Trump is losing his conspiracy base. Atlas doesn’t want to talk about it, but he is not as influential as he was a year ago.
I know many are going to say “that’s such a small minority” but it’s not. It’s a larger chunk of his supporters than anyone wants to admit. Now that he is losing ground with them…he may be f**ked.
Most of them still worship the ground that he walks on. It is true that some of them are turning against him due to his support for the vaccines, but my impression is that it is a fairly small minority and they'll probably back him again once he stops talking about vaccines and gets back to his usual nonsense.
BTW, I totally agree with you that the "conspiracy base" is very large indeed. To me, it is the single biggest explanation for Trumps increase in votes from 2016 to 2020 and his current lead in H2H polls against Biden.
