He got what, 45% and only 50% of people bothered to vote. So, 22.5% of people voted for him, and another 19.5% either didn't vote for him or didn't vote, and their still ok with "it"?

maybe the GOP will not impeach him as he's their compliant dummy, and they realize now that they'll get whatever they want.

The people who disapprove are the ones who have been following what he is doing, irritating world leaders, assembling a cabinet of incompetents, issuing EO's without proper vetting. The ones who approve are basing that on how their life is at that moment. From that perspective, not much has changed. They are still getting their checks, they still have ACA, their kids school hasn't changed. The jobs are coming back and the wall will be built. Life, for the moment, is good.

the ACA is repealed and we're back to the way things were with insurance companies calling all the shots and ERs becoming PCPs again; and all the people in the Rust Belt still don't have jobs...

I think that's our only hope. We need the pendulum to swing back...

They're the kind of people who are hurting, losing ground, and watching things get worse

But all they'll do with their rage and anger is work to take everyone else down with them
