Polls are junk science, they can be manipulated any way you choose.
That's why you can't believe voting polls.

I don't care what Reddit or Twatter says, most sane people that voted for him would disown his ass if anything was proven.

Does anyone really think that we wouldn't know if he made trips to the island?  The Democrats would have ran on that. 
Shit, social media is basically dead anyway, somewhere in the neighborhood of 70% of posts are just from bot farms.

Speaking of that, FB, a publicly traded Co with advertisers buying adds based on activity.  If it's proven that most of the traffic is bots, don't they have a lawsuit case?

Trump was lying?!?!

Who woulda thought?!?! :rolleyes:

Trump no longer distancing himself from Project 2025 as he uses shutdown to further pursue its goals

Excerpt:
QuoteThursday morning, Trump announced he would be meeting with his budget chief, "Russ Vought, he of PROJECT 2025 Fame, to determine which of the many Democrat Agencies, most of which are a political SCAM, he recommends to be cut, and whether or not those cuts will be temporary or permanent."

The comments represented a dramatic about-face for Trump, who spent much of last year denouncing Project 2025, The Heritage Foundation's massive proposed overhaul of the federal government, which was drafted by many of his longtime allies and current and former administration officials.

No new wars and stuff too. That will age well when the strikes on Venezuela soil start

Excerpt:

Trump was distancing himself from Project 2025's desire for a national ban on abortion. He hasn't wavered on that. In fact pro-life groups are disgusted right now because his administration just approved the generic version of the abortion pill making it cheaper and easier for women to kill their babies. Here's a tip, If you want to cause division in the republican party you should lead with that.

Lol. Talk about cherry picking. 😁

There won't be any division between hard core Republicans because they don't care about anything but party loyalty and unity.

It's the independents who are going to start taking note of what Trump is doing.

For the record, it was the FDA who approved the mifepristone pill. I expect the head of the FDA will be fired shortly, replaced by someone more loyal and utterly unqualified to be in the position, and the decision reversed.

that's not cherry picking. That was what the democrats were running on. They made abortion a major part of their campaign against Trump and used project2025 as their evidence that he wanted to impose a national ban on abortion. And Trump said, I had nothing to do with project 2025. How do you forget so quickly.

Still waiting for that link to the "22% of Trump voters would still vote for him is was found out to really be a pedo." Poll @pmartin

I suspect your scorching case of #TDS flared up and you couldn't help yourself.

Oh shit. If you cared to check it out you would read/discern that I NEVER liked Trump, NEVER. It's not TDS, It's just my opinion of the man.

Trump keeping promises

" is delivering wins the Left said were impossible: a secure border, a strong economy despite tariffs, universities scrambling to make deals, and foreign threats diminished.
But these successes are the reason the Left is seething."  (from your link)

I'm not seeing successes. 

Southern border might be more secure, but as a nation we certainly aren't.  The pomp and distractions are just letting China become stronger and changing the alignment of geopolitical alliances and partnerships. 

Strong economy - sure it seems to be chugging along despite the roller coaster nonsense of tariffs, but inflation continues to be strong as well.  And the economy seems largely propped on a continued (stock) valuation bubble, especially technology companies.  The lessons of the last several Republican administrations has been a bunch of deregulation (environmental, financial) that lets the rich skim a bunch more off the top, and then it implodes in their wake and they leave the Democrats to clean up after them.

The universities scrambling to make deals is just a mafioso-inspired shakedown at best.  At worst it's a federally mandated thought police.  (No one is forcing you to go to a university - if you don't want to participate in their so-called indoctrination, don't go.  If you simply prefer different brands of indoctrination, there's always church or scouts or your favorite podcast.)

I don't see foreign threats diminished.  China chugs along just the same.  Putin continues to do whatever he wants unchecked, and seems to become bolder as he realizes how fickle our leadership is, changing its stance weekly or even daily.  Israel continues to do whatever it wants (genocide) which maybe isn't a direct threat to us, but is certainly destabilizing to the region which has global ramifications.

Did I miss anything?

You made a spectacular claim. Spectacular claims require evidence to back them up. So, did you pull that number out of the sky? 

Please, cite the poll.

Um...I'm pretty sure that there is no poll compiling my position on anything. The evidence as to my opinion of Trump is in my posting history, You are of course welcome to search that to your hearts content, although I'm not sure that you possess a content heart.

Perhaps you are confusing my post with someone else's post?
