It implies while you are able to not be impacted by the media -- everyone else is weak and can't make up their own minds who doesn't support your views.
It's arrogant and has little merit.
Folks today have so much information available to them -- more than they have ever had......from all kinds of sources.
It isn't the media at all -- it just isn't.
And this week, Trump's approval in the Gallup Poll, continues to be 39% and his disapproval rating is 55%. It's unsettling to think that even that many Americans would put trust in someone, who is doing everything he can, to destroy our nation.
The authors of plays from the Theatre of the Absurd, couldn't have written a script that was this bizarre. Lewis Carroll (Charles Dodgson) who wrote "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland", may have been the closest to having the imagination and ability. I expect there will be many works of satire and parody written in years to come, that will be based on the Trump Debacle. Maybe not by American authors, however, as we might have been driven to our expiration date.
or his numbers remain low and have hit lower resistance levels. Now imagine how swell his numbers will look if we hit a bump in the road in the economy....something he seems to be hell bent on achieving.
After decades of declining wages and the greatest transfer of wealth from the working class to the wealthy in world history, what would a "bump in the road" look like?
n 2010, as President Obama’s popularity spiraled downward, Jeff Greenfield wrote for CBS News that “historically, no president in modern times has significantly improved his approval numbers in his second year.” Don’t look now, but some polls show President Trump is doing just that.
In the second year of his presidency, President Trump’s approval ratings are climbing, to the utter horror of liberals, who cannot for the life of them understand why.
Some 51 percent of the country now supports the president, according to the Rasmussen poll – up from 42 percent a year ago. Moderator cut: copyright violation
Aside from the bs cherry picking of the polls and the fact that Rasmussen fell back to 47% a day later, pointing to Obama's polls should scare the heck out of Republicans. 2010 saw a huge loss of seats to Rs in Congress. The same could happen to the GOP this fall with the unpopular Trump at the helm.
I'm a fan of polls in the sense that I know how to use them, I add 5% to every Trump poll, because Trump supporters avoid pollsters/media more than any other sector of the voting public.
So you have to factor in another 5% for Trump's approval rating.
So in this case, Trump's approval is 56%.
BTW this is not Rasmussen vs some other poll, this is Trump Rasmussen vs Obama Rasmussen, so other polls are irrelevant.
Here's the thing -- if you put all of Pres. Trump's accomplishments on paper, e.g. the tax cuts, regulatory reform, border security, immigration reform, re-balancing trade, etc, etc. most people would say that's a great first year.
But as soon as you attach Donald Trump's name to it, the Dems and the radical left have conniption fits. It's more about the dislike of Donald Trump than it is what he's done.
Then there are the snowflakes that think he's a bully, which is total BS. The left is so used to having a cream puff milquetoast in the White House that they just can't deal with someone that won't put up with a lot of crap. The left is absolutely mortified that this president will stand up for for this country rather than going on world apology tours and turning America into a 3rd world socialist disaster.

What if your initial assumption about Trump supporters is false? You can't arbitrarily add 5% to a poll because of a belief that may or may not be true. That's not how statistics or polling works.
