concha Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 While the non-stop whining, bleating, protests and all-out left-wing media assault have been keeping most of Trump's approval ratings down, the fact is that the American people appear to support what he is actually doing for the country. This certainly isn't what you hear from tuning into the butthurt mainstream media Clinton fan club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GloryDays Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Support for three of the eleven actions is over 50%, eight are below. Is that the wrong way to look at this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the wrong way to look at this? You choose how to look at it as you wish. "For" and what are apparently undecideds/neutrals outweigh the "Against" folks anywhere from 16% to 34% depending on the EO. If someone doesn't like Trump, then I guess they could view the undecideds/neutrals as in their camp "but they just don't realize it yet". Unlikely given that amongst the folks with an opinion, the Against crowd's closest number is -5% and as bad as -22%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that, started to respond and then just figured, why bother. If someone thinks that 3 of 8 is a passing grade, there really is not much to say. what surprises me the most is that so many Americans are so fear filled as witnessed in the 55% moslem ban approval. What a country of scared sheep we have become. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

concha Posted February 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Probably worth pointing out that 7 of the 11 are roughly at or higher than Hillary Clinton's percentage of the popular vote that we hear so much bleating out (which was well below 50%). The other four have For numbers that are 5% to 14% higher than Against. Hillary's margin in the popular vote was 2%. Just a little perspective.

And almost all of Trumps approval numbers are at or below Trump's popular vote percentage. But that hasn't stopped you from claiming that his approval rating is really 59% Your attempts to sell this cow flop are comical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

concha Posted February 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 I turned off Ignore on Canes as I thought this would be entertaining. What do I see? Well, Canes REALLY not liking that Trump's EO's are clearly well supported. I'll stop replying on the Session's stuff, as Canes' "perspective" on the man hinges mainly on 30 year old testimony from one guy whose own witnesses contradicted him and a guy who is a left-wing Soros operative that has been sanctioned by a federal court for his unscrupulous behavior. To Canes, these are "credible" people. Bon appetit, Canes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So his defenders invented one. Among the fabrications: Sessions’s defenders initially said that he began his career battling segregationist Alabama governor Lurleen Wallace, a talking point that disappeared shortly after The Atlantic reported that her Republican opponent was also a segregationist. Under questioning by Minnesota Senator Al Franken, Sessions conceded that the claim he had filed 20 or 30 desegregation cases was incorrect, another story first reported by The Atlantic. Sessions’s allies pointed to his work reducing the crack-powder cocaine disparity––but that was a compromise bill that did not entirely remove the disparity precisely because Sessions himself opposed doing so. Sessions supporters cited his 2006 vote for the reauthorization of the Voting Rights Act, but he did so along with 97 other Senators. Years later, when part of the law was struck down paving the way for a flurry of restrictive state voting laws, he praised the decision.

Since concha's laugh out loud lie about 59% approval, his rating in Rasmussen has dropped 7 points to 52% as of yesterday. It seems that the only outlier poll is starting to fall back to the average.

Regarding Sessions' claims of having filed 20 or 30 desegregation cases: The Atlantic could not find evidence Sessions filed any new school desegregation lawsuits. Searches of the legal databases Westlaw and PACER found no evidence that any new school-desegregation lawsuits were filed in Alabama’s Southern District by Sessions between 1981, when Sessions became U.S. attorney in Alabama, and 1995, when he became Alabama attorney general, though it is possible that the records exist but are not in those databases. The Atlantic could find no reference to the claim in the transcripts of his 1986 confirmation hearing. Former Justice Department officials and civil-rights experts expressed puzzlement when asked about the claim, in part because nearly every school in Alabama was under desegregation orders by the 1970s, years before Sessions became U.S. attorney. Several historians and legal experts who focus on desegregation said they were also unaware of any new school desegregation cases in Alabama filed during that period, let alone by Sessions.
