In the month leaded up to the election on November 8th, we repeatedly demonstrated how the mainstream media polls from the likes of ABC/Washington Post, CNN and Reuters repeatedly manipulated their poll samples to engineer their desired results, namely a large Hillary Clinton lead (see "New Podesta Email Exposes Playbook For Rigging Polls Through 'Oversamples'" and "ABC/Wapo Effectively Admit To Poll Tampering As Hillary's "Lead" Shrinks To 2-Points"). In fact, just 16 days prior to the election an ABC/Wapo poll showed a 12-point lead for Hillary, a result that obviously turned out to be embarrassingly wrong for the pollsters.
But, proving they still got it, ABC/Washington Post and CNN are out with a pair of polls on Trump's favorability this morning that sport some of the most egregious "oversamples" we've seen. The ABC/Wapo poll showed an 8-point sampling margin for Democrats with only 23% of the results taken from Republicans...

The same people who did the phony election polls, and were so wrong, are now doing approval rating polls. They are rigged just like before.

Every single “poll” before election day showed Hillary Clinton creaming Trump with over 400 electoral votes..how did those polls work out for Saint Hitlary..not well, not well at all
Is anyone surprised?
There was only 1 poll that mattered and that occurred in November. All others are folks looking to affirm their pre-conceived notions and should be disregarded. Trump may pay lip service to most polls but I truly doubt he bases his decision making on them.
Someone needs to poll only Republicans and find out what O’s favor-ability number is. That is another poll they are skewing, I know many that voted for him are not happy with the job he did.
ABC/Washington Post and CNN
The trifecta of fake news media
Fake News! ;-D
These people should be mocked and ridiculed continuously.
They are partisan frauds and liars.
Swamps take a long time to drain after the plug is pulled. It won’t even get pulled until Friday afternoon.
If they were smart, they’d have better candidates and might have won something.
Polls like this are exactly like pre-election polls, they are about influencing people’s attitudes much more than reporting them. The same people are doing them, with the same motivation. I will pay just as much attention, which is to say none.
Even the “Obama 2009” comparison report shows that 62% of REPUBLICANS favored Obama in 2009. Even THAT poll was rigged, because there is no way 62% of Republicans approved of Obama in 2009.
They have learned nothing from the last pres campaign. GAY News9 in Tampa had Trump down by double digits literally until the FL polls closed election night. When they realized that the Dems cheating in Broward and Dade weren’t enough to win it for Her Heinous, THEN they finally saw the writing on the wall.
The same lying polls that said Hillary would win handily are lying about Obama’s approval ratings. This is nothing new, and they should be ignored.
Ha ha ha. Your gonna call us fake news!... well this will show ya!
I’m so glad Drudge has this story as his main headline.
It needs to be broadcast everywhere.
Fake poll as many here suspected.
