7. There are some very stupid people in that poll

Nov 2023

Past performance is an indicator of future performance.....

Trump hugely increased the budget deficit. He gave away billions in tax cuts and forgiven PPP loans to the filthy-rich. And everyone was out of work during COVID. Our finances were horrible because we couldn't work. Thanks to Trump's stupidity.

There was so much instability in the world with his stupid and deadly COVID response. Millions of Americans died thanks to him pretending COVID was no big deal and pretending masks were of no use. He killed more Americans by ignoring COVID than died on W's watch with 9/11 and Katrina put together.

Trump would start a war in a heartbeat if Putin tells him to. Anyone who doubts that is a cult follower.

That poll has over a 4.4 to 4.8 percentage point margin of error. That is not a good poll.
