Is Trump's base softening?

For all of President Trump’s recent polling woes, his reelection could always count on his historically strong base to show up on Election Day. But recent polling suggests a growing softness with those voters Trump depends on the most.

A new survey from the University of California, Berkeley’s Institute of Governmental Studies shows the president reaching new lows with voter approval in California. There was never a question that presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden would handily carry the largest state in the country on Election Day. Yet Trump’s numbers there indicate a phenomenon likely being replicated across the country: Some of his most reliable supporters are slowly drifting away.
