Exactly, I was reading an article that discussed Trump with GOP strategists and pollsters and the J6 hearings definitely appear to be having an impact on Trump supporters. One said they had multiple focus groups recently where no one wanted Trump to run again and others where he had very little support when put up against other GOP options.
Fox does polls as well as anyone so I'm sure their internal polling is telling them the same. They want a GOP President and they probably see stronger, less polarizing (even if slightly) candidates out there they can push. First, they have to start walking people off the Trump train though.
