Only 20%? Not believable.

Abso-freaking-lutely!
I don’t believe it for a minute. Let’s all the internals including exactly what the questions were, could you pick only one, and all the demographics.
I was on Zogby’s email polling list for at least 2 years. Way more than 10 years ago. Boy, was that an eye-opener. Total bulls*** questions that were nothing but funnels designed for specific outcomes.

Funny how once Trump turns Alinsky tactics back on the Left and starts WINNING, civility suddenly rockets to the top of the list of “concerns”.
To: little jeremiah
Media’s favorite “expert” Larry Sabato says you need to add 10 to any poll on Trump’s side dealing with Trump’s numbers.

Wonder where reparations for slavery or slavery or min wage in general would be on the list? Probably at the top, but taken to the limit taxes are subjugation and slavery to the state and they don't seem to care... so it is obvious slavery is not or has never been their issue, as it is who shall be their master is their number one concern, and its not trump because he stands for freedom.

Taxes, bottom of the list. Might be because 10% of the Population pays 70% of the Taxes.
Being a Minority, they don’t Poll well.
People never hear this just like they never hear that 5% of the Population (young Black Males) are responsible for 50% of the Crime committed in this Country.
The Truth is too inconvenient.

I tend to completely dismiss polls during this cold civil war.

Government being the “top problem” and high taxes are inter-twinned.
A shame most people can’t figure this out.

A good sized and growing segment of the population doesn’t answer calls from anyone not on their contact list. Nor do they talk to people who come to their door.
There are no accurate polls, and none are going to appear any time soon.

Outrageous taxes go along with bad government and bad government mandated healthcare. They aren’t separable.

When roughly half the people arent paying taxes anyway, is it any surprise that tax concern is at the bottom of some pollster’s list?
To: x1stcav
Only 3% said environment/pollution. Take that Hollywood and Al Gore!

Health care may be very expensive and a problem . . . but American people cause the problem for themselves for a great great many. Far too many abuse their bodies with food especially.

Interesting that the main democrat talking points are crowded at the bottom. Nobody cares about guns, environment, income disparity between rich and poor, etc.
The only issue the rats have is anti-Trump, which probably mostly accounts for the vague number one issue.

And if I do accidentally talk to someon I lie through my teeth......about everything. Even the color of my skin. Lol
