Have you been following any news in the last few months? "Adore the POTUS"? I don't know that anyone still feels that way (although he does still have some support). I think even Laura is giving him the cold shoulder these days.
But demographics reports tend to differ from what you said about Country music listeners. They are NOT all republican, conservative. They definitely do not all adore the president. Just as hip-hop is not urban or black, country is not southern or red state or hick. I agree that country music stations tend to cater to that demo, but that is not where their listener base is.
