As there are fewer and fewer self-described Trump supporters, they now start telling us what "strong supporters" of Trump think.

The press endlessly talks to them and asks them what they think, ignoring everyone else in the country.

About 2:55 on the timeline.

"Let me tell you," he continued. "If Jesus Christ gets down off the cross and told me Trump is with Russia, I would tell him, hold on a second, I need to check with the president if it is true. That is how confident I feel in the president."
