    ICE viewed more favorably than Omar: Poll

    A recent Economist/YouGov online survey found that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is more popular than “The Squad,” the nickname given to four progressive minority women in Congress that have frequently sparred with President Trump.

    The poll taken July 14-16 revealed 42 percent of respondents said they have either a “very favorable” or “somewhat favorable” opinion of ICE, while the positive responses for Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts weren’t as high.

    Out of the respondents who had either a “very favorable” or “somewhat favorable” view of “The Squad,” Ms. Ocasio-Cortez fared best, coming in at 33 percent.

    Twenty-five percent of respondents had a positive view of Rep. Omar, 24 percent for Ms. Tlaib and 22 percent for Ms. Pressley.

    This is cherry picking. ICE has a higher unfavorable number than all of them.

    On a personal note, AOC has a 33% favorable vs 41 unfavorable. Pelosi is 36/48. McConnell is 23/49. Kevin McCarthy (no one even knows who the fuck he is) has 21/31. And Schumer is 30/44. This narrative of how she’s so unpopular is ridiculous in context.

    But since this poll means something let’s take a looksie.

    Green New Deal-
    34% support
    31% oppose

    And republicans, the most likely to oppose it, have the lowest “not sure” number. That’s a solid win.

    Abolish ICE-
    33% support
    43% oppose

    A nice little win for you guys, unfortunately, republicans again have the lowest not sure numbers. That number is getting very close. Independents have a huge not sure number (35%) and are more likely to support.

    Medicare For All- (uh oh)
    52% support
    33% oppose

    Here democrats have the lowest not sure number, it is close though (9% vs 12%). Independents have a big not sure number, 20%, and they are likely to support it.

    Family separation-
    32% approve
    55% disapprove

    This has a similar make up as the M4A. Dems lowest but close, independents with a big number but more likely to disapprove.

    It’s beginning to look a lot like socialism...eeeeeeeeeeereeeeeeeverywhere you go.


    Holy fucking shit you are a loser. Socialism is for losers who cannot compete, 99% of which are just lazy.

    Does that describe you, APAG?

    Intellectuals would call this an ad hominem.

    You don't need to be an intellectual to see the only thing that matters to the left these days is being a victim.

    This is a response to my post about a poll how exactly?

    “This poll you’re using to bash the congresswomen also shows support for M4A, GND and getting rid of family separation”

    “You’re such a victim”

    Wtf are you on about.
