54. There is some truth in the OP, but Trump could have collapsed on stage in his European speech and be carried away

on a stretcher and all Fox News and r/w radio would report is what a success he was and how he owned the stage and got everything he wanted. So yes, some support is being lost, but he is so bad in every way that his numbers should average 20 percent, not 40 percent. These numbers will be hard to bring down far, IMO. To make Trump irrelevant, our side needs to be creative or put out a massive ad spend to reach more voters with messages that will make the other side question their existing perceptions.
