And the more he pisses off "libruls" the more they like it. He could institute a new policy of shooting puppies in barrels and 60% of republicans would support it.

The majority of their base are fervently in favor of positions a majority are against. As they whip their base into a frenzy, the slightly more moderate members peel off, leaving behind an increasingly extreme, increasingly toxic core. I only hope that we as a nation can survive the implosion of the republican party.

27% support Tricky Dick until the end.
27% supported the Apartheid government.
27% still support the Iraq War.
27% believe that Obama is not a natural born citizen.
27% want to deport dreamers.

27% is clearly the base of the Fascist Republican Party.

Screw those 27% they are irredeemable... they are driven by hate and fear... the problem is the other 15% that are keeping his approval rating only slightly underwater because the economy is doing good.

the 22% plus as the hard core base of any Party. This 27 number will help any Dem in the Mid Terms as long as he or she messages it properly.

Trump and his Crime Syndicate may have stepped off the cliff on this one. Notice how Cable News is bringing on the Right Wing Paid Pundits today.

It looks like 27-28% is the bottom for Trump. His approval rating will never drop below that point. That is the official percentage of Americans that are full-time, 24/7 fascist and racist pieces of shit.

The hopeless, unpersuadable, rock-solid, stupid, mean hard core. Overall, though, those percentages give me hope.
