Poll: Trump’s travel ban polarizes US
The Hill ^ | 1/31/2017 | Mark Hensch

Posted on 01/31/2017 7:50:45 PM PST by SpeedyInTexas

President Trump’s temporary ban on visitors from seven Muslim-majority nations has sharply divided Americans, according to a new poll.

The Reuters/Ipsos survey released Tuesday found that slightly more people approved of Trump’s controversial measure than disapproved.

Forty-nine percent said they either “strongly” or “somewhat” agreed with Trump’s recent executive order on immigration and refugees.

Forty-one percent, however, “strongly” or “somewhat” disagreed with the move, while 10 percent remained uncertain.

It looks like 10% are just waiting for the Super Bowl commercials to come on.

So it’s news that America is polarized? Perhaps election night should have given the writer a clue...or the pussycaps march.

Raise your hand if you think they would have used the same headline if the results were 49 - 41 the other way.

Yeah, this nation wasn't polarized before his Executive Order. (Hack, spit!)

I don't seem to have seen the article written about Soros promising $2,500 a month plus $25.00 and hour to protest. These people are supposed to get free transportation and certain benies as well.

I wonder if that sharply divides America. (Hack, spit!)

Pick your poll.

Well that’s a damn shame if we are “polarized”. /s I suggest everyone just support it and problem solved.

“slightly more people approved of Trump’s controversial measure”

LOL. 49% to 41% is not “slightly more people”. It’s millions of people.

This would be very hard to measure. My guess would be that the nay votes are political, and that it has 90+% honest support.

In other words; Who in the h3ll could be against more through vetting?

especially considering this poll probably over sampled dems like it usually does. Ras has it at 57% support which is not even close. There is no polarization at all.

Now that Russian hackers have been laughed off the page and the “delegitimate” movement went nowhere, the latest and greatest enemedia meme is President Trump “polarizes” the U.S., something that has never happened in the entire history of our country. Of course, nothing President Obama ever did was reported as “polarizing” the country, even though apparently 32 states worth of voters disagreed with that assessment.

At any rate, here’s how the new “Trump polarizes the country” meme works:

“President Trump did [fill in the blank] and it polarized the country.”

We’ll see that every day from the enemedia until it no longer seems to be thing to attack with, and the enemedia will then move to the next latest and greatest anti-Trump meme De jure.
