How does one know what the voting public thinks?
Once upon a time, long, long ago, public opinion polls may have reflected, however faintly, some generalization of public opinion. For a multitude of reasons, that is no longer true. To demonstrate that point, compare the August 29 Rasmussen poll showing President Trump’s approval rating of 47 percent with the Quinnipiac reported approval rating of 38 percent. Even more irrational are the Quinnipiac poll result that whatever is left of Joe Biden would beat Trump 54 percent to 38 percent in a general election and the Economist poll number that asserts that 55 percent of the public thinks the country is headed in the wrong direction. It is a near certainty that none of those numbers reflects reality.
So, discarding the meaningless political polls, I went to the most accurate opinion poll I am aware of for my pre-quadrennial presidential forecast: the Washington County (Pa.) Agricultural Fair.

The GOP better start thinking about the deficit and reduce spending now. It will be hard to do with the dems controlling Congress, but something needs to be done. Trump and team need to fight harder than the Left who continue to work against him to make him fail.
ReplyDeleteI truly hope so - that's where my vote will go!
ReplyDeleteYou never see anybody in a Hillary t-shirt.
ReplyDeleteNot anyone considered reasonable by the "general public" anyway
DeletePresident Trump has all types of exciting people who come and support him
ReplyDeleteyou never see enthusiasm at any Democrat function
Spot on! Trump2020!!
DeleteHe won over 2600 counties to Clinton 480 something. Trump has only gotten stronger. He is NOT going anywhere...
ReplyDeleteWhen will Trump become a Republican and stand for Republican values and fiscal responsibility ?
ReplyDeletePuff puff pass...
DeleteHaven't heard about him handing out cargo planes of tax payer cash to terrorists, so that sounds like fiscal responsiblity to me! He hasn't sold plutonium to a country that every Democrat thinks rigged our election, but seem to be fine with the idea of them controlling our nuclear material. That sounds fiscally responsible to me. I can go on, like Fast and Furious, guns provided to cartels, etc. You get the idea.
DeleteTrump is doing just fine 8:15
DeleteHe's lost all 4 votes in our family. We are seniors. And he's done nothing to help us.
ReplyDeleteWe are definitely worse off now than 4 years ago.
Will be voting Democrat this go round..
Lol cause voting Democrat will help 😂🤣😂
DeleteMaybe if you had some savings you would be able to see what Trump has done. 🙄
Not too smart a move there 2:48
DeleteI'm talking about Trump not anyone else . My mom used to say that 2 wrongs don't make one right . Look in the windshield instead of the rear view mirror fool
ReplyDeleteTrump will never win CA, NY, NJ, VT-ME, IL, CO. Those states will go democrat if Satan had a (D) next to his name.
ReplyDeleteWith that sort of head start, they only need a couple of more states. Very hard for Trump to win.
10:05 That’s what they said in 2016😉
