In a recent interview with British talk radio station LBC, actor Kelsey Grammer expressed a markedly positive view of President Donald Trump, predicting that Trump will likely be remembered as one of the best presidents in U.S. history. Grammer attributed this potential legacy to Trump’s perceived strong patriotism and his tendency to respond aggressively to criticism, stating that Trump “says if somebody comes at him, if they come at him with hate… he just sends it right back at them,” which Grammer believes “throws them off” (Yahoo Entertainment).
This optimistic assessment from Grammer stands in stark contrast to recent polling data indicating low public approval of Trump. A Focaldata/Financial Times poll released over Labor Day weekend showed Trump’s approval rating at a record low of 32%, a three-point decline from August and the lowest since the poll began in May. Additionally, Trump’s approval among Republicans slipped by 2 percentage points to 72%. Major polling averages from RealClearPolitics, The New York Times, and Silver Bulletin as of September 9 also place Trump in negative territory, with approval ratings ranging from 38% to 39.6% and disapproval ratings between 57% and 58% (Yahoo Entertainment).
