President Moon’s Approval Rating Drops to 41%; the Lowest of His Presidency

I am really not surprised at all by this decline, it was actually very predictable considering his economic and North Korea policies had little chance of ever working:

President Moon Jae-in’s approval rating has hit the lowest level of his presidency while his disapproval rating reached its highest point, according to a Gallup Korea poll released on Friday.

According to the weekly poll, Moon’s approval rating was 41 percent and 49 percent gave negative responses to Moon’s performance. 

Moon’s approval rating, which skyrocketed in his early months of the presidency, has now dropped to the level of the share of votes he won in the presidential election two years ago. Moon has lost additional supporters, mostly moderates, that he had attracted since he first took office.

Moon started his presidency in May 2017 with an over 80 percent approval rating and maintained strong figures throughout his first year. In May 2018, shortly after Moon’s first summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, his approval rating was 83 percent, according to Gallup Korea.

Keep in mind that President Moon’s approval rating dropped to 41% even though he forcibly took control of most of the major media in South Korea and has been imprisoning opposition journalists.

How long before he declares an emergency to squash the free media and become absolute dictator? Park Chung Hee he is not. I’m certain the UNC can monitor the situation on the peninsula from Japan, including that sh*t for brains being forced to his knees and put in chains by Kim Fatty the Third. I’d rather not waste US lives for this commie b*st*rd

He’ll just jail more journalists and threaten TV networks. That’s how Commie Moon rolls.

Where’s a good general when you need one? This is something that an old fashion military coup could really straighten out!
