Well, not acknowledging that Trump is "sinking low," aren't you describing how the Left continue to support Obama, no matter how much corruption is revealed ...more every day? Spying on American citizens? Wow. That's about as bad as it gets.

He has nowhere to go but down.
Hate to tell you, but his approval is a LOT higher that that. But, nice try. (Do you work for CNN?)

Colluding with Russia is worse.

You people had better wise up.
I think you need to wise up and realize that he isn't going to get anything done that he promised during his campaign. He is not and will not be the best president in our short history.

I honestly hope I am wrong and he achieves everything he said he would do but I am not confident at all about those prospects. We all win if he just does his job right.

Do you have concrete Proof?

Can you provide us his approval rating from a source that you approve of?

As far as Trump's support, whether they support him right now is not the question. It's whether they support him if and when more details keep coming out. I mean, the GOP supported Nixon right up until he day they stopped supporting him. That's likely to happen with Trump, too. The closer we get to the mid terms, the more we'll know what kind of support he really has.

I don't know what will happen between now and then. I just know that political support is often very fleeting.
At that point, if it ever comes, it will be Pence.

Dems might want to be careful what they wish for.

What more do you want from Trump voters?

Do you expect them to turn Democrat?

Don't hold your breath.
Nope, I for one do not expect any True Republican to become a Democrat, heck I am neither.


What I would like, and since you are a Paul fan I might expect more honesty, is for One supporter to admit that we as Americans made an awful mistake putting this guy in the Whitehouse. I am not saying we should have supported Hillary, I am saying the GOP did this to themselves by having so many candidates, and that worked is favor. Maybe not today, or tomorrow, but the deeper this goes I would hope that at least a couple of you would be honest enough to admit that the GOP screwed up big time this time around by letting this guy in your Party to begin with. Maybe a better vetting procedure to run for the GOP nomination is in order, something simple like have been a member of the GOP for at least 4 years, that alone would have dealt with the issue, just a suggestion, but pass it on if you think it has merit.

I don't see why not.

Not turn... but, vote.

This is why I do not get party loyalty.

It's stupid. Parties are arbitrary.

People are not.

I vote for the candidate, regardless of party, that I either like or that is the one that is most qualified, whether I like that candidate or not.

Case in point... I voted for W in 2000. I did not like Gore.

I voted Kerry in 2004. I didn't like Kerry, but W's administration needed to go.

So, yeah. I don't vote party.

Period.

Being an independent allows one to vote for the better candidate in a strategic fashion.

Trump is a horrible president.
