Or he is a brilliant salesman that sold his brand to the voters? Just for grins google Carl Icahn and conflicts of interest. He is a Trump advisor that has greatly benefited from his position as part of the 1% Trump has in his cabinet.

Just for grins again google Scott Pruitt and how Oklahoma is trying to go after his law license. There's something in there about him misleading the senate during his conformation hearing and how he used his personal email for public business. Never mind that he just allowed a banned pesticide back on the market. Ain't nobody got time for scientific facts.......

While we're all focused on the Russian connection, the corruption and conflicts of interest go unnoticed.

What about the 200 civilians killed in Mosul? Yemen raid anyone? 'our soldiers are fighting hard?" What the heck does that mean? Why were 200 more troops sent to Syria?

I think his polls are sinking because every day there seems to be more and more questions. Those of us that are informed about everything else that's going on besides the partisan bickering grow more and more weary of the nepotism and corruption that gets little attention in the media.

America first before politics people. America first. Russia is jumping for joy and toasting the corruption and division of the American people. Lets restore honor to the white house.

Of course he has not lost any of his base, I think that is pretty obvious. But the fact that you trash the approval polls as "fake" yet you reference the one that shows good news for Trump as you point out polls that show his base retention is beyond hypocritical. And unfortunately very typical of the Trump base. As long as it's good news for Trump you will pimp the source, if it's bad news it's dismissed as "fake". We are not fooled by this hypocrisy, getting pretty use to this excuse by now.

My sentiments exactly.

I voted for Clinton and generally lean to the left, although I have voted for Republicans. I am not a partisan.

Unlike a lot of people on the left, I decided to give Trump a chance. I figured, ok, maybe he'll tone down the rhetoric and emerge as a real leader.

I have completely lost confidence in President Trump. He clearly doesn't have the right personality. It's "my way or the highway" with him. He can't unite Republicans and will probably continue to alienate them.

He seems to be unable to articulate himself beyond the same canned phrases. He is humorless. He is not inspiring.

Barack Obama's defect was that he has a great personality, but was not a great politician, and a bit arrogant.

Trump will get even more unpopular because I think people are seeing through his charade. Working people who voted for him will turn against him.

Who did you hear that from, a used car salesman?

Trump's support is eroding fast.

Default Trump's base is cracking

Trump approval rating plunges with base

This is an WND article so Trump supporters can't call it fake news. WND is typically a very right-leaning news source. Trump's support among independents is down to 29% and among Republicans its down to 74%. You may think that is very high and it is, but it's down 14 points from last month. I think the first crack's in Trump's support among his base are starting to show.

74% is fairly low for your own party. Talk about buyers remorse. Except even those of us that didn't buy it will have to pay.

Well, considering many Republicans don't even consider Trump a true Republican it's not much of a surprise.

Trump will be President for four more years. That's all that matters. Get over it.
