Looking at this "Trump Approval Rating" graph, I COULD BE WRONG, but I'm not seeing the greatest president since Lincoln

Trump’s approval rating on his handling of the soaring cost of living has fallen so sharply that it has broken the scale of a pollster’s graph.

On Thursday, pollster G. Elliot Morris shared results from a Strength in Numbers/Verasight poll conducted in April, posting a chart on X tracking the president’s approval among voters across multiple issues. The graph covered areas including deportations, immigration, trade, healthcare, civil rights, democracy, and inflation/cost of living.

That’s who he’s comparing himself to now, not those lightweights Washington and Lincoln.
