The more you hate him, the stronger he becomes.

But, but MSM told me this morning that people trust the media more than they do Trump.

And the media have been reporting crisis after crisis with Trump — an administration in meltdown and all that. But he’s solid in polls??? What the heck????

When he’s at 60%, he has full control of the Bully Pulpit and can ask Americans to turn RINOs and RATS out of office.

At 60%, the people will do anything for you if it furthers the direction you’re trying to go, that they love.

But every leftist in my NYC office is expecting Trump to be impeached any day now.

Is there a disconnect here or what?

Based on election poll bias, Trump’s actual approval rating is 62-65%

One publication says he’s at 37%. Another say his policy on X is approved by 73%. Another publication says he’s at 55%.

They are all over the map.

These have to be gamed.

Nobody is paying attention to this anyway.

The public is hard at work and appreciative that Trump is too.

CNN had him at 38% today.

Tell me again how polls provide information rather than propaganda.

I’d like to see an all in effort to get rid of Paul Ryan. He is a bigger problem to the agenda we voted for than Pelosi.

I am fearful that because the refusal of the Republican Senate and House to eliminate Obamacare and install the new tax the first few month this year that the majority of voters will not support the party. The reworking of the tax structure should have been worked on for years and ready to go. They will use the fiscal year an an excuse to delay until next year, and on and on and on.

They will never repeal Obamacare totally. Mark my words. Damn Republicans are worthless. All talk and that is it.

He won the electoral college majority with 47%

So he can win it again, with 47%

And conservatives can get what has been promised by “true” and “real” “conservative” professional politicians for decades.

He’s ultimately going to be in trouble if he doesn’t get solid, promised tax cuts through soon (with the nasty new BAT tax added on).

But instead I’m reading this:

Ivanka Trump’s involvement in tax negotiations between the White House and congressional Republicans is a signal of her influence with her father despite having no formal role in his administration. Dina Powell, the former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. executive who is an economic adviser to the president, is helping Trump to ensure a tax overhaul includes both the child care benefit and a requirement that employers provide paid maternity leave, policies that she pressed her father to embrace on the campaign trail last year.

“Ivanka is really pushing that none of it gets passed unless it includes the child care tax plan,” said Sheila Marcelo, founder of www.care.com, a website to find babysitters and other caregivers. “She and Dina Powell are really pushing to make sure it gets included.”

Ivanka’s plan is projected to cost (and you know it will be more) half a trillion over 10 years! And she’s trying to hold up the promised cuts over it!

These past couple weeks we have all seen 4 or 5 polls that say people trust Trump more than the media. Now we have one poll that says the opposite and which one do you think the media trumpets. God, I hate these mf’s

Paul Ryan rode a horse at the border the other day. Wasn’t it impressive to see him learn about our border problems that way??? He’s really quite the urban cowboy isn’t he????

It appears both the RATS *and* RINOS in Ryan’s district conspire to keep him in office and being the Uniparty Goalie for any conservative attempts at scoring. He may have to go down the old-fashioned way.

I read the Ivanka article in Bloomberg, too.

I’d like to know on what authority Ivanka can threaten to derail the tax overhaul if it doesn’t include the child care and maternity leave benefits.

I sure hope it isn’t the President’s.

She wouldn’t be in the meetings, gumming up the works and threatening a disastrous policy—right offs for couples earning up to $500K!—if her daddy didn’t clearly give her everything she wants.

I’ll say it again—Ivanka and Jared should be in NY running their businesses and Don and Eric are the ones who ought to be in DC reinforcing Trump’s policy impulses.
