I remain astonished that 1/3 still stand by this slimy grifter. Apparently he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and still not lose hardly any of that 34%.

There is something mentally wrong with most who still support this Creep. I am sure many are glued to Fox News which is 95 % pure propoganda. Righties say well you all have MSNBC but the difference is that if Obama had mocked a handicapped reporter or bragged about grabbing women's you know what it would not have been filtered out like Fox filters out stuff.

I kind of agree with what Bill Maher said last night, America as we have known it is over.

The start of this....a fragile Reagan agreeing to do away with the long standing Fairness Doctrine. Minus that no Fox News, no Rush, no One America News, etc.

...simply doesn't follow the news, have things going well enough in their own lives, and figure based on that very narrow view, "Guess the president's doing OK!"

I couldn't guess what portion, but I'm pretty sure that some sizeable chunk of that 34% isn't alt-right knuckle-draggers and hypocritical fundies, but just plain clueless and tuned out.
