Temer's approval rating is plummeting, even in maternity wards.
Michel Temer has never been as unpopular as he is now; according to columnist Lauro Jardim of Globo, the Planalto Palace already has qualitative research showing that his popular approval rating is the lowest since his inauguration – when it was already very low, close to 6%; he also reports that the president is unpopular even in maternity wards; a survey by the BabyCenter website states that "Michel" was one of the names that fell the most in preference among mothers registering their babies, dropping more than 100 positions in the ranking; the reasons for the disapproval of Temer are the growing perception that there was a coup in Brazil and that the current government, which promised confidence, is deepening the recession.
247 - In July of this year, a survey by the Ipsos institute reported that only 6% of Brazilians considered Michel Temer's administration "good or excellent".
However, a note published this Sunday by Lauro Jardim reports that the Presidential Palace already has internal polls showing that Temer's approval rating, which was already very low, has fallen even further – in other words, it is likely close to zero.
On another note, Jardim also says that, in the coming days, a survey by the BabyCenter website, with 163 babies registered in Brazil, will demonstrate that the current president has become unpopular even among mothers.
"Michel" was one of the names that fell the most in national preference, dropping more than 100 positions – today, the name is in position 371.

He, however, retired at age 55 with full benefits, as demonstrated by the Notícias Comentadas channel:
