Watched the Joe Walsh part of this on the news today, show discussion is how Trump did poorly on Fox poll against Democratic candidates, republicans who are thinking twice about supporting Trump again, Trumps daily lies since his election and his ongoing racist comments and actions that excite his base but is losing support from average republicans.

 
If they are referring to that Fox poll from a few days ago, you should know that the poll was bogus. They sampled almost 50% Democrats.

When taking a general sample it does not make the sample incorrect. It very well could mean that more and more people are leaning Democrat...

I'm sorry. Are you linking to a vicious anti-Semite race baiter and hustler, Al Sharpton?

No, but it does mean that replies must be weighted. It gets technical.

This sort of polling is almost useless at this point. A year from now, when candidates and issues are clear, that will change.

What will be useful when it comes out is the Des Moines Register poll for Iowa. Both New Hampshire and Iowa are already well engaged in the process, so picking first and 2nd choices has already begun. The rest of the country, not so much.

You feeling ok mycroft? Last time I saw on here it was all dems in the poll. Try to keep up with the program.
 
Parity in politics as with football is good for ratings. Fox is no different. Hype the matchup. Dems have NO chance with their current lineup. Trade deadline is when? Who are they going to call? Moochelle says she's not interested; so probably means she wants it. Oprah says she's not interested; probably means she wants it. Al Franken should run.....he was robbed. Lol

You are sorry. Maybe once Trump is booted out of office, and if he's not in prison, I'll link to Trump News (formerly Fox) for my race baiter articles. If you're saying Sharpton is an anti-semite, and referring to those like Omar who disagree with Israeli politics and their treatment of the Palestinians, then you're wrong. You can disagree with the leadership of Israel and not be a Jew hater, plain and simple.

Oh, no no no! I'm referring to Sharpton's screed about "blood-sucking Jews in Hymietown". You know, that anti-Semite stuff which incited riots and the killing of a Jewish man. Not that he ever apologized for it.

Do you seriously think 48% of the people in the US are Democrats? That is ludicrous.

Anyway, here is the post I made in that other thread about this Fox poll:

Mycroft said:
From the Fox poll: Sampling by party affiliation

Dem: 48%
Rep: 42%
Ind: 12%

Fox News Poll, August 14 | Fox News

National Party affiliation according to Gallup:

Dem: 27%
Rep: 29%
Ind: 38%

Party Affiliation | Gallup Historical Trends

Seriously?

I don't know which is worse...that Fox thinks they can get away with this deliberately manipulated poll...or that they actually CAN get away with it.

POLL REJECTED!!

Now...you can go ahead and believe this bogus poll if you want to. I reject it.

Most likely didn't apologize because he didn't say it. Seems you are mixing up your black men....hey, they all look alike right?
 
Now Trump is crying about Fox news not being fair to him. He worships Fox news when they report anything favorable or give favorable opinions of Trump whether real or imagined.....now he gets a poll which puts him behind and he can't handle it without throwing a hissy fit, he's weak and impotent, he never grew up.

Trump Blames Media Bias Not His Total Failure As President For Bad Polls

Trump Blames Media Bias Not His Total Failure As President For Bad Polls


Trump claimed that he would have great poll numbers if it wasn’t for media bias instead of his failure at every aspect of the presidency.

Donald Trump is a person who understands little about political strategy, and what he knows, he has mimicked from watching Fox News.

Trump saw Fox News become the number one cable news network by attacking media bias. Republican claims of media bias against them date back more than half a century.

The difference between Trump and others who have mined this tired stream for political gold is that he has convinced himself that the media is holding his poll numbers down.

Trump, and most presidents, frankly don’t understand that their media coverage is a reflection of their own behavior.

The White House complains that the economy gets too little coverage, but nearly every day, Donald Trump is hijacking the message with racist attacks or some sort of inflammatory language.

This president has failed in every aspect of his job.

His legislative accomplishments are non-existent.

He has tried to take the country’s moral compass, set it on fire, and throw it in a dumpster.

The trade war is Trump’s biggest foreign policy move and it is a total debacle that is pushing the country toward recession.

There is no area of success in the Trump presidency. Trump took the Obama economy and slowed it down to being on the verge of recession.

The problem isn’t the media. The problem is Donald Trump

Chickens are coming home to roost.

You can fool all the people some of the time and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.

Ummm...

You do know that a national poll is supposed to reflect the whole nation, right? That bogus Fox poll doesn't reflect the whole nation.
