Republicans support Trump in very similar amounts as past nominees. How [View all]

can that be when he has shown himself to be a person that would try to falsely overturn the election, bribe a foreign country for help against his opponent, call a state official and ask him to find votes, make up false stories about what Ashley was doing when shot, disregard national security documents security, treat people like dirt, state plans for revenge, turn his back on an ally, etc.

Not only that, but then you have the record number of those he has appointed in the past saying how bad he is. You have folks like the McCains and the Romneys and the Cheneys and other republicans saying that he should not be supported.(or close to saying that, or at least those that supported them in the past being offended)

How can this not be cutting into the amount of republicans that support him.

At one point, I believe, Lincoln Project co-founders Steve Schmitt said there would likely be a split of the GOP party, due to those that can not tolerate a guy like Trump and those that love a guy like that.

Evidently, there is not even a hint of such a splitting.



Here is some support of his support levels.
