RNC internal poll finds GOP in danger due to complacent Trump voters: report
The Hill ^ | September 18, 2018

Posted on 09/18/2018 8:57:14 AM PDT by SMGFan

A leaked survey conducted for the Republican National Committee (RNC) found that a majority of President Trump’s supporters don’t believe that Democrats have a chance to win back the House during November’s midterm elections.

Bloomberg Business on Tuesday published the survey, completed by Public Opinion Strategies polling firm on Sept. 2.

The results are likely to augment GOP fears about Trump's base not showing up for the midterms, when the president himself will not be on the ballot but House and Senate majorities are in play.

ifty-seven percent of people who identified as strong Trump supporters said Democrats don’t have a chance to win big, while 37 percent believe they do, according to the poll.

The majority of respondents — 71 percent overall — said it was “extremely” or “somewhat likely” that Democrats would be victorious in November, compared to the 25 percent who did not agree.

RNC internal poll likely found that Trump supporters don’t like RINOs.

This is their public spin.

There’d better not be ONE person who is a registered Republican that fails to vote.

You wanted someone to save the country from Obama, and we got it.

Now get off your ass and vote so he can do it!

“Complacent trump voters”.

They must be living in “opposite world”.

The RNC is a criminal enterprise too. The entire country has declared ‘F You’ to the entire two party model and nobody knows what the new model is going to look like.

This is media driven horse dung to try to cover up for voter fraud.

” a majority of President Trump’s supporters don’t believe that Democrats have a chance to win back the House”

“The majority of respondents — 71 percent overall — said it was “extremely” or “somewhat likely” that Democrats would be victorious in November”

Am I being thick, or do these two statements contradict one another?

There’s not much that Trump has (imo) done wrong or hasn’t excited me to the point of hysteria where I’d find myself “complacent”. Quite the opposite.

I typically find someone has already posted my opinion, like you did here.

Although "don't like" is a bit mild.

Well.. Rasmussen published a survey yesterday that showed GOP voters are just as excited about the midterms as the bolsheviks are.

GOP is in danger because of inert or quisling GOP candidates. If they would get off their butts and actively fight for what they mouth in their platitudes they might actually energize the base. Too many look like backstabbers.

RNC needs to stop complaining and get their crap in gear....smashing the Dem/Socialist tactics on Kananaugh and touting the strengths of the progress.

Both are.

As far as I’m concerned anyone that helps a Dem win a seat is a Dem. I dont give a damn about how you dont like so and so for whatever reason.

If some of you want to “teach someone a lesson”, then do it in the primaries or go get a job at a school.
