Is he losing some support? Sure. Can he and will he run again in 2028? No / probably not.

It is frustrating that we don’t have robust competing national media with professional exit polling that validates the elections, instead of dubious ‘adjusted’ polls limited to 11 states that focuses on dividing up everyone by race and gender, and providing some narrative around how this group or that group ‘fell that way’ — as if we were consumers buying a brand, instead of the purported owners of a democracy.
