Why they love him and why we don't
by digby
The Gallup Poll looked at the reasons so many people disapprove of Trump:
Somebody tried to warn the American people about that rotten character. I think she may have thought they would reject someone who has so little of it and is blatantly unqualified, indecent and stupid. Millions did. But millions thought his lack of character was terrific. He really stuck it to the people they hate. And a few more people in a few states voted for him and he won the electoral college.
I would guess that the 4% of people Gallup polled who said they liked Trump because he wasn't Obama were probably the ones who made the difference.
Oh, and I guess the people who think he's doing the best he can under difficult circumstances haven't been in formed that their party has a majority in both houses and the Supreme Court. That's not usually a difficult circumstance. In fact, his "difficult circumstances" are all self-inflicted. But they love him anyway.
