Polls Don’t Tell the Tale—Trump’s Support is Deep. Here’s Why…
By Rabbi Dov Fischer| July 25, 2017
https://amgreatness.com/2017/07/25/polls-dont-tell-tale-trumps-support-deep-here2/

As a conservative Republican, I harbored concerns when I voted last November for Donald Trump to be my president. I knew that I had to vote for him, given the unacceptable alternative of an incompetent liar who had placed me in a basket of “Deplorables”; had destroyed 33,000 emails that she covertly maintained on her bathroom server while telling me that the emails all concerned yoga classes and wedding dresses; had lied to me and the families of those who fell in Benghazi about what had really happened there on another 9/11; and really had nothing to show for decades of public activity but a résumé of failure from HillaryCare, Whitewater, and Travelgate to a mediocre tenure in the State Department.

Her “Russian reset” had been a disaster. She had met many dozens of world figures, logged many thousands of miles of air travel, and had eaten well at many state banquets, but she had nothing of lasting substance to show for it all. During her State Department tenure, the “Arab Spring” devolved into a nightmarish winter. ISIS grew from a junior varsity to the major leagues of barbarism and terror. And she even had found the opportunity to scream on the phone at the Prime Minister of Israel, while denying the Jewish right to build without restriction in Jerusalem.

So I voted unhesitatingly for Trump. But, again, I had concerns.

Although I recoiled from the Republicans-in-Name-Only and “Never Trumpers,” I did share some of their bemusement. Would he be a true conservative, or was he really a liberal and a conservative hybrid at once, a man bereft of grounded ideology who simply tilted with the direction of the day’s breeze, capable of being turned by the last voice to compliment him?

"or was he really a liberal and a conservative hybrid at once"
In the past, most Great Presidents were.
Trump would be but the lib's are too hell bent on destroying him. :shakeshead:

We hear a lot of talk about Trump supporters, but not enough about the other side of that coin, the 58 to 64% who disapprove of him, including 48% Highly disapprove, which is a nice way of saying we absolutely loathe, despise this inept, dishonest, delusional clown and want him out of there.

That includes an equal % of independents

These numbers totally dwarf his support numbers. All that's needed is the organization to weld these groups together in a popular front and it's bye Filicia to this unfortunate blip on the historical record

16% dissaprove of Trump due to his policies - compare that to 65% for Obama during the same time in his term, 43% for GWB jr.

So once again, you fail

The fail's on you.

16% chose "issues/policies" as the main reason for their disapproval. For all you know, most of the 65% that chose "personality" as the main reason, also disapprove of his issues and policies. The poll doesn't address disapproval for multiple reasons.

Indeed, he's quite competent in lying.

At least, he practices enough...

I go by the data - you go by speculating and gut bias. The polls are pretty clear - especially when compared to previous administrations. People don't like trumps tweeting but they love his tax cuts - I can live with that

And you're sticking up for atta - a new low for you.

His supporters would happily give their lives for their Emperor.
Skipping leg day is the equivalent of a woman having an abortion. You're ashamed of it, and it was probably unnecessary.
