Is Trump Slowly Losing His Base And This Is Going Unreported By MSM?.....

I had occasion to be with a lot of people over the last week - many of whom were supporters of Trump in 2016. It was interesting to hear how many of them now question why they voted for Trump and saying they were regretting their vote.

Now I'm wondering if I just happened upon a unique group of people or if anybody here on DU has run into the same with other former Trump voters?

Is this happening around the country? And if it is - why isn't the MSM reporting Trump losing his base?

Well Trump - If You Didn't Collude & You're Innocent Then.....

Ok - We Tried It The NRA Way Now & Still Have These Mass Shootings....

now we need to try it another way with common sense gun laws & new age restrictions.

Doing the same thing like the NRA espouses and expecting a different result is just not working and is stupid.

The Students At Parkland & This School Need To Call Out Trump....

as being a phoney and not meaning what he says about stopping these school shootings.

He'll let the NRA dictate his actions again. Nothing will change.

Was There A Post Here The Other Day About Trump's Modeling Agencies....

also serving as an Escort Service? Was I dreaming or is this true? And if it is true - why aren't we hearing more about this. If I recall - such a business gave Trump 'kompromat' on some very important people.

Do All D.C. Politicians Have Their Own Michael Cohen.....

running interference for them? Fixers? Deal makers?

And do they do this with their knowledge or do they let these interference runners function autonomously so to give them ' plausible deniability'?

Have Other Companies Besides AT&T, Novartis & KAI Sought Influence Of Trump?.....

Seriously folks - what came first? Did Trump and Cohen conspire to target companies that might be in need of favorable legislation or decisions and then go out and contact them with 'pay for play' deals that would be advantageous to them? Hmmmm - did it go something like this: Trump to Cohen: AT&T could pay big bucks if we're able to swing things in their direction. So Mike - go to them and offer them my influence on upcoming legislation.

Or - did these companies somehow know that their was this guy - M. Cohen - that is close to Trump and they sought him out and approached him and said they would pay big bucks if he was able to get them close to Trump to help them out.

Again - did Trump/Cohen - market their influence to companies or did companies come to them? How did this all go down at the start - before these companies paid big buck retainers to Cohen?

Are there other companies out there that were approached by Cohen/Trump or approached Cohen?

I think this is and important fact to determine. What went on behind the scenes in these deals? Do you think Mueller has gotten to the bottom of this?

Will we be hearing about other companies that did the same?

How Did These Firms (AT&T, Novartis, KAI) Know To Contact Cohen?.....

Did he advertise his services? Did he go to the firms and say he can give them access to the Trump WH? These firms had to know that Cohen was close to Trump and that is what caused them to pay up to get to Trump.

Wasn't One Of Trump's Criticisms Of The Iran Deal The Money That Passed Hands....

from the U.S. to Iran. I know that it was their money in the first place - but Trump wants everyone to believe that Obama paid to get the agreement signed.

So now if Trump kills the Iran agreement - what does he have to say about all that money. Essentially - in his world of his little mind - that money will have been passed on to the Iranians for naught. It would be lost in the shuffle of his rescinding this agreement.

How does he account for that?
