I think Trump may have his own “leakers” leaking fake news to Tapper and others and it’s proving them liars.

I think this is all going sideways for the Dems. More and more people see Trump as a decent, honest guy. The left’s shrill, ridiculously-unhinged ranting and raving about him is only succeeding in making them look like the pathetic losers they are.

That's a very cogent and compact analysis, Jenny, and very, very spot on.

That is precisely what's happening, and the Dems willingly put themselves in that position.

We’ll see, but I thought it was a pubic statement that Chris Wallace, at least, has tonight resolved his cognitive dissonance.

Those "pubic" statements will create cognitive dissonance every time.

Freudian slip?

What is telling with the numbers.
65% A: That means quite a few people who DIDN’T vote for Trump, thought he did GREAT.
2% B: Honest people who watched.
3% C: Lifelong dems who begrudgingly give Trump, a Republican, any credit.
1% D: A lib who has fooled themselves into thinking they are objective.
29% F: A moonbat lib, who hates for hates sake. Pussy hat wearer and Ashley Judd fan.

When such a large portion of the opposition gives you HIGH marks, you know the ball was hit out of the park.
The fact that there is hardly anything in the middle, exposes the fact that the 29% F, aren’t dealing with objectivity.

I could understand libs being less enthusiastic and giving B’s, C’s and possibly D’s, but that’s hardly the case.
Heck, I’d imagine the 2% that gave Trump B’s, could be Trump voters that refuse to get caught up in the emotion and chose B, just to feel like they were more objective.
Same with C’s.

The fact that there is hardly anything in the middle and that A’s required so many opposing to jump over, shows that the 29% F’s aren’t objective at all. THEY and they alone, are the party line split.

Last night marked the night that will show Trumps approval ratings start to rise.
He broke the hardened exterior on a lot of people.
They will begin to have a more favorable view, instead of a stone set disposition. They may be cautious, which is okay, but now they will be open to the idea, that Trump is actually doing okay.

It will also expose the MSM for what it really is, if they keep going the way they’re going.
Though we here see it, it’s important that the squishy middle see’s it.

Exactly.

In order for Trump to get 65% to admit he got an A, means that a lot of “anti” Trump people thought he did good. But not just good, but GREAT.
There is barely anything in the middle.
When a significant amount of your opposition gives you an A, it exposes the F’s for who and what they truly are.

Unless the MSM changes tacks, they will expose themselves for their blatant bias.

Many of those “opposing” Trump, who gave him an A, will now have a more objective view of him. Even if it is slight.

That objectivity will expose the left for what they really are.

Big positives for this speech means the left has failed to delegitimize Trump. I wonder if other polls are looking this good. Public response to the speech is more meaningful than for past presidents because Trump got no honeymoon. If the public approves, it really means something.

It was a historical speech of its kind - had to suck to be a Dim sitting on one’s hands so as not to applaud with the sane folks...

CNN’s snap polls have always been heavily biased against Trump...

As have their talking heads. I clicked on one of the links listed above to see about the poll, and the triple chinned guy talking to Wolf Blitzer's first comment was that the poll results were going to be distorted by the fact that percentage-wise, more republicans would watch the speech than Democrats.

They were never so careful about poll bias issues when the polls favored Hillary or Obama before, were they?

Should have been 90% approval. I guess haters gotta hate. When all our lives become better within the next few years, will the haters budge? I doubt it.

Ain’t it funny how the headline puts out the 57% number, rather than the 78% total positive?

The vapidness is overwhelming...
