Almost Half The Country Thinks Donald Trump Is A Racist
Huffingtonpost. ^ | July 4, 2018

Posted on 07/04/2018 2:36:50 PM PDT by SMGFan

Nearly half of voters think President Donald Trump is a racist, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released Tuesday.

Forty-nine percent of voters said Trump is racist, while 47 percent said he’s not, according to the poll. These numbers are similar to those from a February Quinnipiac poll, where 49 percent of voters said Trump was racist and 46 percent said he was not.

Forty-four percent of voters said they think “racist beliefs” were a motive in Trump’s immigration policy, while 50 percent said Trump has “a sincere interest in controlling our borders.” Sixty percent said the policy of separating children from their parents at the border was a violation of human rights.

Since enacting the policy, Trump and his associates have repeatedly pushed false, racist narratives to garner support, often associating immigration with high crime rates despite no evidence to support claims that immigrants commit more crime than U.S. citizens.

Is it just me or are there any polls nowadays from any source that actually mean anything. Most people I know don’t pay any attention to polls.

You’re welcome. They sure have because it does not fit their narrative.

Nice screen name by the way.

The actual cancer is “people” who dump their kids into the arms of the government and onto the backs of the tax payers to educate their children.

Horace Mann is burning hell.

...and despite over 3 years of effort by the left wing media that hates Trump, more than half the country still doesn’t believe their BS.

I’m flabberghasted...by the same people who claim Trump is a person of color (Orange), accusing him of “racism”.

The real problem is, the “race card” has a history of being used against a person who is hated, disagreed with, or jealous of, as it is the “magic” solution to proving otherwise.

What they really mean is, he’s doing away with the unfair gimmes, set-asides, privileges, and advantages, and dey don’t like it.

Don’t even glance their way, Trump...besides, it was polled by a “college”...so what did you expect?

If it is in the Huffington Post add 10 points to the other side on anything they publish. 10 points would actually be low. Just look at what they published before Hillary lost her ass.

"Definition: Na·zi ˈnätsē/Submit noun 1. historical a member of the National Socialist German Workers' Party. SOCIALIST!!!!!!" The greatest rebranding in history was reinventing the Nazis as "right wing." It was done because they had damaged the socialist brand. Then, the communists fell in the 90's and that became bad. That's when we ended up with a bunch of euphemisms for socialist and communist...they became "progressives." They have control of the language and therefore control of the narrative.

First this is a huffington puffington post article.

Second, the definition of racist has become so fluid that it is nothing but a meaningless label.

Polls are designed to shape public opinion, not measure public opinion.
