28% of Americans thing he's been good for the economy. 31% of Americans voted for him... There's some shift and 'buyers remorse', sure. But not as much as numbers alone imply.

I think most of the people who've been deceived by the rhetoric are too committed. They'd rather convince themselves that their economic pain will serve some greater good, even if they can't see what that is yet.
