On MS NBC this morning...

They had a poll up where they showed that 98% of evangelicals support Trump regardless of what he does. Another poll of regular republicans supported Trump by 97% regardless of what he does. Not so sure I believe that one. It is scary to think that there are that many dumb ass people in this country. I think that if Trump is impeached in the house and acquitted in the senate, he will win election. That will be a disaster for this country.

1. Not true of independents so that underscores the question: How many R's are now I's?

2. that's an excellent point

is there any polling about {dem% ind% rep%} as a whole and how much rep identification has gone down and the others have gone up.

edited to add:

3. I don't think trump gets re-elected in a fair election.

But since he won’t pursue foreign intervention we can’t be sure of fair.

Remember, Walker interfered with ballots in WI long before the 2016 fraudulent election. Then the illegal gerrymandering.

4. This is so depressing.

I live in a very red state and see huge displays by MGATs along the side of the road every time I drive anywhere, not to mention Trump 2020 signs on houses, in yards, and on cars. Sometimes the deplorable bumper stickers are the only things holding the cars together. I swear, my blood pressure goes up every time I pass a truck with an American flag on one side of the bed and the traitor flag on the other, with a window sticker saying, "It's not hate, it's heritage. Learn your history."

These people are are HUGE church-goers. I was brought up in the church and have left it, largely because of this bullshit. My husband's relatives, who are holier-than-the-rest-of-us, tell him that it's about the abortion issue. They'd vote for Satan himself (and it seems that they may have already done that) if he promised to stack the courts to make sure abortion is outlawed. Nothing else matters to them. Not surprisingly, they're eerily silent about the abuses this country heaps onto already-born children in our own and other countries.

It just makes me want to cry.

I feel so bad for young people and those with young families.

5. Its desperation

They know that their entire worldview which is based on white privilege and misogyny is on the way out and they are willing to tie themselves to the most corrupt and ignorant narcissistic asshole because they think its the only way to cling to it for awhile longer...

Thanks Obama!

6. Many republicans are no longer self-identifying as Rs, but

as I's. I'd be willing to bet that a big chunk of the current GOP equals evangelicals.
