Media makes trump out to be hated. Yet poll they use show him tied with obama thru one year

From what I have looked and seen, the one thing about polls and what all they mean is this:

never take the one poll as the fact, as it is just a selected slice of the country and does not represent the whole. But instead look at a large number of polls and then take the average to get a better idea of the truth.

What point is that?

Does it have anything to do with this op?

Op states that he does not believe in polls but still uses this one to say people like trump, did you have anything to add, or just trying to remind me your relevant.

Is that what I said?

Maybe you need to re-read it.

Now I don't put much stock in these polls. But the media does. They have been using them all year to tell everyone how hated trump is.

What's that you were saying.

Those are pikes. Pointy poles!

Another useful political tool...

I can't tell if you're calling DBC a tool or if that's just how you are signing your posts from now on.

I'm sure you can understand the confusion.

I said I dont out much stock in polls BUT THE MEDIA DOES.

I then said that this poll shows trump was equally as popular as Obama at this time in office.

So this shows the media stupidity in using these polls.

Hopefully that clears it up for you.

The topic is "Media makes trump out to be hated. Yet poll they use show him tied with obama thru one year" not opinions of each other or anything else. Even in the Mud Pit personal attacks are not allowed and this most certainly is not the Mud Pit.

Post on topic or move on if you are incapable of following such a simple rule.

Do not reply to this post.

Rasmussen Poll = conservative polling outlet. That's why.

a reply to: Swills

Using a Rasmussen poll to say Trump's numbers are as good as Obama's is like me bringing out a blm poll showing that Trump's numbers are much lower. Polls are usually bogus anyway but if you are going to use one how about using one that is less biased.

People lie with polls now.

Most people will not tell the truth if they favor Trump but will vote for him anyway.

The only poll that truly matters is the one held last Nov. where 63 million voters across America personally insulted Obama by dumping his chosen successor Hillary, and his failed policies.

63 million out of 235 million ..sounds like a ringing endorsement.
It is what it is.

It did the job the country needed. Already better in one year than the last 8 years combined.

qz.com...

This page shows Obamas approval ratings from beginning to end. He never went below 40%.
Trump is at 32% in some polls.

In "those polls" you mention, do you have their numbers from Obama at this same time in his presidency? If not, then that comment is moot is it not? Since you cannot compare equally, and therefore, it becomes your opinion. Which as we all know, is worth as much as mine or anyone's.....which is nothing.

news.gallup.com...

Ill say this polls right now are largely based on the media and pushing Russian collusion. If Mueller ends his investigation without charges being brought against Trump his popularity will jump up. This tax break will make many change their minds as well. To be honest with the overwhelming bad press I'm amazed he isn't in the teens. So I think the polls are very close to reality.

This seems a bit fruitless...

But I’ll opine...

Firstly, if you pay attention to any form of interactive services, social media for example...
You do not need a poll or media opinions to see that POTUS is an extremely hated person...

Secondly, 53% disapproval is not the same as hate...

Finally, to argue against the fact that Trump is hated, based on this criteria, it would have to be combined with the belief that Obama wasn’t also an extremely hated person...
Which is just flat out false.


So... I’m pretty confused as to the point to be honest.

From cell block A?

I wonder if a year from now, maybe two if you will still be clinging to this dream. It is as likely as Hillary winning president I guess and we all know how bad you wanted that to be true, and how hard that must have been to let go of, silly.
