Republicans overwhelmingly back Trump's performance at Putin summit: Poll
Washington Examiner ^ | July 19, 2018 | Katelyn Caralle

Posted on 07/19/2018 8:06:54 AM PDT by GonzoII

The vast majority of Republicans support the way President Trump handled his first summit meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday, according to a new Axios poll.

The poll said 80 percent of Republicans approved of Trump’s performance, while only 8 percent of Democrats feel the same way.

The partisan split could be seen in other things the poll measured. For example, 85 percent of Republicans think the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 elections is “more of a distraction,” while on the other side, 85 percent of Democrats feel that the possibility of coordination between the two entities is a “serious issue.”

Perhaps they thought the Rosenstein press conference while the President was on foreign soil was a sign the coup was activated and President Trump was going to be “arrested”.

It turned out to be a nothing burger and they were so disappointed they lost their minds, again.

It sure would be nice for someone to research all the Presidents back to FDR forward & make a list of the world leaders each President met with.

Why did the liberals go full meltdown mode, and compare the damn press conference to 9/11, Pearl Harbor, Kristallnacht(sp?) in Nazi Germany?????

That is our fault. For many, many years people who voted R would simply throw our own under the bus if Democrats threw dirt at them. We didn't wait to see if there was anything to it, just an attack was enough. Republicans in the past would resign immediately in the face of attack or mud slinging, knowing the R voters would not stand up for them.

Now that we are on to the dims and their games, conservatives especially but more and more Rs are standing up to the dims and fighting back. This is new to the dims, all their mud slinging, lies, attacks are not working and they keep trying to find the one gem that will cause us to throw Trump under the bus.

The dims still have no idea how or why President Trump was elected, but he is undoing their destroy America plan and they hate him for it. The dims have no idea why their attacks are not working, so they are doubling down.

At this point with the level of anger at the dims, and growing anger they are actually working hard to re elect Trump in 2020 with all this attacking- but they have no idea about that either.

I have to throw in my vote in support of Trump’s performance at the summit. Democrats are simply insane with hatred.

I felt and thought the same thing - really seemed out of wack and contrived. I don’t think it would have mattered what happened or was said at the press conference

I agree, Paul is doing a wonderful job of shoving the Goebbelsmedia’s faces in this nonsense.

This lie is being used the same way the Nazis used propaganda and for much the same purpose.

What could have been a bigger lie than that the Jews were plotting to take over the world and Germany had to save it?
Yet, millions of Germans believed in this idea so much that them trying to carry this program out produced over 50 million deaths.

Then you have the problem that “The Bell Curve” warned about - the concentration of low IQ in specific areas filled with criminals and the poor.

So literally you have Districts dumber than others.

The latter has been shown to be composed of people with IQ’s from 10 pts below normal and perhaps as much as -1 standard deviation from the mean.

“Idiocracy” comes to mind.

The poll I want to see is the response made by women.

This is the part of the electorate who’s vote will swing on this issue.

You are correct.

If liberals actions affected only them it would be fine. But that’s unfortunately not the case.

Haha. “Possibility of coordination.” I thought they had proof he did. Now it is a “possibility.”

"Republicans overwhelmingly back Trump's performance at Putin summit."

Maybe they should have said "Real Republicans"... Lots of those back biting son of a guns in DC think otherwise....

The big question is: whom did they poll?

The DNC and illegal aliens — or actual US citizen voters?

The left loved Russia, when they were communist.

Who is a TRUMP Supporter but won't support TRUMP now because he doesn't believe his intelligence agency when they said Russia hacked the U.S.?

The Media + Democrats are overdoing this BS!
