Support for U.S. President Donald Trump increased slightly among Republicans after he lashed out on Twitter over the weekend in a racially charged attack on four minority Democratic congresswomen, a Reuters/Ipsos public opinion poll shows.
The national survey, conducted on Monday and Tuesday after Trump told the lawmakers they should go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came, showed his net approval among members of his Republican Party rose by 5 percentage points to 72%, compared with a similar poll that ran last week.
Trump, who is seeking re-election next year, has lost support, however, with Democrats and independents since the Sunday tweetstorm.

a racially charged attack on four minority Democratic congresswomen
Wait, correct me if I’m wrong but race was never mentioned,
and since the democrats hold a majority in the house how
can they be considered a minority???
Anyway, they are Democrat, not democratic.
I think people are getting fed up with this crap.
They know if they can keep repeating it their ‘base’ will believe it. The dem base believes anything they tell them.
The Jihad Squat! Hide your clits!!!
Trump is highly fortunate in the enemies he chooses... They self-select, then go off on an attack, ad hominem or for his policies that conflict with their pet projects. Trump then counter-punches, almost always with telling and lasting aftereffect.

Excellent, alloysteel. And I would add, Trump’s timing for his attacks is also brilliant. He knows the physics of the political universe. He knows that leverage applied at the fulcrum of events will give him tremendous mechanical advantage.
Tonight, there’s a rally being held in Greenville, NC. And because of the ruckus he caused a few days ago, there’s great anticipation of what he will say there.
Racially charged attack???...can any of these idiots read or understand what they have read? Probably not with the last 60 years of the NEA running our public education system....
Those planning to attend this Rally definitely will go to great lengths to be there.
Waking early in the morning to get in line before sun up. The crowd should be huge; the enthusiasm even greater. Egads! 4am most folks have yet to lift their head from the pillow.
Independents too!
How many times on these forums have FReepers wished, begged, and pleaded elected the Stupid Party (R) would grow a spine and tell the communists exactly how the conservative base views the world?
Now that we have one....the Romney/Yeb faction is clutching their pearls.
