That's a fair point, and I certainly don't pretend to know whether it's an effective tactic. That said, I'm not 100% convinced that the approval rating polls are necessarily meaningful; I thunk it's entirely possible that plenty of folks will say they don't approve of Trump when asked directly by a pollster, but then will still defend Republican actions in general, as well as Trump when compared to anyone else.
