The popularity of Trump's rallies has been on a constant decline

Are a lot of Trump supporters getting sick and tired of Trump?

No.

Wishful thinking I'd say. Trump's popularity is doing fine with his supporters.

Yeah, you're probably right, but his rallies aren't nearly as great as they used to be. Even Kyle Kulinski thinks that that's really not a good sign for him for the general election:

...from Kyle's populist, progressive POV.

Remember that a guy like Kyle tends to believe that the general populace wants progressivism, but they are just oppressed by the elites and various forms of corruption. Thus, appealing to populist / progressive rhetoric is the key to winning over voters in Kyle's mind.

And of course he's not completely wrong. That kind rhetoric can indeed be popular, and you could argue Trump has lost some touch with that. But I would be careful of looking at everything through that POV.

Yeah, but he and other progressive populists like Cenk knew that Trump would likely win the presidency in 2016, not just because he effectively presented himself as populist, whereas Hillary Clinton came off as too much of an establishment Democrat. It was also because they believed that Trump had more charisma and more appeal than Hillary did back then. They also predicted that Biden would win in 2020 because they knew that Trump failed as a president by 2020 and saw that his candidacy then wasn't a great as it was in 2016.

Also, I think that progressives like know that most people are low-information voters who tend to vote based on emotions and party affiliation. In fact, I made about that a while ago:

That's why progressives like them wanted Biden to drop out of the race because they thought that was too weak of a candidate for this election despite the fact that they know that Biden overall such a very successful president and has arguably been most progressive president since the 1960s.
