What I find interesting is that as HOTPE states, Trump garnered 37% of the vote in Hawaii, however according to the link HOTPE provided, Trump's approval rating was at 28% on inauguration day, a drop of 9%, assuming that the 37% who did vote for Trump approved of what Trump's campaign promises were to be. So, what happened from election day to inauguration day?
But then as of now, his approval is at 19% - another 9% drop from inauguration day. That being said, I don't know if it's fair to say the 37% who voted for Trump and the 28% approval on inauguration day is a fair measurement. Was the initial 9% difference voters who said, "screw Biden" over Kamala versus "Trump's my guy?" Or was it a real 9% drop from November to January?
As for my personal opinion of the tanked approval ratings being primarily due to people who voted for Trump becoming sick and tired of the constant and endless chaos being created day in and day out, I can only speculate any other reasons as to why, but in keeping with the request of the OP, I'll just say "all of the above."
Can we ever go back to a tan suit?
