Trump's approval rating this week among GOPers has slid into the high 70s in the average poll. It's traditionally been in the high 80s to low 90s. Clear erosion among the base.

Morning Consult: 34% (-29% net)
Quinnipiac: 33% (-24%)

Civiqs: 40% (-17%)

Missed this from @alexburnsNYT @jmartNYT this week: "The gulf between Republican leaders and their grass-roots activists has never been wider since the start of the Trump era…the party is not feuding over any sort of grand policy agenda. It’s simply a personal loyalty test."
