I agree with you, Senator Capito
“No one, no one, who has lost the trust of the American people should ever serve as our president.”
Here was West Virginia's Shelley Moore Capito speaking at the 2016 Republican National Convention:

I could not find a recent poll on the public's overall trust of the president but earlier today Axios released a poll on how much we trust the president on coronvirus information:

Additionally, according to fivethirtyeight, Trump's approval rating currently stands at 41.6%.
It probably won't happen in this state, but I'd like to see Capito's next interviewer ask the senator (with examples and follow-up questions) if she thinks Trump "can be trusted with classified information" or whether he "plays by the same rules as you and I."
