NBC/WSJ poll: Trump approval 'remarkably stable' after a stormy week of bad news
NBC News ^ | August 26, 2018 | Carrie Dann and Mark Murray

Posted on 08/26/2018 1:56:49 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

After a week that saw President Donald Trump's former campaign chairman convicted on eight counts of fraud and his former lawyer plead guilty to felony campaign finance charges, the president's job approval rating remains virtually unchanged, new polling from NBC News and The Wall Street Journal shows.

But the stability in Trump's approval rating also comes as more than half of voters say he has not been honest and truthful regarding the ongoing investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller. And fewer than three-in-ten voters are convinced that Trump himself is not implicated in the wrongdoing of the six of his associates who have now either been convicted of crimes or have pleaded guilty....

It’s called ‘overplaying your hand’ and too much crying wolf. After a while it’s just a bunch of noise even to those voters who don’t agree with trump. As Trump keeps on pressing forward with his agenda and not cowering and apologizing as previous Republicans and conservatives would have done; the media tries to keep up lying and spreading fake news to ‘supposedly try to break him. Guess who’s going to come out on top in the end?

This narrative is really getting old. What bad week? WTF did Manafort’s crimes have to do with the president? Or Mueller’s investigation?

The mistake the liberal media and the pundits make is thinking they are successfully pulling a coup like they did against Nixon.

What they don't realize is this isn't 1974, we live in a completely different world. In 1974 the liberal media controlled what was reported lock, stock and barrel. They controlled the three networks, they controlled the newspapers and they controlled the magazines. There was no opposing voices. What the liberal media wanted the narrative to be is what it was. Not so today, you have a thriving counter media in the like of Fox News, talk radio and the Internet. In fact, if you want to, you can tune the liberal media out completely and still easily obtain all the latest news you want. Not to mention President Trump can do something Nixon never could even dream of and instantly take his message unfiltered directly to his base through Twitter and other means.

President Trump’s support is stable because NO ONE except President Trump has a vision to solve the problems the US faces. The haters (both political parties) are so crazed in their attempts to bring down Trump that they’re quite happy to bring the nation down with him.

not terribly remarkable at all ... We Trump supporters quit listening to the lying leftist fake stream enemedia years ago because we know they’re nothing but a bunch of lying, anti-Trump propagandists promoting the Democrat Party ... so of course we don’t care what bullshit the lying leftist fake stream enemedia is spewing ..

the lying leftist fake stream enemedia has finally reaped what’s it been sowing for the last three years: namely complete lost of all credibility; no one who’s truly been paying attention listens to them anymore ... they can cry wolf falsely only so many times until no one believes them anymore ... and that time has finally arrived for the lying leftist fake stream enemedia: they’ve cried wolf hundreds of times every day for three years now and every speck of their credibility is gone forever and can never be recovered ... ever ...

Trump approval 'remarkably stable' after a stormy week of bad FAKE news

More stormy. What is the left's all-consuming obsession with strippers. Most red-blooded males appreciate the well-formed undraped female form, but at the end of a day's work. We all get up, take out the trash, get a beer, eat dinner, take the kids to school and then go back to work.

As Aristotle told us there is a golden mean between the passions and the intellect. Leftists really need to get control of their impulses.

“And fewer than three-in-ten voters are convinced that Trump himself is not implicated in the wrongdoing of the six of his associates who have now either been convicted of crimes or have pleaded guilty.”

That right there tells you all you need to know about the MSM. They spend week reporting about all the people who were tangentialy connected to Trump who have been convicted and the voters begin to draw conclusions, conclusions that might be false.

Bottom line, it’s the media fault for reporting such stories.

The skunks just had to slide the word Stormy into their headline, didn’t they? President Trump is not guilty of anything, as Mark Levin ( like or hate him ) so clearly stated this week. I have no fear of losses in Nov., ONLY GAINS, no matter how much the wretched scum repeatedly say otherwise.

Today was full court RINO rehab. EVEN Hillary was surfacing on MSNBC to get in on the rehab action.

Not to rehab McCain’s obituary, but rather to use his death to rehab the classless never-trumpers, rinos, and scumbag dems.

Fake news spewers better get used to this and settle for participation trophies in the Wile E Coyote Trump Frustration Award contest.

Calling Chuck Todd. He said today the distrust of the media is due to the conservative echo chamber. Here’s a news flash for you Chuck - Americans believe the media is biased because they witness it everyday. That is why the media’s incessant attacks haven’t had the influence they thought they did. They’ve been crying wolf, before he’s done, Trump will have them crying uncle.

His followers are not stupid. The media has cried wolf way too many times. We are not buying it and, it’s their own damn fault.

They haven’t figured it out yet. We are immune to the squawking of the media.

What these guys can’t seem to get, is that Trump’s supporters see his political enemies as more dangerous to the Republic than those same enemies think Trump is.
