But Trump is not winning the war when it comes to whether people trust him over the mainstream media. According to the most recent Quinnipiac poll, the percentage of Americans who trust Trump over the mainstream media has dropped four percentage points since the last time the poll was done at the beginning of the summer. Only 30 percent of people trust the president over the mainstream media, the lowest number over the past 10 months....

Even a number of groups that Trump won trust him less than they do the mainstream media.

— More than half (54 percent) of independents — a group Trump won in 2016 that has since soured on him — trust the media more than they do the president. Twenty-seven percent of independents trust Trump over the mainstream media.

— Half of men (51 percent) trust the media over Trump. Only about a third (32 percent) of men trust the commander in chief over the media.

— Nearly half (49 percent) of white people trust the media over Trump. Thirty-eight percent trust the president more.

But no one distrusts the president more than black people. Eight percent of black people trust Trump more than the media.

1. Wait until he proclaims the cleanup from Florence is a) finished and b) the most successful ever...

Which will be some time next week. That will drop him a couple more points. It's harder to hide, or the media to ignore, his administration's incompetence and callous indifference on the mainland, in largely white neighborhoods.

by FEMA and his good friend Trump.

2. What Is It Among Faux Viewers?

I am willing to bet that for those who watch Faux exclusively, it's perhaps different. Though that is an interesting question, since Faux is essentially a media outlet that normally spews Drumpf's talking points.
