This is Pew. Ignore it. It’s like the polls that said that Hillary would win in a laugher.

And Hillary is still never going to be President.

The problem is in the questions not the response. The only relevant question is, “Does the United States have a right to a secure border?” The questions show just how much the left has misrepresented the concept of a secure border and tried to turn it into an unpopular public works project.

If securing our border isn’t going to work, why is Mexico screaming like a mashed cat?

Clinton tops Trump by 9 points in new Pew poll

Sadly for Pew, public policy isn't based on their polls.

Too bad. The media are deliberately rigging polls to try and stop the President on everything. Just like the polls now claiming everyone loves Obamacare.

DJT isn’t a politician. He doesn’t operate on polls.

You’re right. I haven’t met anyone (and I work with many Hispanics) who opposes the wall, and ObamaCare was a key to Trump’s victory because Americans were finally seeing the impact of it (Obama had rigged it so it wouldn’t crush people until AFTER his re-election bid).

Most people don’t seem to understand the vehicle Trump envisions for paying for the wall: Import taxes. The average person seems to think Trump is going to send a bill to Mexico and they pay it. That’s not even close to what he said. Still, the MSM has done nothing to explain his position. Instead, they want to perpetuate the misconceptions being bandied about since it makes Trump look bad.

That poll you cited from Pew was 4 months before Nov. 16. What was their poll data closest to November?

"1,503 adults"

Wow, great poll.

Not likely voters, not even registered voters, just "adults".

Neither is reality ... apparently

Trump can make both the people in Mexico and the illegal aliens in our country pay for the wall by simply adding a tax on remittance payments to Mexico.

Easy Peasy.
