"SNIP............

A new poll from the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs (AP-NORC) reveals that voters believe Vice President Kamala Harris has more brains and brawn than GOP nominee Donald Trump. According to the numbers, voters chose Harris 59 percent over Trump’s 57 percent when it came to which candidate they felt was tough enough to be president. As for which candidate would change the country for the better, Harris beat Trump again 55 percent compared to 46 percent. Voters also said Harris was more likely to fight for them than Trump, scoring 54 percent and 43 percent respectively. The Associated Press reported that the poll was conducted prior to the second apparent assassination attempt on Trump’s life at his golf course in Florida on Sunday. Fresh off of her dominate debate performance, Harris jumped to a six-point lead over Trump according to numbers from a Morning Consult poll.

[chicoescuela]

5. You're on fire tonight

[msongs]

3. just about anybody is tougher. let him blather til he's done than do what u want nt

[thenelm1]

43. Geez, a wet blanket is tougher than himself.

Ever notice that he does his insulting from afar? Even with his lackeys he never appears to challenge them to their faces. At least not that I recall ever seeing.

[brewens]

4. OH FUCKIN' OUCH! That's gonna leave a mark! LOL I can't wait to throw that in some MAGAt faces! LOL

[GopherGal]

20. KETCHCON Level 2

Heinz 57 splatters coming to the Merde-a-Lardo walls.

[brewens]

21. Have the chef bring up a couple of those food service sized cans from the kitchen. LOL n/t

[Cha]

6. She is. TSF is a Wet Squishy

Fascist noodle.

[Tribetime]

7. I don't understand it's even close.She now leads him

Who do you trust more with you economy?This should be a landslide

[MacKasey]

8. 59 plus 57 equals 116% ??

How does that add up?

[lees1975]

11. I noticed that, too.

59-41 would be 100. 59-37 would be a more likely polling outcome.

[Doodley]

16. It doesn't have to equal 100. Some respondents thought both candidates were tough enough.

[RockRaven]

22. Because the headline misrepresents the question in the poll.

The poll asked: "is person X tough enough to be POTUS?" multiple times, and more people said "Yes" to Harris than TCF.

The poll did not actually ask who was tougher.

[Farmer-Rick]

24. Yeah, the only way you get that outcome

Is if it's 2 separate polls or questions, or people can select more than one answer. I guess there's more than one way to create a poll.

[NellieStarbuck]

38. That's the same math --

That's the same math formula that concluded "illegal aliens" are taking 116 percent of new jobs.

[jcgoldie]

9. anybody who watched that debate has no doubt

It was an asskicking!

[RidinWithHarris]

10. Gosh, Harris seems tougher than a whiny slug who blames everyone else for his problems?

Who's always playing the victim? Who's incredibly thin skinned? Who's hugely susceptible to flattery?

Who'd a thunk it?

[ecstatic]

12. trump is a coward. He turns mute when around people he hates the most

Vice President Harris, on the other hand, isn't afraid to say something directly to someone's face.

[House of Roberts]

13. The only reason we don't know just how weak Trump is with tyrants,

is he doesn't put on the knee pads until he's alone with them.

[liberalla]

25. I don't know why this post isn't rec'ed 500 times! Excellent, astute, accurate observation!

Plus bonus points for being hilariously funny.
Thank you!

[lees1975]

14. New poll shows voters prefer Harris' choice of footwear over Trump.

by a 66-34 margin. Women like her heels better. Younger women particularly prefer the color choice and notice that she always matches. Trump responded by denying the results saying, "I have the best high heels in history. Nobody has high heels like I do."

What else are we going to waste time polling? Hair styles?

[applegrove]

17. You don't think who is stronger is an election issue?

I'd say that is the main reason for Trump's popularity.

[RockRaven]

15. Headline of the article doesn't match the text of the article...

Which is the norm, but still annoying every time.

Setting aside margins of error and all that shit, pretending the 59-57 results show a real difference, the question asked was "tough enough to be POTUS" not "tougher than the other one." So the poll results don't say anything about who is tougher, it says something about more people thinking tough enough. Those things are not the same.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

28. Right. Headline should be "More voters think Harris is tough enough than think tRump is"

Logical thinking seems to be less common among journalists and editors these days.

[TheKentuckian]

18. Chump's toughness rating is way too high for anyone that whines and pouts like he does.

Some people foolishly let bluster pass for grit.

[liberalla]

26. Agree! Way, WAY too high!

[Jmb 4 Harris-Walz]

19. Huh??

According to the numbers, voters chose Harris 59 percent over Trump's 57 percent when it came to which candidate they felt were tough enough to be president.

How are these numbers right??

If Harris is 59% Trump should be at max 41%, right?

[RockRaven]

23. Because the headline is a lie.

They didn't ask who was toughER.

They asked "Is Harris tough enpugh?" and also separately asked "Is TCF tough enough?" and those numbers were the yeses.

Some dumbass headline writer decided to misrepresent the poll, or is massively logically impaired.

[Captain Zero]

27. Trump DEFERS TO DICTATORS.

Harris STANDS UP to Dictators. Obviously voters are noticing that.

[Aristus]

29. Pee-Wee Herman is tougher than Trump.

One can clear that bar by stepping lightly over it.

[BigDemVoter]

34. I spit out my coffee when I saw title of your post. . .

[Aristus]

41. My deepest apologies.

To waste coffee like that…

[kimbutgar]

30. He'll be blowing his red hat over this report !

And I can see him hatch up the intense hate over this! Maybe he’ll give himself an aneurysm!

[LymphocyteLover]

31. No doubt! Did you see her comments on owning a gun? I don't think trump could say this so clearly.

[TlalocW]

32. After crowd size, being seen as tough is the most important thing for Trump

That's going to sting.

[Uncle Joe]

33. Being a serial liar literally means that a person is too afraid of the truth

*rump knows that his whole life's identity would come crashing down if he tried to even letting a sliver of the truth come thru at this stage of the game.

So he lives in a constant state of fear masqueraded by bluster and punching down at those weaker than him.

He's a classic cowardly bully with no emotional courage.

Thanks for the thread applegrove.

[Dem4life1970]

35. Oh this will piss him off!!!!

[LetMyPeopleVote]

36. Water is also wet

TFG is a wimp and coward who hid in bunker At White House

[SWBTATTReg]

37. Gosh, and they aren't kidding. I watched when tRUMP was at a Jewish Council meeting this a.m., and

he was whining about getting only 24% of the vote (should be zero IMHO), and whining about just everything else, and I thought to myself, God, I am so sick and tired of his whining. There's no way in heaven or hell I would ever, ever desire to have this POS on any stage in the future. Such a loser, such a whining POS, such a complainer on just about on everything.

[PedroXimenez]

39. everyone saw him pee his pants

when Harris went over to shake his hand

[Imallin4Joe]

40. Invoking George Carlin with my response to the Orange Turd..

"Up your ass with a broomstick!"

[turbinetree]

42. She will uphold the Constitution and not try to over throw the will of the WE THE PEOPLE...........

like that traitor did.............. ............when he is sitting in jail..................

[King_Klonopin]

44. He is a classic "coat-holder"

He's the guy who starts fights that other people finish for him. All talk; no action.

Look at the people he bullies.
He only punches down against people who are defenseless or disadvantaged.

Now, look at the people whose asses he kisses.
He demurs to the real tough guys, murderers, despots, etc. like a schoolgirl with a crush.

The biggest, whining, cry-baby I have ever seen....

[ificandream]

45. You can bet that'll get Dumbo's dander up ....
