The rest of the world basically hates him.
I wonder how his crowds are really holding up. We need to get the news orgs to pan his crowds. I'm not really buying that he's getting that much cred, even from his base. Even some of them must be getting tired of his shit.
And, yeah, I guess we are paying for it. At the very least, we're paying for the mileage on AF1 and his SS details.
