Even Fox News Viewers are Bailing on Trump

People who say Fox News is their most-trusted news network have been losing confidence in President Trump, according to new data from Suffolk University.

Trump’s favorability rating has dropped 32 points between June and December among respondents who said they trust Fox over any other news network. In June, the number was 90 percent, and in December, just 58 percent, according to the data first reported by The Washington Post.

From my European point of view, Trump is now established more than ever. However, in just about seven years America will get another president.

Perhaps they are finally waking up to the facts. The repubes are taking away their healthcare, screwing them on taxes, and will soon be destroying Social Security and Medicare. There will be a huge backlash when they finally realize that Fox “News” is nothing more than a propaganda organ for Trump and his right-wing nut jobs. When it starts to hit their wallets hard, payback time.

I hope "America" has fun with that. For my part I'm pretty much done with it and all it's political stupidity.

Trump was elected for the following reasons;

1). He's not Hillary.

2). Liberals dislike him and crazed right wingers will support whatever "offends" Liberals, even if it's self defeating, purely out of spite.

3). Too many working class Americans in Rust Belt states STILL have not realized that the "Free Trade" they blame for the loss of manufacturing jobs that includes NAFTA, TPP, even GATT are all part of the CONSERVATIVE belief in free, unrestricted trade and Lasse' Faire Capitalism. The Republican Party has been the driving force behind it for decades.

4). Morons will follow whoever struts around talking loud, being rude-n-crude, acting like a badass rooster, hugs a veteran, waives a flag in their face and/or quotes the Bible. Symbols are more important to a dumbass than substance. "Millions of veterans DIED for that song!".... No, they fought to protect the PEOPLE or because the government forced them to fight, idiot.

5). The hopelessly selfish and greedy eyeball that potential tax cut and don't give a damn what the impact of it is on fellow citizens. "Screw you Jack, I've got mine!".

6) Any one or a combination of the above.

Trump knows this and will continue exploit these people as long as he can.........

Trump was elected because we have a huge number of bigots in this country, whom the GOP and their surrogates in the right-wing media have successfully manipulated for years.

No way. My dad's Vega panel wagon blew away Pintos and their ilk.
