Don’t trust Rasmussen. Today Trump is at 50-49 with a plus one approval. He was at plus eight two days ago. With their rolling three day average he’s going to be negative tomorrow. All of the other polls have him consistently in the low forties or even upper thirties. And they don’t have crazy ass swings. Will Trump tweet about Rasmussen tomorrow?
You would latch on to a poll, but when it was more favorable to Hillary than Trump, you’d call it a fake poll and then go find another poll that favored Trump. And when that poll changed to favor Hillary, you’d just to another poll.
And that’s what you’re doing now. It’s called “confirmation bias.” Or being paid.
This poll actually has his approval at minus 9, 43-52. But Fox posted it so Trump tweeted it. Because Trump makes all decisions based on what he sees on the channel that’s so nice to him. Which should be frightening to everyone.
It’s no different than the lawyer saying something in front of the jury knowing the judge will force him to take it back and instruct the jury to disregard it.
I’d disagree with the idea that Trump won the EC by a comfortable margin. The EC numbers hide the fact that Trump only won the EC because of about 77,000 votes (about 0.06% of the total votes cast) in three states (Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan) because the DEMs screwed the pooch by: (A) ignoring the states during the campaign, and (B) nominating Clinton.
