President Donald Trump at 36 percent approval among African-Americans: poll - Chicago Sun-Times

Trump approval rating with blacks now at 36%, Rasmussen poll says

Ah good old Rasmussen.

Newsweek – 17 Aug 18

Donald Trump's approval rating among black Americans is actually too good to...

While the White House struggles to combat Omarosa Manigault Newman's charge that Trump used a racial slur, the president has touted misleading figures concerning his approval rating among black Americans.

Other polls black approval rating of Trump at the same time period.

NAACP: 21%
Gallup: 13%
Reuters: 13%
Quinnipiac: 9%

I guess he’s not lying. Just cherry picking and rounding up.

36 or 40,

rounding error

Chicago Sun-Times – 17 Aug 18

Trump at 36 percent approval among African-Americans: poll

That is a staggeringly high number for a man who only won 8 percent of the African-American vote in 2016.

As the Washington Post’s Aaron Blake pointed out, the President may have been referring to a daily tracking poll performed by Rasmussen that, according to an Oct. 29 report from the company, showed 40 percent approval for Trump among black voters.

a lie or a mistake?

Your subjective truth. My subjective truth has Trump’s approval at 98 grilled cheese sandwiches. He also has a Senate and House completely full of Republicans, and Pelosi is in prison for crimes against humanity.

Don’t mean to disappoint the cherrypickers while they’re taking a break from their strawmen, slippery slopes, deflections, baiting, flagging posts, and repeating typing the words “seriously” and “literally,” but this article gives the topic just a tad more perspective.

If you add all of those together, his approval rating is 56%.

I don’t know why the pollsters don’t add them together.

How do I know?

Rational and logical thinking.

In short supply among the right these days.

Allan

biggestal99 · 2018-11-05T13:55:35.711Z

Any other conclusion would not be true.

If @WuWei had 1,000,000 just lying around, I know funding a rag tag bunch of foreigners in a unlead caravan would be at the top of your list of things to do with the money.

Usually a billionaire would want some ROI on their investment.

What would be the ROI for Soros in this endeavor?

Power. Lol funding 4,000 people who have no leader who are meandering towards American border with the goal of wanting asylum.

Sounds silly to any rational, thinking human being.
