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...

“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”

and many of us are simply hiding from the pollsters themselves ... i’ve got ever blocker known to mankind on my phones, including programming my own filtering website based on my voip provider’s API ...

You're not a STEM graduate, are you.
That is NOT a fraction.

It means that 69% view the economy as strong, and 31% don't.

D'OH!!

Thanks for explaining, FRiend! It was unclear. No need to get snarky.

Nope, I’m not a STEM graduate.

I’m an entrepreneur with a bunch of technical patents who has successfully started up and sold two companies. The first went public in the late eighties, employed 400 people. I sold the second seven years ago.

Just fooling around now with some personal projects.

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

There can be a lot of reasons for the 31% to answer the way they did. If they are in a career that is stable, such as in the FBI where they can't even be fired for trying to overthrow an election, they probably can't tell if the economy is doing well or bad outside DC because outside DC might as well be Mars.

Or lots of people judge the economy by who is in charge politically. A guy I work with put all of his investments in cash because he is sure Trump will crash the economy. He has since let a 30% rise in the stock market pass him by.

I saw a Hahvadh intelbelchable on Tucker Carlson last week; Tucker had flummoxed the lightweight and gave him a few seconds to sum up... Hahvadh held up two fingers in the victory sign and said Socialism will win in the end! with a knowing smile of arrogant confidence.

How fortunate that we cannot afford to send our children to Harvard! This is what they teach: Socialism, which has kllled over 100 million people and failed every place and every time it has been tried will win in the end... so embrace this total failure and you will succeed in the outcome! geeeeze!

They over-sampled Dems 5%, and they still couldn't get the results the "Baird Men" wanted.

A similar thing happened to me in 2010.

I was only able to get week-to-week assignments at one branch of the company, so I inquired about any and all opportunities.

They found one 1500 miles away, so I piled everything I could into my car & relocated, for a 4 month TDY.

Work there kept coming in, so they made me a permanent offer, which I accepted.

Fast forward to now; word is, the branch of the company I left behind is hiring like crazy.

Economy is rocketing upward, thanks to President Trump !

These numbers, coming from this source, are devastating for the Democrats. A tip off that they are likely legit is the fact that just 52% think Trump deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts with North Korea, It says the sample pool was NOT stacked with Trump fans who just wanted to say good things about Trump. Also the 69% who see the economy as improving means lots of Democrats are on board with that fact.
One other factor not in this list of good news items is that last year saw the lowest number of applications for Social Security Disability payments in 15 years. This means people who would have maybe faked disability to find a way to live went out and fond a job, They preferred acting like Americans instead of Democrats. This country is on the move again because of people like them. America was not built on disability payments but workers. November will break the Democrats in half and no amount of Democrat/media talk will change that.

>>their core is going to vote 100% in November

Their core never votes 100% in non-presidential year elections. Especially in the last decade. A ton of their voters only tune in when a big race is involved.

America should start prosecuting any adult that smuggles a minor across the border with child trafficking and child endangerment if they are not the legal guardianand or with child abuse if they are .

Man, those poll numbers are terrible news for the Dems. I think their only hope is to move harder to the left.

I mean, come on, guys. Reach deep inside yourselves and release your inner Communists. Wave that hammer a sickle with pride, and don’t be afraid to stomp on the stars and stripes.

Don’t hold back! Show America what you really stand for! It’s the only way to win in November!

They probably didn't see an increase in their welfare benefits.

...he may end up with a Reagan-like landslide in 2020.

I find myself already wishing that we could have him for three terms.
