This will surely come as a surprise to many here, but a majority of Americans disapprove of Mr. Trump's reaction to the Orlando attack and of the proposed Muslim ban. Americans prefer responses given by Obama and Hillary. This is not good.

Quote:
President Obama gets net positive ratings for his response to the shooting in Orlando. 44 percent approve, while 34 percent disapprove. About a quarter don't have an opinion.

When asked to assess the responses of the presumptive nominees for President, Americans are divided on Hillary Clinton's response to the attack, while ratings of Trump are more negative. 51 percent of Americans disapprove of the way Trump is responding to the Orlando attack, while just 25 percent approve.

Most Democrats (62 percent) approve of Clinton's response, while just half of Republicans (50 percent) approve of Trump's. More independents are critical of Trump's response than Clinton's.

Trump recently reiterated his support for temporarily banning Muslims from entering the United States, but most Americans don't support this. 62 percent think the US should not temporarily ban Muslims from entering the country, while 31 percent think the US should do so.

It was un-American and traitorous. It aided and abetted the terrorist to attack domestically more frequently. It caused political upheaval that the terrorist want. Trump is a big part of the problem in our whole fight against terrorism. Constantly inciting the enemy. Took a victory lap on twitter about "being right, thanks for the congratulations!"

Absolutely. There's a reason America's enemies are rooting for Trump. He's an epic failure who is determined to take America down with him.

I think there should be a balance somewhere.

Muslim ban is not practical, but there is definitely radical Islamic terrorists problem in this country and the world.

So telling the enemy he wouldn't put up with this garbage is 'inciting' them?


Would you rather vote for this guy?

Majority? From 1001 randomly called phones? CBS reporting is pretty lame these days.

The poll consisted of calling 1001 random phone numbers and speaking to whoever answered the phone.

This poll was conducted by telephone June 13-14, 2016 among a random sample of 1,001 adults nationwide.
The poll employed a random digit dial methodology. For the landline sample, a respondent was randomly selected from all adults in the household. For the cell sample, interviews were conducted with the person who answered the phone.


No wonder the ratings of all these MSM outlets is tanking. Only those who blindly support bought & paid for establishment politicians pays mind to them these days.

Well, that's kind of how random sampling works...how would YOU prefer that they conduct a random poll? Ask only people that you like?

If this same poll, taken the same way, was favorable to Trump, you'd start 10 threads saying that it is irrevocable proof that he will win.
