The facts show that Trump’s support is beginning to erode in multiple meaningful ways. The ground is literally giving way beneath his feet, even if he and a goodly chunk of the punditerati don’t know it yet.

What is more, it is a phenomenon that is only likely to accelerate.

To those who say Trump’s base is being energized by his arrest for endangering U.S. national security, you wouldn’t know it from the sparse MAGA crowd assembled outside the Miami courthouse where Trump was arraigned on Tuesday. Despite manifold efforts by the Trump messaging operation to gin up a Jan. 6-type crowd of flag-waving loonies, the actual turnout was unimpressive. There were almost certainly more media and police in the crowd of a couple hundred than there were pro-Trump protestors.

This is not the first time Trump’s power to draw a crowd has failed him. He got a similarly anemic turnout at the time of his arraignment in New York for the charges brought by New York City district attorney Alvin Bragg against the former president in the Stormy Daniels hush money case. Trump rallies have also produced disappointing results over the course of the past year or two. Of course, to hear Team Trump tell it, it’s all part of the plan, a desire for “more intimate” interactions with voters. Hooey.

After a couple of years, the plummeting turnouts have to be seen as a trend. The sad sack old coyote is losing it.

Disagree with this over simplification. He's not losing even a fraction of support. What happened is the feds have put the squeeze on the militias, the proud boys, and the 4cac types. Enrique Tarrio is from Miami. You think he wouldn't be out there with a bunch of :flabbynsick: Cubans talking shyt and fake thugging?
The ones that went to the courthouse were the unemployed/retired volunteer militia type sympathizers. The lowest of the lowest low hanging fruit.
They're not afraid of losing their jobs for being on camera shouting Nazi slogans cuz they ain't got a job. That's who was out there.

:comeon:He hasn't had a campaign rally go plat since 2016. He was doing Akademics at the Roots picnic numbers his whole time in Iowa and NH. Ain't nobody trying to see him, Otis.

At some point they gotta stop pretending like Trump's mob cares about logic or reason. They will never "do the right thing" because that is no who they are. We are probably four months away from Trump outright accusing DeSantis of being a pedophile, attacking his wife, and doing all types of other Trump-like things that his mob enjoys. And guess what? It's probably gonna work because most people don't respect pushovers. I see no reason to believe DeSantis is gonna get on stage and properly spar with this man. The only way to do it is like Biden did in 2020, where he essentially treated Trump like a petulant child. Everyone else tries to out-fact him (Hillary), or appeal to the better nature of America (Jeb Bush), or try to respond to baseless attacks with incredulous anger (Cruz). I guarantee you DeSantis' people are telling him he needs to look presidential, avoid getting angry, try to compliment Trump, etc. He's gonna look like a fool.
