NBC/WSJ Poll: In ‘Trump Counties,’ More Say U.S. Is Worse Off Than Better Off
NBC "News" ^ | November 7, 2017 | by CARRIE DANN

WASHINGTON — One year after Donald Trump’s shocking election upset, many Americans who live in the key counties that propelled him to victory remain unconvinced that the country is better off now that he’s in the White House, a new poll from NBC News and The Wall Street Journal shows.

The poll, which sampled residents of 438 counties that either flipped from voting Democratic in the 2012 presidential election to Republican in 2016, or saw a significant surge for Trump last year, found that a third — 32 percent — believe the country is better off now than it was before Trump became president.

I don’t call BS on this.

I call TOTAL BS. What does it take to get a representative sampling of 438 counties? If you poll 500 people in 438 counties, that’s 219,000 calls with a response. Total calls would have to be close to 400,000. Logistics alone tells me that this is unlikely outside of a presidential campaign.

As for the results of the poll, I also call BS. The economy is roaring right now. The only people with their panties in a wad over Trump are the hard core left that doesn’t have real jobs and never will. No way a significant number of Americans say they are not better off.

This is just more communist lies.
