If the president had fair media coverage, his poll numbers would be through the roof, and we would have more MAGA elected official in the House and Senate.
But of course, the so-called media is just a branch of the RAT party.
It's entire possible for a voter to "disapprove" of Trump yet vote for him anyhow. Especially if the alternative is a socialist gun-grabbing, open border supporting tax-and-spender.
For example, I could see somebody saying "You know, I really detest the arrogant SOB but dammit, if the best those Dems have is Bernie Sanders and that Elizabeth Warren, I reckon I'm going to have to vote for the guy anyhow..."
There's a lot of that out there. I know in my workplace, co-workers will criticize Trump in the lunchroom for this and that but privately, they tell me they are voting for him. They just don't want the others in the lunchroom knowing that.
Article states that Trump's approval ratings (44%) are ten points higher than it was in 2016 - when Trump won!
Again, I'm not big on approval ratings. What matters is what these people do when they go into the voting booth. Doesn't look like the Democrats are gong to have anybody special.
