The numbers don’t show Trump is losing support if one goes by his overall job approval/disapproval numbers. What I think is happening with those protesters is they’re the ones who were angry and upset Trump won are now becoming angrier and more upset at Trump and his shenanigans. There’s still a plurality of Americans who approve of the job Trump has done so far as there was back on 20 Jan.

28 Jan 87% of Harris voters disapprove/93% of Trump voters approved, 82% of democrats disapprove/94% of republicans approved of the job Trump was doing after one week in office.
Today 91% of Harris voters disapprove/92% of Trump voters approve, 91% of democrats disapprove/90% of republicans approve. A slight difference, but given the polls have a MOE of plus or minus 3 points, there’s really no movement or no movement outside the MOE.
I expected Trump’s overall job approval to drop ever since he started issuing these executive orders, which going by the numbers hasn’t happened. I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised or that my expectations are not being met. I expected the 91 federal indictments to drive Trump out of the race. I expected the two guilty verdicts in the two New York civil cases to drop his polling number drastically. None of that Happened. Besides throwing out conventional wisdom and traditional standards when it comes to Trump, I ought to throw my crystal ball out the window too.
