I think Trump might have the biggest ego EVER and he says some of the dumbest and hyperbolic statements EVER, but I think he has the correct general idea, and that is what most of the people who ignore the rhetoric see too.


Exactly. One more point - the more the liberal MSM rants about everything under the sun concerning Trump (2 scoops of ice cream) - the more p!ssed the silent masses you speak of turn on the liberal loons and in effect say "Eff you, watch me vote for him again or better yet, watch me vote for him this time!!"

But there is also a huge part of this that he got it by I’ll fated means. A lot of the people here were never Trumpers. He did the exact same thing with the RNC that he did in the general. The Russian bots the whole nine. Probably perfected it in the primaries. Now I’m just wondering what happens with Russia. Does Putin invade Ukraine? What does Putin get now that he ran the most successful intelligence coups ever.

There’s always will be a part of me that doesn’t think he should get anything because he got the office by I’ll begotten means.

What part of selling arms to the Ukranians and bombing Putin's allies in Syria do you not understand?

At one point Trump was only getting about 2/3 of the Republican voters. He ended up with 92%. It wasn't what he did. It was what the Democrats did and their controlled media that pushed people to Trump. This Russia business is just the Democrats inability to comprehend that a lot of people don't like their policies and the way they do things. Democrats and Republicans are both minorities.

Any other year, any other slate of candidates, Trump doesn't win.

The point being missed with "Trump approval ratings" stories is that to get his vote total people who did not approve of him voted for him.

Americans are sick of business as usual.

Americans are sick of business as usual. I could just repeat that a bunch of times.

The public didn't approve of the Cruz shut down because the bare reality is that while Americans don't like the ACA, they have enough sense to know that it is a mess that is an improvement over the mess that was in place before it.

Cruz and his people didn't understand that. They confused public dissatisfaction with the public wanting to return to the status quo ante.

The polls show that Americans are sympathetic to many of the DACA eligible residents. Democrats have confused that sympathy to mean that Americans deem it a high priority.

If I were shopping for a house, I'd like to have a whole house emergency natural gas generator would I reject a house that otherwise suits over that? No. Would I pick a house that lacks other more important things because it has it? No.

Trump isn't what the public wants, but Trump is closer to what they want than the options they were given. A tone deaf idealogically driven candidate who has built a reputation playing the insider game like Cruz wasn't who they wanted. A long-time insider like Hillary wasn't who they wanted, hell Democrats rejected her for that in 2008 and even a non-Democrat like Bernie who is fringe pushed her to the end.

Trump just beat more of the same.

Final outcome in popular vote was 48.2 to 46.1
UPI's poll had it 49-46 in the final poll
538 had it 48.5 to 44.9
ABC 49-46
Fox 48-44
NBC 48-43

They didn't do worth a damn figuring out just where the margins were state-by-state but they sure hit it on the popular vote, so there is nothing there that makes the cartoon analogy at all apt.

their polling numbers are the equivalent of +/- 2 lbs guessing weight at the carny.....

RE: I wasn't for Trump, but am now
The point was and is that the "Exit Polls" and other "Scientific Polls" are only as good as the data that goes into them - Garbage in / Garbage out.... Unless you ask EVERYONE you may as well ask NO ONE - plus you have to trust that you are getting an honest answer.

The "polls" leading into the presidential election right up to election day showed Hillary wiping the floor with Trump.


You idiots on the left are now playing right into Trump and the Republicans hands and you don't even realize it.

- You all sound like sore losers: NOT an endearing quality to anyone who is not a sore loser already
- Your entire platform for 2020 consists of discrediting Trump rather than actually addressing real live issues and plans to deal with them.
- You keep presenting the same lists of retreads to run against him: These are the same people who represent EVERYTHING that the people who voted against Hillary represents

Your best offense should be to ignore Trump and start actually trying to make some changes of your own - but keep doing what your are doing. I will sit back, and watch my 401K retirement plan keep ballooning, and walk down the road without as many pan handlers looking for money because they have a job now!


Bitching about Trump is not actually doing something about Trump - DON'T YOU GET THAT?

Depends on how you define it.

232-306 is a pretty big blowout, especially given only one poll had HIM with more than 232.

YES, he won some key states 'close' and that is probably your point, but the primary reason the total vote was so close was that she killed him in a few states.

Had Bernie gone third party, it would have been a blow-out for Trump, even more so (ironically) than when Clinton won (with Perot 3rd party).

so the key may not be Trump, but the DNC. Will they support Bernie (assuming he runs again at his age) or someone like him, or will they continue to go with their formula? If they go 'formula', will the young voters stay home again?

I don't think the DNC yet has a handle on the repercussions of their collusion against Bernie and how that will play with idealist liberals (and there are lots of those in the party). Those people hate Trump to be certain, but they don't like the underhandedness of politicians in general.

I understand them. I understand them enough to know that if you desire a specific outcome to the polling there are ways to manipulate the process to get it.

There is a huge difference between you scratching your ass and guessing how many people in the US favor increasing tariffs on China vs actual polling.

dafuq.....where did tariffs on China come from???

all I was stating is it's pretty simple to guess the popular percentage within a margin of error almost every time....

hell, even you admitted the sampling vs. region(s) was ignored....

I have no clue what you're talking about....

your posit from above....

Wow

Seriously you can't grasp the concept of polling to determine public opinion.

I honestly don't understand what he didn't understand about it.......wtfe.....

one can only attempt to point out the obvious....

You can't grasp that Trump won the election when every public opinion poll on the planet leading up to November 4th said it would be otherwise.....
