No, you jackasses in the media made approval polls meaningless because you fake those polls like you do everything else.

No, media skewing polls to get the results they wanted is what made them meaningless.

“from taxes to health care to immigration to the environment—are rejected by thumping majorities of Americans.”

What “majority” is this leftard talking about? THAT majority voted for him, stupid. This Fake News Fag should get a life.

Yummy tears:
“He is where he is because roughly 80,000 votes in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania—about 1/30th of 1 percent of total votes cast—gave him his Electoral College margin. “

Well of course he has! Just as he made your faked-up manufactured election polls obsolete you dummies. You use polls to influence voter behavior, Trump uses Twitter to take his message directly to 50 million voters.

How is this possible?


Because poll can no longer be trusted. They have been “weaponized”, a tool to create public opinion not measure it.

Polling companies have followed the media in choosing sides and now they are paying the price.

The drive-bys expect Trump to govern according to fake approval polls. He didn’t take the bait. Thank God.

The reason why we elect representatives is not to be ruled by the whims of the masses of asses. Especially when the leftist propaganda media controls the narrative and whips those asses into a frenzy.

Anyone as badly misled by the poll numbers they read in '16 as the author apparently is really has no business clinging to them now. Learn or lose.

For one thing, the recitation of the usual litany of fervent progressive beliefs that the election was tainted by the Russians and lost in the general count probably isn't going to listen to advice anyway, but here goes. They boil down to a single principle: stop putting your faith in fantasy and you won't be disappointed.

The citation of Roy Moore is almost laughable - could it be that the voters don't care about the hate avalanche from the media because they don't trust the media anymore? Could it be that media manipulation is failing repeatedly and they're the last to know? Could it be that Trump isn't really that unpopular after all, and that the turnaround by GOPe stalwarts is due to pressure from their own voters who are tired of the slow walk and the foot dragging? Could it be that the outrage at Trump's robust communications is as phony as a Hollywood prom virgin? Could it be that all of the arguments that the author finds so persuasive aren't really very impressive after all?

Could be. This, for example:

The stories about Trump reaching “a new low” or “rebounding” look more like rounding errors than any meaningful movement, or the usual variation between different pollsters.

It's a clue. You don't look for numbers if you're a professional, you look for trends, and there isn't one. After a year-long, intense media hate campaign the like of which hasn't been seen since the last World War, nobody is turning. An intelligent human being begins to question fundamental premises at this point, an ideologue and a fool bewails, "what's happening? Why isn't it working?" and never questions those premises. Too bad.

Wow - the comments section at the article is a hoot.

Most of those folks have a severe case of TDS. Trump is living in those demented minds rent-free, 24/7.

The same polls that assured us Trump had “no path to victory”. Wrong then, wrong now.

How is this possible?

we’ve wised up and don’t believe the fake stream media, that’s what happened!

We don’t believe propaganda masquerading as news, like this story for example, that proclaims the charges against Roy Moore are “highly credible”. These charges are anything BUT credible and large numbers of people from those time periods have refuted the claims of the accusers, but of course the Democrat lapdog fake stream media, like politico for example, will NEVER publish information like that because actually telling both sides of a story is anathema to what the fake stream media is about, namely pure and unadulterated Democrat propaganda.

The tax cut bill—despite being about as popular as North Korea—moved significantly closer to Senate passage

Houston we found the problem. Cranial rectal inversion. The tax cut bill is really really really really really unpopular here in the Swamp. Oh and let's not forget the fact that Trump is a Putin lover.

Not only do they lack the ability to understand, but they don't even want the ability to understand.

It's not about finding out what folks want, but telling them what to think. Are you a racist or do you agree that Trump should be impeached? You can nuance the question how you want, but that is the prevailing view here in the swamp.

Don't worry, he'll do much better next time. Then all you whiny leftists will admit he is legitimate, right?
