Alabama, Female Empowerment and Holiday Celebration

In the latest episode of the "Politics. Policy. Polling. Pop Culture" podcast, Margie Omero and Kristen Soltis Anderson delve into the numbers driving the week's biggest stories.

One of the key topics discussed is the declining approval of President Trump among Republicans. According to Pew Research, Trump's approval rating among his party has dropped significantly. In the last two months, there has been a 3-point decline, and since he took office, the drop has been a substantial 9 points. Currently, only 55% of Republicans believe Trump is improving the federal government's operation, down from 76%. Additionally, 53% disapprove of his handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case, with younger Republicans being more critical.

The podcast also touches upon the political context in Alabama, where the Alabama Republican Party held a notable event on August 1, 2025, featuring RNC Chairman Michael Whatley, who was appointed by Trump. However, specific polling data related to Alabama politics was not mentioned in the episode summary or the search results.

Regarding women's workplace challenges, no direct mention or polling information related to this topic was found in the search results or the referenced podcast episode summary.

Other polls mentioned in the episode include those conducted by Monmouth on Christmas, Emerson, Foxnews, Monmouth, Survey Monkey, and an unspecified AL poll in Alabama. The podcast also lifts the hood on the numbers, revealing the hidden secrets of the public's mind.
