Don't get too excited. National polls don't tell us much. We need to look at how he did by state. And he's still holding up in the states where he won. Except Iowa. He's tanking there. Looking good for a Senate seat pick up.

He's worse in PA than in Iowa. Bad in MI, NV, TX, elsewhere.

If you think this in any reduces support of Trump and republicans you are crazy. These people are true believers. Republicans could arrest and kill their families and their support would not waver.
Classical Republicans have succeeded in one respect. I used to have nothing but sympathy for America’s white working poor. I supported policies designed to lift them up and help their families. The GOP has me thinking that maybe they were right about these poor folk all along. Maybe they do make bad decisions. Maybe it’s true that God only helps those that help themselves. Maybe they should rely on the charity of those that know them. Maybe the government should let them flounder until they are capable of doing better.
Feels gross to say it.

Even if, you're talking about a big chunk of voters that won't bother voting next time. They'll be in the "everybody makes my life worse" camp.
