As we’ve previously discussed, national polls were extremely accurate in 2016. If you want to pretend they’re all wrong and Trump’s plan is secretly popular knock yourself out.

Look it’s fine, the guy in the editorial you quoted is trying to bullshit you and on some level you know it. If being duped comforts you then by all means keep reading it.


No, they were inaccurate as well as the left-peddling pundits. Show me the polls suggesting Trump was going to win and the pundits suggesting that pre-election. I've regularly updated my sig with the opposite. I'm on to something like my 10th video of the left being wrong now.

As previously told to you, the national polls predicted the result within 1.1 points. That is highly accurate. If you want to believe Trump’s tax plan polls at 31% instead of 30% go right ahead! Hahaha.

What a weird hobby to have.

not for a professed troll. thats what he is and proud of it, just like trumproast (courtesy of puffin)

Remember when he spent some time lying about how he was once a Clinton supporter?

I don’t care if someone wants to troll people here, it can be entertaining. I wish we had someone trolling here who was a little smarter though.

I was never really a Clinton supporter. I was anti Trump and anti Clinton pre-election. Trump has won me over since taking office, though. For partisan leftists and establishment GOP'ers, his America-first policies are hard to digest. He's accomplished much and has seven more years ahead of him. I'm not 100% behind everything he does, but I'm confident he is a lot better than how feckless Clinton would have turned out.

good water boy, loyal water boy, I am so sure you were anti-drumpf. Just remember, you're supporting an alleged child molester by proxy, put that in your christmas stocking.

oh, a fox news opinion piece, how quaint.
I find the part about installing stooges laughable seeing that Republicans stalled Obama preventing him from filling many open positions until they controlled everything. Partisanship at its finest.:eek: As for Taj maybe Reynolds can open up a new aluminum foil plant to keep he and his friends supplied in the new year.:D

Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, The Young Turks, John Oliver, Breitbart, etc. They all have an agenda. That doesn't mean that they never make solid points in any of their stories.

The very first thing they claim can be easily fact checked and it that's not true then why would believe the rest of it?

So fact check it for us and tell us, is this tax cut the biggest in the last 30 years?

I still use them. Are you one of those folks that pulls out a card for a $2.75 purchase?

why not? i don't have to carry around cash and change; i pay the exact amount every time; i get a permanent record of all purchases made; and i can readily track my spending distribution. and most cards these days offer some sort of cash back reward (getting 1% back is better than 0).

Why do you think the size of the purchase is relevant?
It is a purchase. I have a quick and easy form of payment.
It's not paper or coins.
I'm an old guy and some places it really slows things down. I use both depending on where and what it is. How about tips?

Paper AND minted coins. Yes it does. Who still uses those?
I just found it funny as the thing you're mentioning is going extinct.
It is still the basis of the numbers written on your bank account, and if you go withdraw it, it is what you take home. Extinct? Not for me, if it is for you, send all that old unused trash cash to me. :)

BTW, I always carry some cash and some gold, especially when travelling abroad, and it has gotten me out some some sticky situations that a card would have been useless in. ;)

Rallied the American people around the tax plan? It polls at 30%. Lol. The economy is great again because of job growth? Job growth was slower this year than last year under Obama. Lol.

You’re right, it really does say it all as it highlights the total divorce from reality that people who live in the conservative bubble experience.
Once all the jobs are filled, the growth tends to slow, duh. It had to grow under the last lame duck year of Obamanation because he had reduced the number of jobs filled by full time employees so most folks had to take on 2 or 3 of the part time jobs employers moved to to limit the hours so they didn't have to provide healthcare packages to them. So the effect was one full time job cut and 2 or 3 part times ones created, looks good on paper, but not for the workers.

Let me guess though, now it’s great. ;)

By the way, the full time/part time thing is yet another right wing myth. Your media is lying to you. Full time employment is down less than 1% from the height of the bubble.

There's nothing you won't say, no lie you won't spew and no ass you won't kiss to push your little Dem talking points.

For the record, this will never be forgotten or not mentioned, ever again. Just like you willing to kill children crossing our borders illegally. You're reprehensible and portray yourself as an American, and as a real American, one who values and respects immigrants from all countries and all religious backgrounds, you disgust me with your fascist ideologies wrapped up in a flag and falsely portrayed as patriotic. Go ahead, support a pedophile, support a fascist, I'll be right there to call you on your bullshit along with millions of other truly patriotic citizens.
Happy holidays, bitch.

I am not quoting any media, it's my neighbors and family that show the results I speak of. Your media is out of touch with reality.
