Jessica Tarlov, the liberal voice on Fox News’ The Five, is facing criticism for telling a seemingly improbable story about a Trump voter she claims to have recently spoken with, who now allegedly regrets his presidential choice.
Appearing on a left-leaning podcast, the Fox News host recalled receiving a call late last year from a “college student in the Midwest” who “reached out” for her advice on how to pursue a career in politics. According to Tarlov, the young man quickly voiced his disappointment in Trump after voting for him in November.
“We got on the phone, he emailed me last week, and he said I could share this,” she said, reading from the email. “‘I really appreciated hearing what you have had to say last week on “The Five” and your podcast with Scott… You’ve really opened my mind on current things that are going on as someone who voted for Trump, and you’ve been communicating a lot of frustrations I’ve been feeling.”
She added, reading for the alleged email: “‘I’ve been feeling alongside some family and friends who didn’t expect all the chaos.’ And then he puts in parentheses, ‘not to mention the tariffs as our family owns a small business where all our products are made in China.’”
Tarlov, during the podcast segment, equated that to mean younger Americans who voted for Trump are now regretting their decision.
“It only took two weeks. This level of chaos, for him to feel strongly enough that he would write that down,” she added.
But several users on social media questioned the validity of Tarlov’s tale.
“Of all the things that never happened, this never happened the most,” wrote the popular conservative account Catturd.
“Nobody is regretting their vote. Not a single person LOL,” another person replied. “Fakest news of the day,” joked another.
“I’ll take ‘things that never happened’ for 500 Alex,” wrote another user.
Trump’s approval rating has managed to hold firm and remain in the positive exactly one month after taking office and amid a rapid introduction of his agenda.
Trump has recorded at least 50 percent approval ratings in three recent surveys, Newsweek reported, adding that the “surveys suggest that most Americans approve of the job the president is doing, despite other polls indicating that Trump’s favorability ratings have declined since his first few days back in office.”
A SurveyUSA poll of 2,000 adults found that a majority (51 percent) approve of Trump’s job as president, while 45 percent disapprove, giving him a net approval score of +6 points.
A separate Morning Consult poll, also released on Tuesday, showed that 50 percent of voters approve of Trump’s job as president, while 47 percent disapprove, Newsweek’s report continued.
Eli Yokley, U.S. politics analyst for Morning Consult, and Cameron Easley, head of U.S. political analysis, noted in their analysis that Trump’s approval rating has “stabilized” after three consecutive weeks of decline.
Additionally, a recent survey from a Republican polling firm indicated that Trump maintains a strong approval rating.
The Napolitan News survey, conducted by Scott Rasmussen and RMG Research, showed Trump’s approval at 55 percent, with a disapproval rating of 43 percent, giving him a net approval score of +12 points, Newsweek added.
Trump’s approval rating among this group has remained above 50 percent since he returned to the White House on January 20, peaking at 57 percent during his inauguration week.
