The “Underwater” episode of A Republic, If You Can Keep It isn’t a tribute to Jacques Cousteau, Lloyd Bridges or the Navy’s submariners … but the reality facing Donald Trump as he approaches the 100 day mark. At this point in his administration he’s the most unpopular President this century. The only other president whose job approval has been this low after 100 days – Donald Trump in his first term. His 44% net approval is 10-to-20 points below the favorability ratings of Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama … and Joe Biden.

There’s a lot more in the politi-sphere this week:

  • Another major candidate has joined Michigan Democrats’ contest for U.S. Senate;
  • There’s a new justice on the Michigan Supreme Court, giving Democrats a 6-1 majority on the officially non-partisan bench;
  • State Republicans have been forced into an awkward 180-degree shift on a controversial proposal for Chinese-owned industrial development in west Michigan;
  • And southeast Michigan braces for an upcoming visit from America’s best known convicted criminal – Donald Trump choosing Macomb County to take a bow for what he sees as a hugely successful first 100 days.
