Of course she lost all three states.

Warren and Sanders poll much worse than Hillary (Biden won't be the nominee, btw).
This clearly illustrates how the polls are purely propaganda. I'm shocked that so many people here pay so much attention to them. If you average up a bunch of propaganda, you wind up with the propaganda average RCP poll that so many hang their hats on.

I dont think they'll ever learn. They WANT to believe them so badly, they are desperate for any kind of win, even if its made up.

Please keep believing polls, and tell every Dem you know about them. Tell them 2016 polls all being wrong was just a fluke.

Funny irony. Dem over reach helping Trump.

+1 for you for using RCP average rather than cherry picking polls to suit whatever side you are on.

I usually don't like to get into tit-for-tat arguments, but I feel compelled to let you know that only you know what the hell you are talking about. I AM THE BASE, and I am telling you that for the first time in my life, someone is listening to me. Other members of "the base" post here regularly, and they are all equally happy.

Please, seriously, this is not an ad hominem--get out of the house more, talk to some real people, and for god's sake, listen instead of talking all the time. You may actually learn a thing or two.

The following accomplishments are real:


Tax cuts
Phase one with China
First President to take on Chinese intellectual theft, currency pegging and dumping
New trade deal with Canada and Mexico
New trade deal with Europe
NATO allies now paying more
Deregulation/ 2 to 1 rule
Pats of wall built or repaired, with money now set aside for hundreds of miles
Catch and release ended
Mexico enforcing border
Re-made the judiciary from top to bottom
New vetting on immigrants from terrorist sponsoring countries in place
Soaring stock market
Record low unemployment
Investigating the abuse of FISA courts
Obama care gutted/individual mandate gone/new cross-state insurance rules
ISIS gutted
Iran treaty ended/Soleimani killed/no war
Manufacturing INCREASED OVERALL during his tenure (unlike bush and Obama).
Keystone Pipeline approved
TPP dead
Return to Constitutionality with reversal of illegal executive orders on Dreamers and Obamacare.
Thwarted Russia at every turn: Washington has expanded NATO once again, strengthened sanctions on Moscow, supplied the Ukrainian military with lethal weapons, boosted aid to the Baltic countries and launched missiles against Syria's Assad regime.
Companies such as Disney, JP Morgan Chase and Verizon sharing wealth with employees and explicitly citing tax cuts.
Companies coming back the the US from oversees, and citing Trump in the process.
Taking on fake news and exposing spurious sources.
Exposing attempted coups involving the electoral college, 25th amendment, FISA courts, FBI, Russia hoax, and Ukraine impeachment hoax.
Great post! (And a LOT of people agree with you.)
I am one extremely liberal Democrat who does.

Well said. My brother said the same. He’s been a liberal his entire life and I was shocked when he said he likes Trump and that he’s been doing a good job and that this impeachment process has been a joke and a huge waste of tax dollars. I don’t usually talk politics with some of my relatives but he volunteered.

I believe plenty of intelligent Dems and liberals feel the same.

Don't bother citing some individual poll--this is the average. And don't bother with "so now Republicans believe in polls." They are rigged towards the Dems. He is probably five points ahead of this.

In any event, he has gained 3 points or so since this all started.

Discuss.
So, he is guilty of lying to the American Public, he broke the law according the the AOC (or whatever they're called), his legal team is not even trying to deny it in the actual Impeachment case, and you are proud of this?

YOur post basically "brags" that "Our POTUS has broken the law, is getting away with it, has proven lies, and it only encourages us to like him more". Today's GOP. Reagan is twisting in his grave.

Only during the Trump presidency do his supporters cheer a higher disapproval than approval rating, by double digits. Bare minimum requirements for this presidency.

Yup, that's what it comes down to, the simple minded congresswoman from NYC claims that something happened, thus it had to have happened. Lack of supporting evidence and evidence to the contrary be damned

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

As McEnroe would say, “YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS.”

Can’t wait for the moment he’s frogmarched out of the OO.

After Bolton’s book Draft is read in front of Congress....

Reagan and Lincoln both.

Even Nixon had more respect for the constitution, and his most diehard supporters were more realistically patriotic and respectful of the US constitution and ethics.

This bunch of Trumpteas makes no sense: they agree that Trump should lie to themselves with impunity, they cheer that he defies the legal requirements of good governance, they even boast about polling numbers which show the majority of the people disapprove of him, it is manic ...
