What friggin right does he have to close airspace over another country where we have no authority whatsoever. If he has a problem with Venezuela, take it to the United Nations where both countries are members. This whole aggressive action, from the bombing of boats to closing airspace should also been addressed by the appropriate committees in congress.

He should focus more on the merciless killing of Ukrainians by the Russians and the Palestinians by Israel.

The more we let him do without approval by congress and consequences, the more he will do. Now is the time to start limiting his actions. He has a 36% voter approval rating, 60% Disapproval.

Trump's latest approval rating is around 36% to 40%, with various recent polls showing figures within this range. For example, a recent AP-NORC poll found it to be 36%, while a Reuters/Ipsos poll indicated 40%. Recent data also shows a decline in his approval, particularly concerning his handling of the economy, with some sources reporting disapproval at 60%.
Latest figures: Recent polls from November 2025 show approval ratings between 36% and 40%.
Specific polls: An AP-NORC poll found the approval rating at 36%, while a Reuters/Ipsos poll placed it at 40%.
Economic approval: Approval for his handling of the economy is even lower, with a Fox News poll showing 38% approval and 61% disapproval.
Overall disapproval: Overall disapproval has risen, with Gallup reporting it at 60%.
