Since everyone gets to vote, what matter most are the overall numbers, which are as follows, regarding Trump’s handling of his summit with Putin:

20% strong approve
20% somewhat approve
15% somewhat disapprove
41% strongly disapprove

That’s 40% approve, 56% disapprove, which is obviously not good, despite how some are trying to spin it.

And 57% are nevertrumpers who strongly disapprove of tax cuts, booming economy, the recovery of manufacturing, lower unemployment, jobs, jobs, jobs, stronger military, stronger borders, and every other good thing this president’s policies have brought us.

And how many of the 41% are folks telling the pollster what they understand to be what the pollster wants to hear?

Pre - election polls strongly supported the idea that we would be wailing and gnashing our teeth over President Hillary Rodham Clinton this very day, and those polls were piles of manure...

true. I think what tempers the bad news is that 3.5 months from now we WON’T be at war with Russia, and the economy will be going gangbusters. Everything the Dems have predicted, has not come true. That has to start being reflected at the polls.

The “somewhat disapprove” are easily persuaded by other factors they care more about.

It’s just not a big deal to them.

Unlike yourself.

Not true. What matters MOST in politics today is to keep your base with you and motivated. Each election is basically decided by which side decides to turn out. The “middle” is basically composed of bandwagon jumpers.

While you’re busy crunching poll numbers, what were polls predicting on Nov. 7, 2016? I’ll wait.

This has to be multiplied by the number of those who vote and by the importance of the issue to those voting multiplied by the number of voters who will remember the issue months from now. My guess is the product of the multipliers will be near zero.

The big question is: whom did they poll?

The DNC and illegal aliens — or actual US citizen voters?
