Latest Harvard-Harris poll holds Maalox Moments for Dems: Here’s what the media slipped by us
The Coach's Team ^ | 7/8/18 | Kevin Collins

Posted on 07/08/2018 8:22:58 AM PDT by Oldpuppymax

The latest Harvard-Harris poll has nothing but bad news for Democrats. The chances are you didn’t hear about this because you and I were not supposed to know what the results were.

In spite non-stop attacks, Donald Trump’s approvals is up to 47% which is +2 in a month. Trump is proving that, whatever doesn’t kill him (and there doesn’t seem to be anything that can) has made him stronger.

By 69/ 31 Americans see the economy as strong.

By 68/26 Americans are saying their personal financial situation is strong and improving.

Trump’s approval on creating jobs is much higher than his overall approval rating:

When it comes to stimulating job growth 58% approve of Trump’s performance with another 57% approving of his job on the economy.

Trump is solidly backed on his DACA compromise with 63% standing with him showing NO change in months. Another 61% want MORE border security ending any thought the Democrats might have about selling America on open borders which is favored by just 24%. A huge 76% said secure the borders.

SIXTY Percent want a wall consisting of physical barriers and electronic barriers.

Fifty One PERCENT say illegal aliens bring crime with just 7% saying illegals reduce crime.

By 69/31 Americans do not want ICE disbanded and the whining from Democrats about being too tough on illegals has backfired with 70% saying we need stricter enforcement.

Sixty four percent Immediate deportation for those caught crossing our border illegally.

On the question of allowing those who cross our border illegally with children, to stay 61% said NO send them back and another 53% said prosecute even parents with children when they cross our border...

Based on your screen name maybe you’re in a good position to explain, but I’m guessing 30% of the population may be hard-core democrat/liberals who will never change or acknowledge anything Trump does as being positive.

Maybe it’s less than 30% but it’s got to be between 20 and 30% based on what I see who will swear the sun rises in the west if Trump says it comes up in the east.

That’s right, and that was my point. Hard core, gullible Dims who won’t acknowledge anything good during the Trump Years

I got a poll call on Friday night..

Lady sounded AA. Very pleasant. “Just a few questions”...

Every question was biased against Trump. I kept answering that I was REGISTERED Republican-—voted for Trump—Would NEVER have voted for anyone else—would vote for him for another 100 years if I could.

She finally rather abruptly stopped asking questions & cut off the conversation.

I did ask which party was doing the poll, but she didn’t answer that.

I would _so_ love to write ads for any Republican running for Congress or Senate this year.

Here it is, for free.

Show a house in an average neighborhood.

Open the front gate.

Open the door.

“If you believe this house is now safe vote for (insert Democratic opponent name here). My name is (insert name of Republican candidate here) and I believe in defending our nation’s borders. American needs your help this November.”

Good idea. I would go a little further. Rip the gate out and batter down the door. Follow with VOTE DEMOCRAT.

President Trump is truly American main stream President.

It is the echo chamber they are in.

They attribute all good economic news to President Obama, and all bad news to President Trump.

They reflexively say the “economy is not improving” because they think that hurts President Trump.

I am staying in the Madison, Wisconsin area, and that is what I hear from intellegent, well educated people.

Rather bizarre,

You can be intelligent educated, and ignorant of current reality, all at the same time.

More than that, they form their opinion first,(conservatives bad) then try to rationalize everything around them through that looking glass.

What cannot be rationalized is simply ignored.

If the demonic-rats want to take Trump down, they better bring Kryptonite.

31 % says not improving? Good lord, stupidity reigns in Dimwit circles

Old quotation.

"There are three types of people:

Those who MAKE things happen,
Those who WATCH things happen, and
Those who look around and say, "WHAT happened?"

"In spite non-stop attacks, Donald Trump’s approvals is up to 47% ..."

It's BECAUSE of the nonstop attacks that we are not getting a true reading of the public's sentiment, IMO.

I have little doubt that many poll respondents have been cowed into hiding their approval of the president.

When you get a government check you don’t care or notice what the economy is doing. You really have no connection to it.

“Or when you lose your job, your situation isn’t improving. Have a little compassion instead of judging right away. Everyone’s financial situation doesn’t improve just because yours does. Mind-numbing callousness often reigns on FR.”

unfortunately, we see such callousness here all the time regarding less fortunate folks ... and i think one thing many here fail to appreciate is that a significant percentage of folks at FR are not that well off economically either ... people here should at least practice charitability of the heart (which costs nothing), even if they don’t necessarily practice charitability of the pocketbook ...

“Trump is the name. Winning is the game.”

or restated in the classical form: “Trump is my name; winning is my game”

“Or, what is left of their core. #Walkaway”

my own perspective is that the Dem “core” are the hard-core leftists, and are not the ones who did or would #walkaway ...

i view the lot of registered Dems as an onion, with the outer layers being the most thoughtful, and descending layers becoming more and more radically strident as the core of the Dem onion is approached ... it’s the outer layers that are peeling away ...

I lost my job on May 31st. Since then I’ve had 3 interviews, two job offers, more interviews scheduled next week, and I’m learning that there is not enough of me to go around. The last time I lost my job in 2009 it took me months to find a new job and I had to move everything 600 miles to a new area. To say that this economy is booming is an understatement.
