Polling Problems
A new Wall Street Journal Poll is out, and it is bad news for democrats. The Poll was conducted from July 16 -20. It is a new-new low for democrats. The lowest in 35 years. The dems are suffering from multiple problems. First, they are leaderless and second, they have backed insane policies like open borders, transgender operations for children and aiding illegal immigrants.
There are four damning stats for democrats from this Poll:
"A mere 8% of voters view the Democrats “very favorably,” compared with 19% who show that level of enthusiasm for the GOP.
On the whole, voters disapprove of the president’s handling of the economy, inflation, tariffs and foreign policy. And yet in each case, the new Journal poll found, voters nonetheless say they trust Republicans rather than Democrats to handle those same issues in Congress.
Now, more voters identify as Republicans than as Democrats, a significant change in the structure of the electorate—and a rarity in politics. Republicans last year built their first durable lead in more than three decades in party identification, and they have maintained that lead today. In the new Journal survey, more voters identify as Republicans than as Democrats by 1 percentage point, and the GOP led by 4 points in the April poll.
Republicans have built a financial advantage at this early stage of the cycle. Campaign-finance reports out this week show that the Republican National Committee ended the first half of the year with more than $80 million on hand, compared with $15 million held by the Democrats’ national campaign arm. The Democratic committee raised roughly 20% less than it did in the first six months of 2021, a comparable period in the last midterm cycle, and has in the bank a quarter of what it did four years ago."
Democrats Get Lowest Rating From Voters in 35 Years, WSJ Poll Finds
Every time the dems call the President a Fascist, the lower they seem to go in polling. As the democrat party becomes more extreme the more they find themselves distanced from the American people. Right now, they are in a doom cycle. Can they change it all by next year?

Trump is moving to taking action on Russia. When asked by reporters in Scotland about the prospect of a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine, Trump repeated that he is "disappointed" with Putin, complaining that he thought he had the matter "settled numerous times" before his Russian counterpart then "starts launching rockets into some city, like Kyiv, and kills a lot of people." "I'm going to reduce that 50 days we gave him to a lesser number because I think I already know the answer what's going to happen," Trump said on Monday.
Yesterday President Donald Trump contradicted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a prominent way, over Netanyahu’s comment that there is “no starvation in Gaza.” Speaking in Scotland, Trump said that the U.S. would set up food centers in Gaza as “we have to get the kids fed." Trump said he had seen images of Palestinians on TV and that “those children look very hungry.” He later added that the scenes were “real starvation” and that “you can’t fake that.”
Trump announced a U.S.-Vietnam trade deal, in which the nation would be subject to a tariff rate of 20%.

Good morning and welcome to the news.

The gunman responsible for the killings of four people in Midtown Manhattan had a long history of mental illness. The question that I pose specifically to democrats is why are we not bringing back Mental institutions?
polling problems explained:
Hi I’m a liberal who believes Jews shouldn’t have a country or be allowed to defend themselves against terrorism. Let me tell you why an attractive woman advertising denim is literally a nazi
This is what they focus on.
The stupidity on that is just mind boggling. But, that's the American left.
Yes, we see it every day. Republicans want to run on the accomplishments of the past 6 months, while democrats want to talk about Epstein.
The midterms aren't that far away.
That's outstanding.
I know all I'm going to see are excuses, but if the Democrats are so obsessed with "Epstein" then why didn't they release everything when they were "running things"?
That question continues to go unanswered.
We already know the truth here. The only reason why Democrats are so vocal about releasing the files is because they can use it to beat on Trump.
They have a "messaging problem" so this might solve it for them. /s
The simple truth is that if there was hard evidence of criminal actions in the files then someone would have already been brought up on charges. Most likely there are names in the records along with some inuendo about deeds but no evidence to back it up. Because of the nature of Epstein's crimes, any name would be tarred with the same brush regardless of actions by said name. And I'm confident that politicians being politicians, they will attempt to hide their own while shouting out loud about those from the 'other' side. If the House succeeds in subpoenaing the records, we will hear a constant drip of names and inuendo.
With all of that said, I'm actually in favor of releasing all the records. There will be a lot of unverified statements in them, but I'm rather tired of the forever politicians and this may be a quick way to get rid of a bunch of them.
He was a bit underrated, but then again, they expected so much from him.

Oh man, lost another good one. Bummer.
Ryne was a great ball player and a good man.
Ryno was really one of the "old school" players. Pre-roids, didn't grandstand and played the game hard. Not a a Cubs fan but always respected him.
I had a friend who was friends with a very high profile sports radio host in Chicago at that time , who had a connection to insider dope on the Cubs clubhouse. According to the "rumors" , Sandberg's wife was cheating on him with a good friend. After that was resolved and they divorced he came back to the Cubs and resumed his career.
Unfortunately, not really a rarity in MLB.
If you recall in the 1970's cable tv began, and we were getting the Cubs, Yankees and Braves local stations up in Boston. We had it even into the 80s. I was betting on Baseball back then. There were many Cubs games I enjoyed, but there is one (an unusual one) that is forever tied to Sandberg. I can only imagine how Cubs fans felt about it:
End of an era:

It kind of ended during the Biden presidency.
Fact checking started out as a good idea and over the last ten years devolved into a parody of itself.
The Gig is up. They only wanted to fact-check one person.
The online fact-check sites are all leftwing and devoted to mashing Conservative talking points.
It would help the right wings fact checking outcomes if they would stop habitually lying and believing in endless conspiracy theories.
I couldn't get you to believe the facts backed by Snopes, so I wouldn't point fingers if I were you.
So you want "fact checking" like WaPo, CNN, and MSNBC?
"Russiagate" is not a conspiracy theory.
In reality, it's a very big problem for the Dems and their chances in the midterms
is nonsense. Trumps 2016 campaign was very justifiably investigated.
And even that partisan shit show found nothing. I get it, having it a partisan investigation helped cover Obama's involvement in the whole fraud.
"Russiagate" was considered a conspiracy theory by the left. But like most of what the left claimed were conspiracy theories, it became factual.
Glass houses. Stones.
Mirror mirror
Trump won a rigged election with Elon's help.
Was there anyone so drunk last night as to have Rachel Maddow on?
She kept blathering about Roy Cooper entering the US Senate race in North Carolina. He was the former governor and held many statewide positions in the state.
Is he really a slam dunk?
Evidently, you.
In my case it was channel surfing. I had to see what Butch Cronkite was up to.
That's hilarious
If taken in a lighthearted way. If anyone is offended, I apologize.
[✘]
Cooper is a shit bag. He's the reason parts of NC are "Sanctuary Shitholes".
A man of the left, but still popular in NC.
Not outside of Wake Country (a sanctuary shithole BTW)
Then I don't know how he got to be governor, but I hope you are right.
I was out of the country on "business" during the campaign, so I missed a lot in that aspect.
Tillis left the empty seat, probably knowing it would be a contested seat. I guess the moral to the story is that Trump shouldn't threaten his own.
Do you know who Republicans might have to make it a contest?
Honestly I don't know. There is so much nonsense thrown around here that it was the J6 Committee.
They better find somebody.
Michael Whatley, Chairman of the RNC has a great chance and is endorsed by Trump. Cooper is a loser.
I see now, Whatley has been a fundraiser for the most part. This would be his first real campaign.
North Carolina might just be the only Senate race rated as a tossup. It's essential that Cooper is defeated.
Yes, it is. Had we, citizens of North Carolina, not had to put up with the influx of "northern influence" on our population, he may have never been elected. It's all about the "D". Hell, yesterday, the General Assembly (Senate has GOP majority) and some dems jumped on board with conservatives in the House to make it happen.
That is impressive. I take it the democrats in NC are far more moderate than what we see nation wide.
No, they use common sense in spite of the "D".
Exactly what Andy Griffith loved about small town America.
2016 was Trumps first real campaign. Just saying ….
I won't underestimate him.
NYC mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdami addresses Midtown mass shooting from Uganda compound https:// trib.al/mse0nG8
this headline also explains democrats problems.
link is unusable
His family was very prominent in Uganda. One of the elite 1% before being kicked out. Just like when they lived in South Africa.
The same resume for some Socialists and Marxists. The thing they all seem to have in common is the university where they all fell in love with the idea of being the planners of a society.
As for the democrats they are no longer the larger party:
Democratic coalition has a crack that is getting bigger
Still there.
Socialist NYC mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani celebrated his recent nuptials with a lavish, three-day affair at his family’s ritzy, secluded Ugandan compound — complete with masked security guards and a cellphone jamming system, The Post has learned.
The gates of the bustling, private compound, which sits in the wealthy Buziga Hill area outside the capital city of Kampala, were heavily guarded by military-style, masked men this week, with guests streaming in and partying until midnight, according to sources in the town who wished to remain anonymous for security reasons.
He's the perfect exemplar of the socialist.
Let us keep reminding our readers of where the democrat party stands.
Democrats are less popular than anal warts, and like anal warts they both grow on assholes.
LMAO. Democrats have a lower approval rate than AIRPLANE FOOD!!!!!!
