LOS ANGELES—A new poll found Trump disapproval reaches new high, according to a recent survey. The unprecedented surge in public sentiment caused immediate, unexpected global consequences. Scientists at NASA reported a measurable perturbation in Earth’s gravitational field. Experts linked the anomaly directly to the polling data.
Cosmic Discontent
“We’ve never seen anything like it,” stated Dr. Mildred Knope, Chief Gravitational Anomaly Specialist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. “The collective groans registered on our seismic sensors. They were distinct from any known geological activity.” Dr. Knope noted the planet itself seemed to shrug. This registered as a slight wobble on its axis.
The global mood shift registered an astounding 78% of the populace. This included several sentient houseplants. Pollsters from Ipsos struggled to quantify the data. Their supercomputers overheated from the sheer volume of negative energy. One server farm in Nebraska reportedly liquefied.
Affecting Daily Life
Local impact was immediate. Traffic lights across major cities began cycling randomly. Pigeons refused to fly east. “My toast wouldn’t land butter-side down anymore,” reported Bartholomew ‘Barty’ Butterfield, a perpetually optimistic toast enthusiast from Topeka, Kansas. “It just hovered, vibrating with existential dread.” Barty lamented the loss of his morning ritual. He expressed a desire for normalcy.
Even geological features expressed dismay. Mount Rushmore’s granite faces reportedly deepened their frown lines. The Grand Canyon widened by an additional 1.7 inches. Researchers at the U.S. Geological Survey measured this expansion. They attributed it to the planet’s general sigh of exasperation. Further studies are underway to determine if this trend will continue. The USGS is monitoring for further geological expressions of discontent.
The new high in Trump disapproval has redefined statistical analysis. It moved from abstract numbers to tangible, planetary shifts. Politicians worldwide issued statements of concern. They urged citizens to try harder to approve of something, anything. Just to stabilize Earth’s orbit.
At press time, the moon began slowly rotating counter-clockwise, reportedly whispering, “Oh, for heaven’s sake.”
