The more he campaigns for one of his pet issues, the more unpopular he becomes. Same thing happened in the run up to Obamacare.
Fortunately, the dumb fuck is too narcissistic to just STFU.
Unfortunately, most of those who dislike him in his own party are probably the idiots who think he's "Not doing ENOUGH" or "Not battling those goddamned ReTHUGlicans".
Most of us just hate him for doubling down on the stupid.
