Polls don't matter

    From your link:

    Fifty-one percent of so-called “Never Hillary” independent voters disapprove ouf Trump, with 47 percent approving, according to an Axios/Survey Monkey poll released Friday. The online poll drew its results from 52,211 respondents and had a margin-of-error of 1.5 percentage points.

    The disapproval for Trump among the group, even if narrow, could be a worrying sign for the president and his party looking ahead to the 2018 midterms. Much, though, will depend on how many of those who disapprove of Trump show up to cast a vote for a Democrat in November.

    In the 2016 presidential election, 33 percent of the “Never Hillary” group selected Trump, compared to 23 percent who voted for an independent candidate, with 37 percent opting to stay home.


    33% of the “Never Hillary” voters voted for Trump. Now those same voters give him an approval rating of 47%. Not seeing how this helps the Democrats.

    Of those 33% that did vote for Trump. 50% are against Trump. That's a large number of Trump supporters that are not happy with his presidency in a slim vote.

    Does that make it more clear?

    Of the 67% that didn’t vote for Trump, 47% now approve of Trump.

    By all means show where it says the 47% approval rating (of “Never Hillary” voters) only applies to the 33% who voted for him. I’ll wait.

    How about you both shut the fuck up. You’re using a single poll in July to make all kinds of conclusions about upcoming elections. Regardless of your side, this is stupid.

    Agreed. Polls right now are dumb. Even the generic one I posted. I just like to trigger people like USM who can't believe Trump or Republicans could ever lose.

    Disagreeing with you is being triggered? You have an undeserved sense of superiority. You posted something that has conflicting data; that’s the entirety of my point.

    There’s a long way to go before the midterms; July polls mean nothing.
