Just because we can’t change people’s minds doesn’t mean their minds don’t change. Trump’s approval just keeps going down. Authoritarian followers will leave a strongman who doesn’t seem strong. People who voted in desperation for a candidate promising any kind of change will become angry when they see no change coming. People who think that wealth is proof of merit believe that in the abstract only and are willing to make exceptions for individuals when they really get to know them.
Every reason to vote for Trump can be worn away at, but it might take time. The 17% of people who said they liked the healthcare bill just because Trump told them too are probably unreachable, but that’s a long way down from the 37% who still support Trump.
