Because the real important point here is his chance of political success and not the fact that the President of our country is an emotionally and factually challenged boob.

Irrelevant. You didn't vote for Trump either.

[Spurminator]

No, I don't vote for faggots.

:lol I didn't suggest you'd VOTE for me, I'm just assuming you'd bandwagon for another winner while playing the pussy "I didn't vote for him but LOL at all of you whining about him" card.

Public polls believe trump more honest then media

Public polls believe trump more honest then media

And yet we're supposed to allow Media to conduct their business using "sources." It's a fucking joke. No way. Do your work and produce tangible results just like any other industry is required to do, a lot by law and statute. Not Media though. Any asshole can open a newspaper, magazine, or Internet site and start a newsin'.

I dont think he is all whacked out on the shit, tbh, its not meth. Small doses of pure grade seems likely, and would explain his sometimes random outbursts, constant sniffle, red eye, etc.

Just callin it like i see it.

Their methodology is garbage.

lol from my own original source

"Cohn discovered (http://www.newrepublic.com/article/114682/ppp-polling-methodology-opaque-flawed)that in 2012, the racial composition of PPP’s polls was correlated in an unusual way with President Obama’s performance among white voters in their surveys. If Obama was performing especially poorly among whites in one PPP poll, it tended to have a higher share of nonwhite voters, which boosted Obama’s result. And if Obama was doing relatively well among whites, PPP projected less nonwhite turnout, keeping his lead in check. As a result, PPP’s polls tended to show an unusually steady race between Obama and Mitt Romney."

Next time you want to call something fake news don't use a PPP poll to back your claim


:lol PPP poll

https://newrepublic.com/article/114682/ppp-polling-methodology-opaque-flawed


"After examining PPP’s polls from 2012 and conducting a lengthy exchange with PPP’s director, I've found that PPP withheld controversial elements of its methodology, to the extent it even has one, and treated its data inconsistently. The racial composition of PPP’s surveys was informed by whether respondents voted for Obama or John McCain in 2008, even though it wasn’t stated in its methodology. PPP then deleted the question from detailed releases to avoid criticism. Throughout its seemingly successful run, PPP used amateurish weighting techniques that distorted its samples—embracing a unique, ad hoc philosophy that, time and time again, seemed to save PPP from producing outlying results. The end result is unscientific and unsettling."


"It’s troubling enough that PPP was using an undisclosed, poorly executed version of a controversial method based off of a deleted question to project the racial composition of the electorate. What’s even stranger is that PPP didn’t use it consistently."

"Reproducibility is at the heart of the scientific method: If I conduct an experiment and produce a certain result, and someone can’t do the same experiment and get the same outcome, there should be serious doubts about my finding. Incredibly, PPP’s methodology is so inconsistent that it’s not even clear it could replicate its own results with the same raw data. That should raise red flags."

"And it’s also possible that PPP would still be a decent pollster if it used a more defensible approach. But PPP’s opacity and flexibility goes too far. In employing amateurish weighting techniques, withholding controversial methodological details, or deleting questions to avoid scrutiny, the firm does not inspire trust. We need pollsters taking representative samples with a rigorous and dependable methodology. Unfortunately, that’s not PPP."
