For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.
Rule 5: Be excellent to each other. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.

He's losing his base.
75% approval amongst republicans is still crazy even if it's down from 81%
Some are not calling themselves Republicans anymore. 32% approval is about 4% of his base that's gone away. Most elections are decided by about 2-4%
Fingers crossed
No, his base is largely intact, he’s losing independents that couldn’t bring themselves to wear the band’s merch to the show, and his base are slinking back into the shadows until there’s an official call from Trump for violence again. The problem is they’re so disenchanted and gas is so expensive that there will be no repeat of Jan 6th, so it’s effectively over as far as coups go. All they have left are grand displays of terror, the thrashings of a failing ideology. They aren’t leaving the base, though. There will always be this 30-35 percent that’s irredeemable bigots.
