With the almost daily developments breaking surrounding Donald Trump and his scandals and the fact that conservatives don't believe any of it or even care if it were true and Congress won't do anything because they don't want to upset their base, I wonder if people will start to accept this incompetence as a new normal, helping Trump's approval ratings? I can easily see Trump's approval ratings getting a bump if we merely go a week without any bad news.
Trump has already received a significant bump this week because his Middle East trip, for the most part, went better than expected. This is despite the fact that new developments are still breaking daily.

I think it has happened this week. He's been out of the country, we haven't been barraged by his daily press conference, very little rantings/ravings. It's been restful, almost.

I remember during the "pre-show" of one presidential debate last year, a CNN analyst was saying "Trump just has to keep it together for 90 minutes to win this debate." They didn't mean he had to debate well or make good points. They meant he just had to not go off the rails for 90 minutes, and he'd "win the debate."
After the debate, the analysis of it was saying "well, Trump won because he managed to keep it together for 30 minutes." That was all. He didn't go off the rails for a short amount of time... BAM... presidential material!
The bar is so low for this man. And he keeps moving it lower for himself. And his supporters just follow along.
I think many people have tuned out of politics and simply fall prey to regurgitated headlines that when stated often enough, are simply believed without evidence.
People have just tuned out. They don't want to hear any more. One thing after another. It's too much.
Yesterday, I mentioned to two friends that even Fox was calling BS on the Trump's bogus spy conspiracy. Neither one even knew what I was talking about.
They knew Roseanne had been canned for tweeting racist nonsense, the NFL had sided with Trump, Gassama scaled four balconies to rescue a kid, the lava was flowing in Hawaii, and a town in Maryland had just experienced its second 1,000 year flood.
But they have tuned out to Trump news.
It's like a dog who barks constantly. After a while, you just tune it oui.
Are you serious? Of course a lot of us have tuned out "Trump news", because it isn't news. The libs here follow his every word and tweet and breathlessly declare them lies as do the halfwits at CNN with their 24/7 TDS. Every time I go to work some lib comes over with a big smile and says "hey, did you hear what Trump said today?" No, because it doesn't matter. You see, the rest of us normals are watching the economy improve, our taxes go down while home prices go up and best of all our children are getting great jobs. So much for the "new normal" the morons in the Obama administration and the MSM told us we had to accept.
And what are Democrats trying to sell us? Anger and hatred. Oh yeah, and they want to raise taxes again, they're obsessed with a porn star and they keep pushing the Russian fairy tale.
We don't care if Trump likes to bluster...he's getting things done. In less than two years he's cured the curse Obama and liberal Democrats inflicted on this country and made everyone's life better. I'll make a prediction now...Trump in 2020 by an epic landslide.
PS...if Trump takes a strong stab at student debt Democrats will lose millenials forever.

I get Trump fatigue, but then the libs energize me on liking Trump again when I see non stop coverage of black guys getting kicked out of starbucks for loitering, Rosanne getting canceled, cops accused of being racist, racist this, racist that, white men suck, white privilege, etc....
