The January 6 Hearings Are Wounding Trump
July 20, 2022 at 7:00 am EDT By Taegan Goddard
“The conventional wisdom about the Jan. 6 committee hearings was that no single revelation was going to change Republican minds about Donald Trump,” Politico reports.
“What happened instead, a slow drip of negative coverage, may be just as damaging to the former president. Six weeks into the committee’s public hearing schedule, an emerging consensus is forming in Republican Party circles — including in Trump’s orbit — that a significant portion of the rank-and-file may be tiring of the non-stop series of revelations about Trump.”
“The fatigue is evident in public polling and in focus groups that suggest growing Republican openness to an alternative presidential nominee in 2024.”
