Trumps approval rating tanks, as his base falls apartNewsweek/Raw Story Chris Riotta 07 NOV 2017 AT 12:35 ET
President Donald Trumps base appeared to be anything but intact this week, as his approval ratings continued their decline to lows that no other president in modern American history has suffered during a first year in office.
Support among the noncollege-educated white voters who made up a big portion of the Trump base throughout the 2016 election dropped 13 percent in a CNN poll published Monday afternoon, to 49 percent from 59 percent approval at the 100-day mark.
In the poll conducted Thursday through Sunday, the commander in chiefs overall approval rating among voters also reached a new low for a CNN survey since Inauguration Day, dipping to 36 percent from 37 percent, as independents and minorities also continued to abandon Trump.

It takes a while for some people to come to that conclusion.

The reporter visited tRump supporters in western PA & NE Ohio who all still stand with their bloated sack of protoplasm, blaming congress or the media for his troubles. I call BS on NPR for their effort to give him cover.
