...and someone is seriously ignoring the FACT that Trump has lot a lot of support since being elected.
Let's go back to 25 Jan 2017, 5 days after Trump was inaugurated. Trump's favorable/unfavorable's. Nationwide, 45% favorable/47% unfavorable. democrats 13% favorable/82% unfavorable, Republicans 83% favorable/14% unfavorable and independents, 44% favorable/41% unfavorable. Question 125
The percentage of those who view Trump favorably are close to the same as they were at the end of January 2017. A 3 point drop nationwide which is right on the line of the polls margin of error of plus or minus 3 points.
What has changed is some folks who were not sure or undecided back at the end of January 2017 have come off the fence to jump into the unfavorable column. A rise of 6 points nationwide, another rise of 8 points among independents.
I'd say Trump's support is basically the same as it was at the end of January 2017. But more importantly, those who oppose him or don't like him has grown throughout his presidency. This later came from the original group that was in the undecided or not sure column.
It's high past time that we start electing Americans to congress and the presidency who put America first instead of their political party. For way too long we have been electing Republicans and Democrats who happen to be Americans instead of Americans who happen to be Republicans and Democrats.
