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.
Again… WHY DOES HE HAVE AN APPROVAL RATING?
Accepting this normalizes unelected officials having authority.
Is Trumps plan to have someone around him so universally despised that he looks good by comparison?
Why would we have an approval rating for a non elected official?
I’m pretty sure any public figure can have an un/favorability rating. There’s no rule that says you can only poll the favorability of elected officials. Taylor Swift has a favorability rating.
Guys, my approval rating is at 76% as an unelected cat owner.
He should be arrested
he deserves much much worse.
Why did they hang Toxie? o.0
He’s an illegal immigrant who lied on citizenship documents thus is committing crimes in America. According to this administration he deserves to be in cecot concentration camp.
Elon Musk’s job approval
It’s phrased in such a way that I’m reminded of politician’s approval ratings, but he’s not an elected official. Are there polls to determine the approval of persons appointed to position by the U.S. President, or are we talking about his approval as Tesla/Space X is concerned?
We need a French solution to the Musk problem.
That reminds me, I need to sharpen my guillo…uh, apparatus.
When a group of his AI company’s investors sue to block the AI company’s purchase of Twitter (because in what world did they agree to that?), the Saudi solution goes back on the table.
This motherfucker was not elected. His approval ratings do not matter because nobody voted for him. Jesus fucking Christ.
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.
MAGA supporter: Donald confirmed him. That’s good enough for me. These billionaires are for us!
Reminder, he is not an elected official approval ratings don’t mean shit for this POS.
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.
Oh, but they do. He knows he has always been a remarkably unlikable person, and his need for acceptance and respect drove him to obsessively hoard money. Now that he’s the richest man in the world (well, maybe not so much, any more), surely everybody loves him, right?
Now he’s finding out that even with all the money in the world, everybody STILL hates him, even more than ever. He has become aware that people actually despise him, and are actively working to make him fail. He has no spouse or partner, he’s had to buy his DNA Storage Units/ Human Shields by renting wombs, and the closest thing to a friend is a treasonous criminal, who despises everybody, including his own family. Without money in the equation, he has to get by on his looks, personality, and sense of humor. IOW, he’s screwed as a human.
I love that he is deeply, deeply unhappy and lonely. All those Nazi Fucks deserve their misery.
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.
I really hope he’s stupid enough to fail to understand that this is why most of the ruling class is smart enough to keep their mouth shut in public. He’s the best advertisement of all time for “Billionaires do not deserve the wealth they have”. Keep talking Musky.
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!
Jesus fucking christ the stock is 282 right now. That is a 5% gain just today. What the actual fuck.
Think they’re buying the dip right now. Warren Buffet bet on BYD at the start of the EV car revolution. That’s where the smart money is and will likely stay
We can only hope the dip keeps dipping.
How is this cunt able to walk the streets?
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
