twitter.
*Xitter
41% still think he’s doing a good job. Wow. Just… wow.
“But if I don’t lick boots, who am I?”
- Bootlickers
It’s not like he’s elected lol, he doesn’t have constituents
This motherfucker was not elected. His approval ratings do not matter because nobody voted for him. Jesus fucking Christ.
Talking about his “approval rating” legitimizes Musk’s “role”. Not Senate-confirmed, unlike the departments he’s decimating. And after the damage is done, they’re going to sweep him out of there next month and say “he doesn’t even work here anymore!”
Not to defend Musk or Trump, but this is literally what Trump campaigned on. Trump said he’d be dictator on day one, and that Musk would be in charge of gutting agencies. Anyone who is surprised by their actions after months of projecting their plan is naive and/or ignorant.
I agree but that’s irrelevant. The public’s approval of a person only matters if that person was elected to a position by the public. Musk was not elected, so his approval ratings amongst the public do not matter.
Yep and the media’s general complicity with this aberration of a government, even citing an “approval rating” of someone who bought and forced their way into an illegitimate position.
How is this cunt able to walk the streets?
why do you think he wears his toddler son as a helmet?
why does he have an approval rating at all. he’s just there hanging out and messing stuff up.
He doesn’t even wear a suit!
Reminder, he is not an elected official approval ratings don’t mean shit for this POS.
FWIW, approval ratings don’t matter for elected officials either. They have some meaning for a couple of months leading up to an election, sometimes.
If it translates to massively less Tesla sales, then it means something. Tesla’s valuation is so stupidly high because of musk. The big financial institutions are betting on him because they’ve done very well by him in the past. If tesla crashes and burns hard enough, his toxicity will spread to all his other ventures as well and his bullshit smart guy persona will be left in the dust.
Agreed hopefully this is just the beginning of the downfall of musk.
41% supports this man. Its 2025. Iq levels have dropped significantly in America. Brave New World is on the doorstep.
I know, it’s terrifying.
Ok so where’s my soma hookup? Far more like 1984 in my opinion.
Deny, depose, deport his ass. SpaceX -> junior division of NASA. Tesla, new CEO. Do whatever with the rest. Nationalize all stock, people making < $50_000 get a dividend
It’ll be pretty funny when he gets scapegoated
Given that both Elon Musk and I have a combined wealth of $330B, why does nobody care about my approval rating?
On a serious note, I always thought approval ratings were reserved for politicians. But I guess I don’t understand lots of things.
Jesus fucking christ the stock is 282 right now. That is a 5% gain just today. What the actual fuck.
I wonder what’s going on behind the scenes to get that up… not my field so idk
Politico report - admin leaked that Elon is supposedly going to take a step back from the admin to “focus on his businesses”.
You’d think that today’s earlier report about Q1 shipments overall being down 14% year-over-year would way outweigh that, but Tesla prices are 98% vibe-based and 2% how the company is actually doing.
