    Who the fuck cares about his polling when he’s systematically dismantling American democracy and consolidating power with Congress and the Supreme Court supporting his every move toward a dictatorship whole the "opposition"party is again in God damn shambles?

    Completely focusing on the wrong fucking thing here.

    Not that it matter to trump one bit…

    However, as a Canadian, this matters to me a lot:

    trump’s approval rating currently stands at 47 percent

    This maybe be slightly under half (barely past the error margin of the poll)… but it tells me Americans did get the government they wanted

      Not me. I’m going to be bitching and moaning about it for the next 4 years. As well as enjoying a healthy dose of schadenfreude.

        Probably not many. My uncle listens to right wing podcasts all day. He used to constantly bring up their half informed talking points, but now… Almost nothing, but you can tell every time he does, it’s filled with desperation. Like he NEEDS me to understand he made the right decision. It’s all black tar copium

          • Sounds maybe even open to some kind of olive branch. I don’t expect an apology or admission of wrongdoing from anyone. If they can admit this isn’t what they wanted I’ll take it.

              Wishful thinking, were talking about people who WANT immigrants to suffer, they don’t care how. The only thing that matters now is that “they” are suffering and that’s unacceptable to them. Tho I can appreciate your desire for a common ground to fight against what’s happening, they hate us, literally just because we care.

            Nobody can prove it did not happen either.

            Anyone can say anything about any of the systems, and it would take a panel of experts to explain why it may or may not be a valid criticism.

            That is the problem with computer voting in the USA ; it’s inscrutable , the exact opposite of how a democracy should function.

      47% are extremely susceptible to disinformation echo chambers.

      The rich have eroded academic institutions and flooded the airwaves, muddying the waters of reality that only those with time and strong critical-thinking skills can parse.

      Put another way: if I was a psychopathic piece of shit I’d know that a dumb electorate is easier to grift and control. So I’d make sure they stay confused, ignorant, and apathetic.

    Soon to be declared the nations most unreliable poll. Not that it matters anyways. Some of our fellow citizens are literally advocating for a tech monarchy.
