Hillary just told a national audience ISIS is using videos of Trump as a recruitment tool. Where are they?

If you assume that those who made the decision either to bomb or to not bomb Agrabah have made the same mistake in assuming that Agrabah is a real place, then 43% of Republicans are complete morons versus 54% of Democrats.

Even if 75% of those who said 'don't bomb' knew that Agrabah wasn't a real place, it would still be 33% of Republicans and 25% of Democrats.

No matter how you crunch the numbers, there is still nothing to brag about from either side.

Was this a follow-up survey at Yale to the one about eliminating the First Amendment?

So when is the media going to release a poll of how many Clinton supporters want the U.S. to take in immigrants from Agrabah?

"PublicPolicyPolling: "We asked the Agrabah question to Dem primary voters too. They oppose bombing 'it' 36/19, while GOP supports bombing 'it' 30/13"

More Democrats are opposed to bombing a country that doesn't exist than Republicans favor bombing a country country that doesn't exist.

And there lies the philosophical divide between conservative and liberal.

They should have asked what percentage of Democrats think that even asking questions about bombing Agrabah could be considered hateful rhetoric that could lead to justifiable acts of terrorism on the part of the Agrabahanians?

Based on yesterday’s debate I would guess about 95% of them.

So, pollsters are asking questions to make fools out of us; yet, it never occurs to them that we do it right back?

“Can he sue her for slander?”

No, but Trump can do something far worse. He can tell the truth about Hillary Clinton without being ignored by the mainstream media. That’s far more damaging than any lawsuit could ever be.

Something similar was done as a hoax by Spy Magazine in 1993.

Now it's 2015, and PPP proves that life copies satire!

"Posing as the host of a New York radio talk show, Spy's staff called about 20 first-term House members and, after a series of innocuous questions, asked, "Do you approve of what we're doing to stop what's going on in Freedonia?" or "Do you approve of what we're doing to stop ethnic cleansing in Freedonia?"

How many people KNEW that this city was fictitious?

Most of the time when the MSM mentions a city in Syria, Iraq and Iran...it's the first time I've heard of the city in my life!

If you asked the average person on the street if Aleppo was a real city, I bet most would say "No."

That broad seems to know a little more about ISIS inside activity than I am comfortable with.

How does she know this?

He can tell the truth about Hillary Clinton without being ignored by the mainstream media.
And, unlike any of the other candidates, after a few days of bashing he'll actually be taken seriously

Good question. Is someone showing Hillary classified material which she has no legal access to?

She has created a real problem with these statements regarding these ISIS recruitment videos. Big league problems.

For decades in America, Trump has meant business, and now those around the world who oppose America sees that not only Trump, but his supporters mean business. This study shows that Trump will have the public’s support to bomb any place that even sounds like it would be in the Middle East and sounds like it might actually exist.
