And the 30% that you speak of that approved, is that 30% of Republicans or 30% of the population, or 30% of the voters?

It mostly didn't dispel my questions. But you bring up a good point about the 30% number. I was flying from memory, and honestly don't recall if it was 30% of the population or just Reps. I was thinking the whole population. Looking it up, I was correct. It's 30% of the population. As of this month, among only Reps, it's holding around 90%. Very solid.

Though, your link was interesting. It speaks to how incompetently he is handling things. But will that translate into votes? Probably not. Most of the Rep base wouldn't vote for a Dem if you held a gun to their children's heads. No matter how badly the Felon screws everything up.

The key has long been, and still is, the uncommitted voters. You'll never get part of that 90% Reps (though, that implies, that 10% aren't really committed). You have to capture those uncommitted segments. I'm pretty sure the incompetence is evident to them, so the Dems need to put up a non-idiot to win. Someone who realizes healthcare and the economy matter a lot more to those people than -for example- pronouns.
