    And who they ask

    Poll heavily in deep blue districts where bush or kasich may have done well in the primaries

    Republicans are not monolithic

    and a clever lib pollster knows where to find the responses he is looking for

    Yes, but I think Axios got this one right.

    "Seventy-two percent of Americans believe "traditional major news sources report news they know to be fake, false, or purposely misleading," according to a new poll from Axios and SurveyMonkey released on Thursday.

    The poll of nearly 4,000 adults shows that 92 percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents "say that traditional news outlets knowingly report false or misleading stories at least sometimes," a finding in line with other recent polls conducted by Pew Research and Gallup."
    THE HILL, Poll: 72 percent say traditional outlets 'report news they know to be fake, false, or purposely misleading', BY JOE CONCHA - 06/27/18.

    The MSM just makes stuff up.

    you do realize dems are fine with him updating existing fence, already budgeted for him, last year Trump still had over a billion of his budget unspent for border security, why did he not do this

    Who claimed we were, funny you didn't make that claim about the thread poll, why? Because it shows Trump in a positive light. Hypocrisy to the max.

    Agreed on that. Another nail in the coffin yesterday with the Buzzfeed fiasco spread by the MSM with no fact checking.

    What is hilarious is watching the left attempt to explain why existing walls and upgrades to them are Okay but new construction is immoral. Also trying to explain why a wall on our southern border would not work when walls work everywhere else in the world including their own residences.

    democrats support walls in places walls are needed, if trump has some specific places he would like some wall, we can discuss, we will not support a wall of China across the entire border though

    Yep, and the Demos have stated they will reject the deal.


    It looks like the Dems will reject the deal.

    Democrats signaled they’ll reject an offer expected from President Donald Trump to extend protections for so-called Dreamers for three years in exchange for $5.7 billion in funds for border security as a way to reopen the federal government.

    As well as protections for Dreamers, young people brought to the U.S. illegally as children, Trump is also expected to propose extending the visas for Temporary Protection Status holders, though it’s unclear for how long, said a person familiar with Trump’s plan.

    The concessions, to be outlined in a speech at 4 p.m. on Saturday, are aimed at getting Democrats back to the negotiating table in a bid to end a partial government shutdown now into its fifth week.....snip~


    Now all he needs to do.....is make the Left suffer.

    Trump already stated.....wherever Border Officials say they need them. Not your Demos. Not Repubs. Not him. Border Officials.

    Oh and if your Demos supported walls and fences. Then why did they not appropriate the funds when they had control of Congress under BO the Peep. Why wouldn't they appropriate money to even repair fences and walls?

    Sure it will, there is nothing wrong with a wall. Just a lot wrong with how they are trying to use Dems to get it. They had 2 years to do it themselves and his own people didnt pay for it, thus, make the dems do it... Corrupt...

    Plus his plan, take away as much as possible, then offer to give it back for other ventures is showing what a schist-er he is, and it isnt for our good, just for his. We didn't need a wall for 50 years, now all of a sudden it is a national emergency. Just shows how OBTUSE he really is, him and his followers.

    You seem to forget the smaller margin the Repulican's had then and the #NeverTrumpers like Flake.

    You need to double your workforce over the next week to get out more posts, more anti Pelosi (nasty Nancy) sales pitch, then you can gain a couple more %.. .Maybe you can reach 35% at some later date...
    You cant have a guy say "it is my fault, I will take the blame, then blame everyone else" Oh wait, yes you can if your entire life is based on lying !

    The plan for the $5.7B wall is available to any of the D’s who cares to review it. Who supports a wall across the entire border.

    Fake Journalists who concoct Fake News do not need facts or fact checkers. That's why the NYT fired most of its copy editors.
    Copy editors had become nonessential employees.

    and it will continue to rise because Hispanics want what all Americans want-a safe and prosperous country with rule of law.

    And also amongst hispanics who saw dems toss Dreamers under the bus.

    Dems refused to even meet with border officials.

    Meanwhile, Trump was ON THE BORDER with them.

    Where have you been?

    Trump ran and was elected on a platform of building the wall and securing our borders.

    The only thing thats sudden here is dems figuring out why its so important.

    Independents and moderates are learning about the issue, and seeing Trump attempting to do something in a bipartisan manner.

    All dems do is obstruct and talk about impeachment.

    The MSM has been trying to metaphorically cut Trump's throat since June of 2015.

    imo he realized early on that he was created to go out and get it, the sky's the limit, and that he has little to lose in a gang fight.
