President Donald Trump might not be the "central figure" in U.S. politics for much longer, a top pollster has suggested, speculating that America may be ready to "move on" from a man who has dominated the news agenda for over a decade. Nate Silver, writing on X, observed: "It's kind of striking how, apart from Iran, most of the Trump-related stories this summer have been boring and dumb (reflection pool, White House Correspondents' Dinner) or kind of funny (FIFA), maybe we're moving on from him being the central figure in American politics." Journalist John Harwood replied by pointing out that the killing of two people earlier this month by federal immigration agents in Maine and Texas was also newsworthy. Equally significantly, Trump's popularity is falling with non-MAGA Republicans, with 43 percent disapproving and just 55 percent approving. The president has followed a first year back in power overshadowed by the Jeffrey Epstein scandal with a second that, as Silver suggests, has been riddled with farcical episodes and self-inflicted blunders.
