Wednesday: Trump Hits 33 and MAGA Starts Flinching

Trump's approval hit 33 percent on Wednesday, August 19, and Rush Lindell and Reagan aren't letting the White House spin it away. Five separate pollsters are landing in the same range, echoing the December 2017 floor Trump eventually clawed back from. This episode digs into whether MAGA erosion is real or just noise, testing old predictions against fresh NBC/Newsweek identification numbers and a Politico finding on Trump voters ditching the label. Rush and Reagan break down a historic shift in economic trust toward Democrats, sliding Republican support for the Iran war even among Trump's own base, and what Cook Political Report's House forecast means for the midterms. They close by staking specific, falsifiable predictions for Labor Day approval numbers. Topics covered: the 33 percent approval number and whether it's a pattern or a blip, the MAGA identification split and what's driving it, the economy and Iran war polling dragging Republicans down, and the House math behind 2026's midterm stakes.
