Trump Dominates GOP Primaries Despite Low Approval
Despite President Trump’s declining overall approval ratings, his ability to oust Republican rivals and influence Congress stems from a paradoxical political dichotomy. While a significant portion of the electorate, including many who elected him, now disapprove of his job performance, the unwavering loyalty of his core base remains a formidable source of strength. This steadfast support allows him to exert considerable control over GOP primaries and maintain discipline within the party, even as his broader appeal wanes.
