After a solid week of anti-Trump media blitzkrieg Trump emerges with a 2-3 points ahead in popularity and higher than Obama during the same period of presidencies. But why?
Several years ago there was a cultural shift in the political divide. It changed from progressive/conservative to popular/anti-Washington. Trump is the embodied champion of this new political divide and because the population hates Washington and their media propagandists far more than they could ever hate Trump - It just doesn't matter what they say against him. In fact they just confirm their bias and poor standing with the public.
