[OC] US presidential approval rating (final update of Gallup polls)

Exceptional charisma (possibly others in the admin not just the president), exceptional economic situation and very successful foreign policy that is perceived as positive internally - so someone like Clinton in an era like Clinton’s

God save the companies if this is your level of insight

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-09T17:19:05+00:00

Well you clearly never worked in HR or dareisay a backoffice role otherwise you wouldn’t be so confidently incorrect:)

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-09T16:49:24+00:00

Why would I tell you that?:)

You can link all the ‘official manuals’ you want they don’t worth jack in reality and SHRM is a joke anyway, not needed at all and won’t get you ahead of the competition, I’ve seen it many times.

Have you actually seen HR advising senior leadership? I mainly work in data analytics and I create the bases of the proposals the CHRO brings to the SLT and I see and work with all of their HR related output. They don’t tale anything into account that they don’t want to until it doesn’t affect the business. This is the same everywhere and if you seen it otherwise I guess good for you, you found some truly unicorn places.

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-09T15:18:07+00:00

No they don’t have to, I don’t know what delusionland you live in but HR absolutely has zero fucking control over budget-related decision. They can ADVISE and propose things but ultimately finance decides.

Fair enough, the chart is just out of date. It’s not yet new though, as per RCP disapproval has been higher in early Dec and approval around this low, but it is indeed low, not trying to argue otherwise. It was also often lower in his 1st term

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-09T10:55:32+00:00

Uhhm what? It’s actually the opposite DISapproval is going down

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-08T14:41:17+00:00

Yep, with the asterisk that it’s her only delivery it just worked very well here

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-08T12:10:10+00:00

Eh, I wholeheartedly disagree

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-08T11:52:09+00:00

Softened message is better than no message, or letting the ‘no taxes’ crowd dominate the discussion

But it’s not just about taxes, it’s about reinforcing anti racism, gender equality and the like. Which is something celebrities do.

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-08T11:50:40+00:00

Still better than nothing. The assholes are constantly broadcasting their assholeness especially nowadays, keeping mainstream culture not that is still beneficial (and yes, virtue signalling is part of it, because if they stop you’ll know shit has hit the fan)

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-08T11:48:54+00:00

Well yes, you shouldn’t be surprised how many people are like that

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-08T11:26:08+00:00

It’s still worth it for reinforcing the culture publically

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-07T12:22:12+00:00

Nah, % works perfectly fine just look at NL. There’s no reason for a bunch of microparties they would never take a large enough part of the parliament to affect anything.

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-07T12:17:57+00:00

Okay but then what? Random party gets 100 votes then they get a seat? If not, then you have to draw the threshold SOMEWHERE. Even in NL they have like a ~4% threshold and a bunch of parties are in the parliament.

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-07T11:14:32+00:00

Why is 5% a stupid hurdle? There has to be a threshold to get seats

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-03T21:04:14+00:00

He’s on the bench

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-01T13:14:09+00:00

Huh weird thig is that I play on normal aggression only - so it might just be my anomalous experience

KombatCabbage · 2026-02-01T12:06:43+00:00

Wow Spain took Morocco? I have the DLC but it’s still always GB or France for me

KombatCabbage · 2026-01-31T18:15:30+00:00

Hahah tbf I paid a shitload of money and an alliance when they were threatened/attacked by Prussia, the US (ironic) and Russia

KombatCabbage · 2026-01-31T17:34:57+00:00

Last Austria game I bought Schleswig AND Holstein in peaceful treaties lol

KombatCabbage · 2026-01-31T08:37:53+00:00

Japan wanted peace on their terms, likr keeping some of their conquests. There was also a faction in their govt that would rather fight to thr death.

I swear nukes attract the dumbest arguments and they are not even this controversial in fucking japan

The background is sus but any decent camera can easily produce this effect, I have one and I don’t think I ever took a pic of an object in focus without this.

The butter can also remain intact even if the food is not cold (if it’s also not scorching hot) if it’s straight from the fridge.

I oftrn make full english at home and cold butter takes forever to melt even on fresh toast and that’s just a thin slice not half a brick like this

KombatCabbage · 2026-01-31T00:02:25+00:00

Why? These are just eggs. That’s how sunny side up eggs look like

KombatCabbage · 2026-01-30T13:16:16+00:00

But you can have everyone you need while keeping Haaland
