"The Late Night host spoke about yesterday's dramatic meeting in the situation room to discuss Epstein, an ongoing crisis that has seen the president becoming wildly unpopular. Meyers said that Trump is by all the accounts the most unpopular president of all time and up until this point has only been able to hang on to power because he has a tight grip on the Republican party no matter what he did or how bad things got."
"But a new poll shows that only 33% of American adults approve of how the president is managing the government, a figure that's down from March with the fall driven by Republicans or independents. Meyers called this a meaningful and real development and it's not coming out of thin air with Trump pissing off Maga in multiple ways. In a recent interview with Fox News host Laura Ingraham, the president defended the importance of H-1B visas, saying that workers need to come from outside the US as there's not enough people with certain talents. Meyers joked that Trump is now saying you can't expect me to make America again with only Americans."
Rising tensions within the Republican Party have appeared as Donald Trump loses support from his base amid the Jeffrey Epstein scandal and a dramatic situation‑room meeting. Approval for the president fell to 33% among American adults, down from March with declines driven by Republicans and independents. Defending H‑1B visas and saying some workers must come from abroad drew criticism for appearing negative about American workers. Additional comments targeting unemployed people intensified backlash. The Epstein matter has sparked panic in Trump world and visible difficulty with reporters, including refusing questions, compounding damage to his standing and fracturing his coalition.
