Trump is currently governing for the pollsters and not his base. He’s keeping his approval rating above 40% while relying on his very loyal base to stay the course. Once the Mueller report is done, and the fallout managed, he will tack back to his base. Right now it’s about being uncontroversial enough to make the Democrats shy away from impeachment. Dangerous to rely on the base’s loyalty so much, but it looks like it’s working. If he can pick up some lasting support from the middle in the meantime, then great.

“Trump is currently governing for the pollsters and not his base”
Reinforcing his support of the 2nd Amendment at CPAC, and vetoing the resolution against his NE, is ignoring his base?
He’s doing exactly what we sent him there to do.

Once the ever-trumpers figure out the blatant betrayal on immigration, he’ll lose 20% of his base. Then a rat will get elected and America is finished.

That’s because the base understands what he’s doing and why he’s doing it. We want him to do what he has to to pick up new supporters.
