The last two weeks have been another a loud wake-up call for Democrats who have railed against President Donald Trump but who thought that this reality star commander-in-chief was so incompetent, corrupt and self-centered that it was only a matter of time before he went away.
In their view, the President who surrounded himself with third-rate advisers and who had no legislative skills to speak of would be hampered in how much damage that he could inflict before his term ended.
It's looking very different right now.
The minute that Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy announced he was retiring, every Democrat who has been paying attention to the Court realized the implications. With the evangelical right cheering him on, President Trump now has the opportunity to push through a giddy Republican Senate a judicial nominee who will dramatically swing the majority of the Supreme Court much further to the right.
Last week's Gallup polls and the results of Tuesday's Republican primaries in South Carolina and New York are also strong indications that his political support remains much more substantial than Democrats had expected.
In the months that followed the inauguration, the conventional wisdom had been that as his national approval ratings kept falling, his political support within the GOP would follow. But we can see from the recent polling that Republican support for the President remains rock-solid and seems to be getting stronger.
Despite all of his chaotic and controversial decisions, his national approval ratings in some polls have even crept upward to the range of 45%. With a low rate of unemployment and a booming stock market, there is reason to believe that those numbers might hold fairly steady.

The far left always, without fail, overplays its hand.
All the winning and success that Trump has been bringing to the country and they just are now realizing this? Sounds more like they have been in denial and the fog is starting to lift.
The most honest set of paragraphs ever written on CNN.com, I would estimate.
It may finally be dawning on the dense Democrat media that the Harvard poll showing 72% of Americans think the media puts out Fake News is absolutely correct. President Trump is doing well running against this fanatical group of haters.
Despite all of his chaotic and controversial decisions,
...
in the opinion of crazy liberals.
Last week’s Gallup polls and the results of Tuesday’s Republican primaries in South Carolina and New York are also strong indications that his political support remains much more substantial than Democrats had expected.
LOL!
Now we just have to not make their mistake and become complacent.
Yeah, they may have under-estimated him, but what they really did, with a complicit Congress I might add, was piss off the PEOPLE big time with their illegal, unqualified, ineligible tyrant messiah: Ovomit and all his filthy commie ilk.
The result: TRUMP and thank God for him. May he roll back everything the foreign POS foisted upon America. MAGA!!!
They allow themselves a small bout of honesty a couple times a year or so.
In his review of the three GOP Pres. the author left out one other thing the Dems believed about each when Reagan and the Bushes were Pres. He’s literally Hitler!!! See nothing has changed.
45% seems to be the number they like for Trump’s approval ratings. I think it is quite certain that he is now over 50%.
No! Smarter people are always right!
The problem on the Left is they truly believe in their superiority and infallibility. It is impossible for them to believe so many want nothing to do with their twisted ideology. They have also convinced their followers of the infallibility of the Party.
The result is Donald J Trump and they STILL to this day cannot accept the pure fact he beat what they believed was their best.
And not all who badly underestimated Trump were Democrats.
You’d think that they’d get a clue that the more they pile on, the more they practically force us to defend, even if we weren’t so inclined anyway.
Here’s why: Trump has become the long-overdue “disruptor” to the ossified Washington, DC political culture.
Yes but they can’t make a habit of it. Their democrat masters wouldn’t approve.
They knew they “underestimated” President Trump as the results started coming in on election night 2016. The majority of polls weren’t even closed before the Clintoon Clan was scheming with Obama’s “seventeen intelligence agencies” to come up with their “Russki collusion” fiasco.
