47% think US is heading in the right direction! HIGHEST IN 12 YEARS AND UP 9% SINCE LAST WEEK

LOL

Christ, the owning of the totally one sided mainstream media keeps going!

Waiting for the usual cucksters to fabricate and spin this... i wish you good luck with this one

how many of this 47% are graduaded economists or have a degree in politics science ?
how many of them did ever read a book about history?

if there are 47% believe in that it only means that 47% are fucking stupid and soon 47% of americans will be disappointed soon.

but stoop - what about the other 53 % ?

Trump and his administration say polls are fake & meaningless.

Trump thinks polls are fake and meaningless

So you quote the GOP funded Rasmussen poll that favors Trump you have no integrity.

Rasmussen: The GOP?s cure for the common poll

It did not take long.

Spin: 47% are stupid.

Their arguments are getting more and more sophisticated

Small business owners are also stupid:
Small business optimism soars after Trump election

definately YES - that´s WHY they are SMALL business owners

they never can see into the future because they just see what is in the cash TODAY.
but if their cash is full or empty depends on the large businesses what giving the majority of jobs and the money what can end up in the small business owners hand.

predicts of this group did never and nowhere come true - and they are not even asked in representative surveys. that is the same as you would aks the people on the street - they can give you only an answer for the moment but nothing what can be used as a forcast.

Rasmussen talks mainly to conservatives. Just thought you should know that.

47% of what ?

Turds in a sewage farm ?

Klan dudes at a hahahahahaha burning ?

Billionaires at a peasant eating ?

Lizzards at an illuminati conference ?

FFS man give us a clue !!!!!!!

Sure. I wonder how come their election poll:
Election 2016 - Rasmussen Reports?
got +- actuall numbers of ALL voters, not just conservatives mainly ( in that case polling would be 80/20 or 90/10 or whatever).

of likely US voters.

People who don't vote don't matter in these polls.

You live in Slovakia and don't even know what you're talking about in American politics.

Also the Rasmussen poll is paid for by Trumps political party. BIASED

Trump supporters think polls are fake news get with the program.

He doesn't care, the funny part is the poll he's touting shows 47% also think the country is headed in the "wrong" direction. That's a pretty telling sign when a conservative biased poll is split 50/50..

That 47 wrong is the lowest number since years and years.

And I already replied to the remark of polling mainly conservatives, see #11

All polls are rigged. Fake news!

Even those "rigged" polls still only miss by a few points or so. In this case accuracy to ther point is not the most important.

That's a poll of only 3000 people. Hardly a good data set to extrapolate out to represent the entire country.

47% approved
47% did not

You don't need spin to see that one half of the country is smarter than the other half. Time will tell which one is which.


As for this poll, they always seem very favorable to Republicans. All other polls are below 30% approval on this subject.

The "did not" number is LOWEST since years and years.

Not exactly the same. Very similar, but different questioning.

Educate us on polling techniques and sample sizes, you seem to be an expert

Trump, less than 2 weeks in, is already the greatest President in the HISTORY of the United State of America

It's already been explained that your poll source is well known in America as a Republican leaning poll, polls that Trump says are all Fake.

Rasmussen: The GOP?s cure for the common poll

This is why sites like fivethirtyeight.com exist, they average ALL polls to get an honest look at what people really think.

I am arguing for or against 3000 sample size with her.
Not republican or not leaning.

As for republican leaning - I just posted Trump VS Hilary numbers. That turned out to be +- similar of ALL voters.
If it was republicans mostly, poll would have said something like 80/20 or 90/10 or whatever.

So that "leaning republican" is just a few points at most.

My investments are continuing to climb so I say...

Trump Nation

No it's not just a few points. How old are you? 18? This is the problem with foreigners thinking they're experts on a countries politics half way around the world.

There are things Americans know who live here and see analysis you don't see online.

I gave you the fivethirtyeight.com link so you could educate youself and have integrity when quoting polls but clearly that's not on your agenda.

You just want to support a foreign president and feel like a winner putting Americans down who don't support him ( the majority of voters ) Judging his opposition as unpatriotic in a country you're not a citizen of to feel like a winner is pretty pathetic to be honest.

You know someone is losing an argument when they attack the voters.

America is still run by the type of people you claim know anything and it's been going down for that long.

What big business do you own?

Whether the US is heading in the right or wrong direction, it's too early to tell.

For most Americans, it's been heading in the wrong direction for decades. There's only one group who are winning.

Jesus Christ Paul way off the mark yet again. Another foreigner who's a sudden expert on American politics who posted yesterday that Americans got what they voted for not realizing Trump lost the majority vote. Jesus fucking christ

OK as an inside expert. Explain why so many companies and jobs are going to China and other third world countries, why the migration problem has not been dealt with, why most people are poorer, why your economy relies on casino banking, why you keep wasting $trillions on unwinnable wars, why your health services are so expensive, why infrastructure is deteriorating, etc?

Take your head out of your liberal ass and answer.

Companies are greedy Paul they goto the cheapest labor/production source Paul you know that stop acting stupid you know better.

Did you know migration to USA from Mexico is NEGATIVE the last 2 years? Did you know Obama deported more Mexicans than ANY president?

These are basic things you can Google before asking. Or if you live in California like me they are hometown issues we deal with daily.

Obama's Enforcement Of Immigration Laws: 5 Things To Know : NPR

I'm not even reading past this these are basics you should at least Google before lying and saying immigration hasn't been dealt with.

Why lie Paul? You're better than that.

i did not attack voters i attacked the headline.

if 47% think america is going to the right direction it means that 53% do not or do i calculate wrong?

thats sounds like: 2% of the humans are happy - great job !

i think it is not a good sign that just a month after the majority of the states (not the ciziens) voted for a new president only 47% think that america is on the right way.

furthermore it is a stupid question to ask the people on the street because they do not have a clue yet what the result of this "way" is. they all can tell you AFTER.

polls can tell you something about the internal situation of a country - but in fact you would not even need polls for that. i was in the 90s a trend scientologist and i was doing a lot of studies for big reseach institutes. in one of this studies we found out that we only have to look at the hitparades to understand the actual existing vibes.

but here we talk about a politics what does not regulate internal problems of a country. trumps politic have a GLOBAL impact and if you want to get an answer on that question you do not have to ask american people you have to ask the world.

to make a survey in america is the same as you would go to the white house and ask trumps muppets show if he is a good president or not.

america is still not understanding that 99% of their problems are based on their 2-party system and their complicated and unfair voting system. they should change that first before they have no other choice as to vote for a clown.

as i think that you never even read or studied world economy or even the money circle i will answer just one of your questions because this will answer the rest:

1. because prosperity is not defined by the money people make per month - prosperity is how much they can buy for it. with higher manufactoring costs people can buy less and that leads to less prosperity.

2. america is not a chaep labour country - means it can not competite in that with other countries - but america is a high tech country where it CAN competite.
you can´t take part on a formula one race with a bicycle and expect to win that race or try to make new rules waht gives a speedlimit to the formula1 cars. this is not progress it is stepping back.

3. amercia is mainly an export country for high tech. to who they are going to export this high tech if not to the 3rd world what does not have any high tech yet?
and do not tell me that they can´t afford it. china baught more planes and trains from usa as usa baught planes and trains from usa.

4. you say you do not want immigrants? fine ! if they get a job in their country they will not come. and to keep their jobs in their countries they will import hightech from US.

is that clear enough for your beer table economy knowledge or shall i explain it with bees and flowers?

i mean not only that - you have to relativate this number 47%.
do you remember a few month ago there where she shocking news in germany that ONLY 56% still agreed with the politics of chancler merkel.
56% ONLY !!!!!!!
that was already a warning signal for all 157 parties including the gouverment party.

imagin if this number would fall on 47% - new elections would be very probably.

this headline says nothing else that 53% of us do not think america is on the right way - and wait a few weeks more it will be over 60%
