WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump frequently casts his first year in office as a string of successes and campaign promises fulfilled. But less than a quarter of Americans think Trump has made good on the pledges he made to voters while running for president, according to a new poll by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

“But less than a quarter of Americans”

Code for “ we asked mostly non-citizens, including illegal aliens, who don’t like Trump”

Keep that in mind, when you read these polls.

I don’t know if this is fake.

There is a section of voters who are for Trump but are completely sold out to China. They are happy.

However there are those of us who are NOT happy our entire manufacturing base has been sold out to China.

We are still not happy with things. Granted I am very happy Trump won.

But go into any Walmart in America. Any Target. Any Kmart. Go into basically any retail store in America now.

“Made in China”.

This is not how to grow America.

It just isn’t.

Because they do not watch anything but fake news.

The MSM is responsible for the fact that America does not know.

Trump is the cause for optimism. It’s the country’s reaction to him that makes people pessimistic.

If it keeps the rest of them in bed and not out protesting in the streets, then let them believe they’re not losing.

The stock market and online/retail sales for Christmas dispute this finding.

Americans do not spend money unless they have relative confidence in the state of things. I know this from personal experience, because I questioned every purchase and quashed many of them during the past eight years.

People are pessimistic about organizations like the Associated Press. It is made up of horrible people.
