2. That approval rating is mind boggling!

3. No matter how much they drop, I'm constantly surprised at how many people...

... approve of him. Didn't Bush have worse ratings?

6. At this point Bush actually had higher ratings

And even managed to crack 50% right around the time of the 2004 election, which is why he won. His ratings didn't really start to crater until his second term. And by the end of his second term, they were pretty much in the toilet.

4. Oooh, maybe he should do a photo op with TWO Bibles!

5. Now would be the time for the NBC tapes to be released

Almost 43% of people still approve of the job he's doing, that boggles the mind.

8. If there really was a "deep state"

working against him, now would be the time to leak his tax returns.

7. That 43% number

seems to have been stable for some time, unaffected by any of Trumps actions or lack of actions. Those are the hard core from which Trump draws all of his power, those are the ones Trump has been pandering to.

The real question is how many people who really don't approve of Trump's behavior will vote against Democrats anyway. Approval rate and votes do not necessarily equate.

As the president, Trump has a lot of power to be able to sell himself, he can not be counted out.

If you wan't to be really depressed, look at Trump's approval numbers at this time in 2016: https://www.politico.com/story/2016/06/donald-trump-unfavorable-polls-224454

9. That and the fact that virtually nothing has been done to protect against

election interference is really worrying.
