Donald Trump's support in Minnesota is plummeting [View all]
After losing Minnesota by a slender 1.5 percent in 2016, President Donald Trump has bragged loud and hard that he'll carry our fair state next year. Unfortunately for him, the more Minnesotans get to know him, the more they dislike him.
That's the finding of Morning Consult, which does monthly surveys of presidential approval rates across the country. Since his inauguration, polling now shows that Trump's standing in Minnesota has plunged by 18 percent. If an election were held today, he'd lose in a landslide.
The poll doesn't go into why people feel this way, so one can only speculate why his fandom among independents and moderate Republicans is diving.
