According to most media accounts, Donald Trump’s presidency has been something between a four-alarm dumpster fire and a constitutional train wreck. Ever since Inauguration Day, media outlets on the left have sought to confirm that narrative and create the impression that those who voted for him on Nov. 8 are beginning to turn on him or are at least having second thoughts even before his nascent presidency reaches its 100th day.
As the headline from a recent New York Times piece put it, “Trump voters in a swing district wonder when the ‘winning’ will start.” The Times reporter was able to find a couple of voters in Bensalem, Pa., impatient for Trump to overhaul health care and fix the Department of Veterans Affairs. But for the most part the Trump voters quoted in the piece remain broadly supportive of the president.
