I believe that President Trump can do the impossible, as long as we're talking about finding new and amazing ways to disappoint and disgust everyone.

He can try dammit
This seems more in reaction to the healthcare debacle rather than the previous issues.
Personally I think it's worth looking at just for the dramatic shifts in opinions on Russia, collusion, impeachment etc. Along with significant erosion of GOP support. The OP has a clear comparison
Yeah it's hard to parse direct causality here because of the monumental amount of nonsense and fail his administration exudes

I wonder the effect all of his golfing and vacations is having as well.
Dude doesn't appear to be doing any work, which must sting his blue collar supporters.

The Trump base is far bigger & stronger than ever before (despite some phony Fake News polling). Look at rallies in Penn, Iowa, Ohio.......
..and West Virginia. The fact is the Fake News Russian collusion story, record Stock Market, border security, military strength, jobs.....
.. Supreme Court pick, economic enthusiasm, deregulation & so much more have driven the Trump base even closer together. Will never change!

Death by a thousand cuts. I have to imagine all of these things are taking a toll on trump. Whether it be healthcare, the lies, Russia, comey, vacations, tweeting etc
let's see, what's more accurate, polling hundreds of random americans, or judging the level of applause at your own rally full of your own supporters.
That's like saying Consumer Reports magazine is completely wrong cause my 2004 Ford Taurus works perfectly fine.
Seriously. What a nightmare we are stuck in.
Wasn't it Trump-leaning last year?
Had Trump with a 2-point lead on Election Day in their tracker.

The current numbers are already more than enough to make Republicans consider some distance important. Lower than 30% is absolutely impeachment territory for a president under special counsel investigation (among many other things that would have gotten Bill Clinton fully impeached).

No shit, I was legit shocked and baffled the other day when I realized that the Comey firing happened back in May. Feels like that shit was at least a year ago.

"There's a 9, and there's a 2, folks. It doesn't matter what order they're in! It doesn't matter! Oh boy, a 9 and a 2. That's got to be the highest numbers ever! Of all the numbers that this number is, it's got to be one of the highest, believe me."
Pence was head of the transition team. He knew flynn was compromised but pushed him for NSA
I don't believe anything these polls are saying after the election, tbh.
Sounds like he's readying them for war. I think he knows he's going down. So why is the RNC hitching themselves to him by making that Trump sycophant Kayleigh whatsherface?
He's going to resign by Xmas (yeah, Xmas) and do a victory lap about how he had the most successful and productive year as president that anybody has ever had and that he has accomplished more in one year than most presidents do in 8 and therefore he can best continue to MAGA by going back to the private sector to focus full time on his business.

That will be a glorious day.

So if it looks like pence is going down, what the likely hood of trump dumping him and putting someone even more disgusting in place. Just as a last fuck you.
Can the President change vps in the middle of a term?

God imagine if Mueller doesn't find anything, Trump might immediately declare a national holiday in his name from all the celebrating he'd be doing.

Fakenews they were wrong about elections. Look at all the public in rallies. Look at the market. Support is through the roof.

He would flatly lie about public policy statements by Trump and others. The VP debate was particularly memorable:
Kaine: "Trump said '[...]'!"
Pence: "No he didn't"
Kaine: "YES HE FUCKING DID, IT'S ON VIDEO"
Pence: "I believe you're mistaken"
He's kept it up since. He seems to live in an alternate reality bubble where things that provably happened actually didn't, because he refuses to acknowledge them. At least Trump's got potential mental illness (and possibly cocaine) to blame. Pence knows what he's doing.
Mueller's already built a team for prosecution. Let alone investigation.

Tremendous really. Obama lied about his approval rating.
Yea the ship sailed when they brought on RoboLawyer (can't remember his name) as their like, 16th attorney.
He's at 36% IIRC.

But his disapprovals are much lower than Trump's. It's not apples to oranges.

Disappointing that it is not zero.
The best thing is to take back the house/senate in 2018 and impeach him so that pence has no power but I am afraid some Dems like Pence so it might be best to take house/senate in 2018, keep trump in office till his last year then impeach him.
