Even a longtime MSNBC liberal admits it: Trump’s strength is unmatched — and half the country knows it.
Liberal Media Veteran Drops a Bombshell About Trump’s Popularity
In a surprising moment of honesty, former MSNBC host Chris Matthews gave a stinging reality check to his fellow liberals — and it’s music to the ears of millions of conservatives across America.
During a recent sit-down with Charlie Rose, Matthews acknowledged what mainstream outlets like CNN and The New York Times refuse to admit: President Donald J. Trump is gaining ground, not losing it.
“Honestly, I think the momentum is shifting in Trump’s favor,” Matthews said. “As for those polls—they just don’t seem credible to me.”
This eye-opening comment comes as legacy media outlets scramble to paint Trump as unpopular and out of touch — but even their own former stars are starting to call their bluff.
Polls Can Be Misleading, Matthews Says — And Trump Still Has the Edge
While some recent polls show President Trump’s approval rating in the high 30s to low 40s — including Gallup and CNN’s Poll of Polls — Matthews cautioned viewers not to trust those numbers blindly.
“His strength is still greater than the Democratic strength,” Matthews continued. “Obama still has charisma — however Trump possesses strength. And voters want strength in a leader.”
This is a crucial insight. In an age of economic uncertainty, rising crime, and global instability, Americans are desperate for strong leadership — and Trump delivers.
Why Even Liberals Are Starting to Admit Trump’s Appeal
Matthews’ comments highlight what many in the conservative movement have said all along: Trump represents more than just a political figure — he symbolizes strength, resolve, and America First values.
It’s why he continues to pack stadiums, drive record-breaking small-dollar donations, and poll strong with working-class voters — even in states Biden narrowly carried in 2020.
And while the media obsesses over poll numbers, millions of Americans see what’s really happening: Trump is rising — and the liberal establishment knows it.
