I will give it a try.
I agree with you that the conviction of Manafort and plea by Cohen are eye sores.
That being said, we have precedence that truly bad things can be overlooked or swept away with the Clintons. While the most vocal majority are the ones that hate trump, the true silent majority do and are getting to the point of being fed up with all the liberal stuff that is spewed.
While this is a black spot on Trump, I don't believe it is going to be but a bump in the road. In my opinion we have overlooked allow more egregious things to slide than this.
The central Texas area around Austin if very liberal and blue, I suspect areas outside of that may not be impressed but are like "Meh" big deal.
Just my thoughts as a Trump supporter.
Thanks for the response. Your statements are in essence saying that there will be little negative but no positive.
I don't disagree with you for the most part. The hardcore Trump supporters will always continue to vote for Trump. The hardcore Trump non-supporters will continue to vote against Trump.
It's those who are in neither of those 2 groups who will determine the elections in November and in 2020. Like you said, this is just another bump in the road but each of these negative bumps turns off a few more voters who will now vote blue. When Trump does something positive, the biggest positive being the tax reform package, his popularity rises. My guess is that in the coming week or so his popularity in the polls will take a hit. Between now and November will be very interesting.
