Trump hits lowest approval rating of second term. Odds that Trump will be impeached again have risen above 50%. 85% CHANCE that the government shuts down AGAIN in just 2 months.

President Trump has hit his lowest approval rating since taking office for his second term in the White House, according to a Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ) polling average.

Trump’s approval rating stands at an average of nearly 42 percent, with an average disapproval rating of close to 55 percent, according to DDHQ.

“If you have a major event like basically [the] longest shutdown in history, and it also happens to be the time when Trump’s approval rating drops and then kind of stays down to a degree we haven’t quite seen in his time in office, at least the second time around, I think you have to say the shutdown’s at least part of the story,” said Geoffrey Skelley, chief elections analyst at DDHQ.

The Trump administration has been giving additional massive tax breaks to uber-wealthy corporations through under-the-radar notices, according to a report.

Through proposed regulations, the Treasury Department has offered tax relief to private equity firms, crypto companies, foreign real estate investors, and other large corporations, the New York Times first reported.

For example, in October, the IRS issued new proposed regulations that would provide breaks to foreign investors in U.S. real estate. In August, the IRS proposed a rollback of rules to prevent multinational corporations from dodging taxes by claiming duplicate losses in multiple countries.

The notices have not made headlines, but have been flagged by accounting and consulting firms.
