It's all they do, really. Billions of dollars are poured into creating a positive public opinion of Trump.

The effort is strong, but people are noticing that prices are up, not down. They notice that they lost their job. They notice that their local SS office closed. They notice that their VA doctor was laid off. One by one, people will take notice as Trump's fiascos affect them.
