1. How can drumpf's approval rating be up?

Are more people giving up and accepting and normalizing this cancer?!

3. Ive been asking myself that too. I think

He got a little bump from the possibility of meeting with NKorea.
Also, some people getting their “tax cuts”.
Some Repubs “coming home” to support their party.

That being said, news for him lately hasn’t been good.
Bimbo situation. Stormy lie detector and National Enquirer catch and kill.
Embracing Putin even more with the don’t congratulate him thing. McCain condemned.
Mueller threat to be fired. Several Repubs threaten impeachment.
McCabe vindictively fired one day before pension date.
Further White House Staff chaos.
Penn Dem district win.
Upcoming March 24 student rallies may also hurt him a little.

Will be interesting to see his approval numbers in April.
Shirley, he will be back in the 30’s. ???
