It's not hard to understand why. Just take the materialistic view. He hasn't delivered much of anything tangible to the "downscale" voters who formed his core base of support in 2016. (Except never-ending Culture War theatrics, which only goes so far)

Trump thinks doing things like becoming even more flamboyantly pro-Israel will help him make up the difference electorally. OK, maybe with approximately 1,000 elderly Jews in Miami-Dade. Not writ large. The core economic rationale for his 2016 victory is quickly evaporating

And as one of the very few people who consistently declared that Trump's victory in 2016 was much likelier than almost everyone else insisted, I don't want to be accused of being some petty liberal shill for observing this!

Its disgusting how citizens United and other things have ruined America so quickly. Not to mention all the politicians who are proving to be nothing but greedy biased slaves to the highest bidder. They are selling out America to whoever has the most cash or oil. The ppl lose

Doubling the child tax credit sure helped us out. Even more next year since we had our fourth in February.

Sad, but the way of all political classes who chose to work with the establishment. They end up devouring you.

Trump has done a lot that should keep support with less affluent whites (jobs, wages, manufacturing plants returning). But he’s also up against a national media working to take him down who would never report on a single accomplishment. Just nonstop Russia, Cohen, Nazis, etc.

Wow, brilliantly stated, Michael. Wish it weren't true. "His support among the less-affluent whites who backed him in 2016 is eroding." That's sad, too. People are looking for hope and change and they get more of the same from their elected politicians.

Bringing back a classic George Carlin joke, the gop should primary dt with McCain, pence could still be “vice” president. A deceased man or maybe this broom would be more competent.

The vast majority of Trump's governing agenda is standard-issue GOP, which was predictable from the start. A few notable differences here and there, but straight GOP for the most part.

anybody with a job is enjoying their tax cut. I paid a lower percentage than I did last year without any fancy loopholes.
