The majority of Americans tend to agree with Democrats on top issues, polling shows
CNN ^ | Apr. 7, 2019 | Grace Sparks

When it comes to considering the top political issues facing the country -- immigration, health care and gun control among them -- politicians in Congress can give the impression that the public is hopelessly divided on policy solutions.

In reality, the polling shows the majority of the public usually backs policy positions preferred by the Democratic Party.

A new Gallup poll released Thursday showed that two-thirds of Americans said protecting the environment should be a higher priority than economic growth and only three-in-10 who said economic growth should be given priority, even if the environment suffers to some extent. This is the highest prioritizing of the environment since spring 2000.

If true then the majority of Americans are too stupid to be voting.

Reminds me that pollsters couldn’t find anyone who would vote for Trump. Only a very brave soul would answer that question, the way it’s worded, to damn the holy environment at the expense of a payday.

“... who said economic growth should be given priority, even if the environment suffers to some extent.”

So basically gimped wording to elicit a desired reply.

“So do you think a good thing should come with the result of a bad thing?”

Looks like it was a CNN poll, so I guess it can be discounted. Does CNN even know/recognize any real Americans? Every other poll I’ve seen shows the American people rating the “environmental concerns” dead last on the list in importance.

Loaded questions, to get desired answers. Who dares say econ growth is more important, even if the environment suffers?

Hey, Grace, BS.

You could ask a question in a way that GETS YOU THE ANSWER YOU CRAVE.

I just read that media accuse President Trump of lying 8 thousand times. Most of the count comes from the times he said...”No Collusion.”

It’s really HARD to believe those lying critters.
