  • Democrats have been working to fight against Trump's popularity with fact-checking and media blitzes, however, strategist James Carville suggested people should just allow the leader to "punch himself out.

In a recent episode of "Real Time with Bill Maher," host Bill Maher discussed the unexpected surge in Donald Trump's popularity, attributing it to Democrats' actions which he believes have inadvertently made Trump appear "cool." Maher pointed out that Trump's legal troubles, including his mugshot and multiple indictments, have not diminished his appeal but rather have enhanced his image among supporters, portraying him as a victim of political persecution. Maher criticized Democrats for focusing on what he considers trivial issues like Trump's tax returns, which he argues did not significantly impact public opinion. Instead, Maher suggested that Democrats should concentrate on more substantial issues like economic policies and foreign affairs to effectively challenge Trump's influence. He also noted that Trump's ability to remain in the spotlight and his supporters' unwavering loyalty have contributed to his enduring popularity.
