'The McCain family deserves better,' Republican senator says as Trump continues to lash out

The Hill

The American public's approval of Congress reached a two-year high, according to the results of a new Gallup poll.

The poll released Tuesday found that 26 percent of respondents approve of Congress's job performance, the highest mark since February 2017, when 28 percent said they approved.

Approval ratings have historically been low for Congress. According to Gallup, the average approval rating for Congress has been 30 percent since 1974.

Since President Trump took office, the approval rating for Congress has ranged from a low of 13 percent to a high of 28 percent.

and being a RWNJ doesn't mean that his time as a POW didn't happen. Him staying when he could have gone was heroic, no matter which way you cut it.

Even as a RWNJ, he was still much better than that horrible orange thing.
