Polls have completely discredited themselves during the election. It would take years to earn back the trust.

But tRump craves attention. While a 'normal' person would be concerned about such scathing reviews of his performance, to him, attention is attention.

He's not going to leave until the R's in Congress show him the door. Which they will once they get their corporate tax cuts and deregulation of environmental standards so Rex Tillerson's Exxon can drill for oil at Yellowstone and other national parks.

Then they'll oust tRump, put in Pence. They always preferred Pence and he's the Lady in Waiting.
I suspect you're right.

Because congressional Rs don't like Trump any better than they ever did, he doesn't like them any better than he ever did, and the cracks will start to grow.

He'll really be all alone up there.

Apparently, Trump still likes them - when they go his way. And that's what we're talking about here - how Trump reacts to polls. Not your reaction to polls, but Trump's reaction.

Can you blame him?

The election proved him right - only the polls for him were correct.

If the Cheeto believes in ratings, he believes in polls. Believe me. That, I can tell you.

I think the main thing "under the skin" is the liberal/left/dems rabid posting here on trump non-stop. Unhinged mania, ha! Seriously, for your health, you need to relax/learn some breathing exercises and buckle in because you got almost 4 years to go and most likely almost 8 years to go. And it's all out of your control/no matter of ranting will change that.

Here's some words of wisdom for you:

"Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change"


Or as George Constanza's father said on seinfeld....."serenity now.....serenity now!"
