Once again the talking heads are blathering about the poll that shows 4 out of 5

Republicans approve of tRump's Helsinki summit performance. They never mention that with Independents, who are as big a block as either party, Trump is seriously underwater.

i wonder how long it would be before anyone noticed, since the media absolutely never seeks them out for ANYTHING.

They want the argument to continue and always do this when it seems like someone- especially liberals- are going to conclusively "win" an important question. I remember them pulling this stuff during the Chimpy years, around the Iraq war, all the time- deliberately ignoring knock-out stories, making inane points and memes to distract, etc.

disapproval is high. 20% of GOPers disapprove, add that to Indies and Dems and what do you have, majority disapproval of shithole. GOP congresscritters I believe know the numbers and it ain't in their favor. Especially in districts with fair amount of Indies and Dems.
