標題：D.T.’s approval rating is dropping

副標題：He is beating his own record for rapidly annoying American voters

正文：EVEN when D.T. does something well, he exaggerates. He won the popular vote last November for the first time in three tries, by a 1.5-point margin. “The mandate was massive,” he told Time. In fact, it was the slimmest margin since 2000, but it was an improvement on Mr. T.’s two previous popular-vote losses, by 2.1 points in 2016 and 4.5 points in 2020. (He was elected in 2016 through the vagaries of the Electoral College.)

知識點：exaggerate v.

to represent something as being larger, better, or worse than it really is. 夸大；夸張

e.g. She tends to exaggerate her achievements when talking to strangers. 她在和陌生人交談時總喜歡夸大自己的成就。
