President Trump Tweets Misrepresented Approval Numbers from FoxPresident Trump’s overall unfavorable rating has remained steady at 55 percent since he announced his candidacy in 2015. On the 10 April 2019 episode of Lou Dobbs Tonight, which is aired by the Fox Business Network (FBN), host Lou Dobbs offered some approval numbers regarding President Donald Trump’s performance gleaned from a recent poll. President Trump then tweeted those numbers out himself the following morning, under the heading “Great news!” and the hashtag #MAGA:  However, Dobbs’ graphic had misrepresented President Trump’s overall approval rating, as determined by a Georgetown Institute of Politics and Public Service “Battleground Poll.” That national bipartisan survey did measure 58 percent of voters as approving of the Trump’s handling of the U.S. economy, but the 55 percent “OVERALL” figure touted as demonstrating “soaring approval” in the FBN graphic actually reflected the president’s unfavorable rating among voters. The actual overall approval figure from the cited poll was only 43 percent: Complete article here: President Trump Tweets Misrepresented Approval Numbers from Fox

Fox news took that posting down and posted a clarification that they'd made a mistake.
Trump still has it on his twitter. Why bother taking it down, it looks nice, it will give his minions something to crow about, and fuck the truth.

Trump has approval around here. There are so many jobs in town, that they have problems finding applicants. Everyone has medical insurance with their job , Obama care is not needed around here where people work, and don't spend there lives sucking the government teat. America is great 👍 I see it every time I'm out, in the smi!ing faces of a happy red state populace. I watch the news from New York city at times. Sounds like the world is ending if you only watched that, and didn't pay attention to reality. I'm glad I don't live there. God bless (most of) the USA ! |
