Trump at 50%?

To conclude what a poll 'suggests' or 'demonstrates' could be fake news in itself.....that is just someone's opinion.....

... but you love em' when they say what you want to hear.

Trump's approval rating is not 50% .. thus, fake news.

No, I actually don't love 'em or hate 'em.....I just mostly ignore them for the most part ....

especially now that country is so divided...if you read all my posts in this thread you'd know that.
 
Something doesn't add up.

You can't hit a mainstream media outlet without hearing how the Trump administration is in disarray; the daily du jour Russian connection and impending impeachment; and in some cases of severe derangement, invoking the 25th amendment to declare Trump mentally unfit for office.

I think it's safe to claim that Trump has been subjected to a historic barrage of negative press for a new president. Yet, his numbers are climbing according to NBC/Politico [I avoided Rasmussen on purpose].

Maybe it's because consumer confidence is at a 15 year high---and it spiked after Trump got elected.

Or maybe the media's 24/7 Trump-bash fest is to no avail or even back-firing. I've warned them of the latter lol.

Thoughts?

ROTFLMAO at your desperation for an excuse.
 
Looks like you're right on that: http://www.politico.com/f/?id=0000015a-819f-d2c6-a7db-d9bfcf110001

2000 respondents, 37% Conservative, 31% Liberal, 23% moderate, the other 9% didn't declare

That demography matches the registered voter numbers...with the exception of the 23% that should include the 9% undeclared as independent. Add them....and its 100%. In fact....giving the liberals 31% is quite LIBERAL with the actual numbers of recent history that has liberals at 24% not 31%.... any poll that includes more than 27% liberals + or - the 3% margin for error....will always be skewed to the left side.

The false dichotomy is the way all polls are skewed by the media propaganda suggesting that LIBERALISM is the mainstream of American Culture and Morality when it fact liberalism is at its lowest point in decades as realized in the majority of STATES and the election results. They get away with this type of Nazi propaganda because they have the biggest mega-horn to announce the propaganda. Liberals control the media in both the news and entertainment sectors....not to mention the way the left has usurped the power of education away from the states that actually have a 180 degree difference in societal and political ideologies. That's the very reason there was the grinding and gnashing of teeth from the liberal left with the appointment of an Educational conservative that will do everything within her power to give the state and local boards back the power that was stolen by the feds. As Hitler's minions declared, "Give me the power to educate your youth and I will own the nation within a 2 or 3 generations." --

Why did you?

You claim that you don't care about polls .. yet here you are.

I did because I do have 'thoughts' on polls and pollsters.....so here I am telling them to all.....

How else would you know I really give a rats ass about them if I didn't tell you....and explain why....
in a direct response to one of Thingys posts.....

I can read as well, if not better, than you do.

I'm thinking, if you really don't give a rats ass about polls, what's the point?

Of course I don't really care how you feel about polls .. just wondering why you question why someone else would post in a thread about polls .. that you don't care about.
 
well you know.. the usual suspects in the press can only nag on Trump .
The talking heads chatter and chatter over nothingness
But it's really not about anything except outcomes - and it's way too early.

Can't overemphasize how disappointed I am in you and this strange Trump crush you hid so well, until he won. Read what Frum thinks of the clown in chief.

Nobody with US interests at heart can support this idiot. Trump could have accomplished a lot already, but he has done zero because his goal is to be liked, attack personal enemies and self aggrandize in the most nearsighted and churlish manner.

He is a clown.

Sorry about that, bro....I wasn't posting for your benefit....it was a discussion with thingy...that IS the point.....

the answer to your question is in my posts....maybe reading them again would help you out....

I don't have to care about polls to give my opinion on them.....and if you wanna post in a thread about polls, you ought to at least mention them, rather than
a snarky personal attack on someone else as I thought Jarod did.....

Don't get all twisted my friend. I'm just messing with you. :0) That's what friends do, right?
 
A) I thoroughly enjoy how sensitive you are about Hillary winning the popular vote. Rest assured, it is a reminder I will keep posting.
B) The PUNDITS called it a slam dunk for Hillary; not the polls. Like I said - the polls were actually pretty accurate.

A.....You can post all day Hillary's popular vote, have a ball....nothing will change, Trump beat her ass and he IS the president....and no matter how you shake it....her entire lead in votes over Trump can be explained by the results of ONE state....you know and I know it....the difference is, I except undeniable facts, you don't.

B....you must have been watching a different election thingy....you say it was the pundits....what the fuck do you think they were basing their predictions on...a crystal ball?
It was the polls, lad....thats where they got there inaccurate information in order to make such an erroneous prediction....


Hillary Clinton has a 70 percent chance of winning the election, according to both the FiveThirtyEight polls-only and polls-plus models. That’s up from a 65 percent chance on Sunday night, so Clinton has had a good run in the polls in the final days of the campaign. Clinton’s projected margin of victory in the popular vote has increased to 3.5 percent from 2.9 percent.
https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/election-update-clinton-gains-and-the-polls-magically-converge/

The results of Tuesday’s presidential election came as a surprise to nearly everyone who had been following the national and state election polling, which consistently projected Hillary Clinton as defeating Donald Trump. Relying largely on opinion polls, election forecasters put Clinton’s chance of winning at anywhere from 70% to as high as 99%, and pegged her as the heavy favorite to win a number of states such as Pennsylvania and Wisconsin that in the end were taken by Trump.

How could the polls have been so wrong about the state of the election?

I don't make up the facts....or cling to feeble spin like you do.....

You just posted people's INTERPRETATION of the polls. Not the polls themselves.

Thanks for agreeing w/ me.
 
Truth is he is probably higher. Just like the Clinton vs Trump polling, his approval is likely lower for the same reason. Me approve of Trump? Of course not! He's racist! (Inside head; yeah I kinda agree with a lot).

Also, the same people conducting these polls, other than rasmussen, are also liberal biased just like the media. They work together to turn off and deter voters.

They oversample democrats to a large margin to paint dim or rossy pictures.

forget what you said already.....

you said, "The PUNDITS called it a slam dunk for Hillary; not the polls. Like I said - the polls were actually pretty accurate. "

Still making that claim?
....I proved it certainly was the polls and they were totally wrong....therefore the pundits were wrong.

there was no 'interpretation' involved at all....
