    Ahahahaha.

    Too funny.

    My posts are from your PR sources, contradicting themselves.

    It's hilarious how they think they're duping people and who falls for it.

    It used to be that the politicians worked hard to try and get PR, some message they want to get out pushed by the media through news stories/magazine covers, etc. It's a whole different game when it's the media driving the PR - that, in part, makes it a coup. Collusion between the media and "unnamed sources" within government further makes it a coup.

    Again, with Obama, I was all about the economics and losses of Liberties, not the man. You're all about the man, regardless of the economics and losses of Liberties.

    I figure the Republic survived all the presidents, it'll survive Trump too. My hair isn't on fire, like certain people.

    Agreed, he's succeeding.

    Much to the coup's (faux) horror.

    Your sample size of 1 is insignificant and irrelevant.

    More scientific sample sizes show he's just about as popular now as he was when elected (within about +/- 2%). DULY elected.

    In fact, at this point in his presidency, he's more popular than Obama was in his, according to some of the polls.

    That's a Trump-level lie right there. Congratulations, you've been defending him so much you are actually becoming Donald Trump.

    What's all this 'coup' shit? No one is suggesting doing anything that isn't explicitly provided for in the US Constitution.

    I don't. Only when she's in the news. She's been granted so many get out of jail free cards she should take advantage of them and stay off everyone's radars.

    There's a new sheriff in town, though.

    Also, looks like Obama himself might be in a wee bit of trouble. You know, for lying about not knowing about Clinton's illegal server while sending her emails on it, to her private email address. That's the tip of that iceberg.

    3 more years of swamp draining before reelection. Reelection, thanks to you. Yep. Keep it up and you'll continue to piss off (motivate) the people who voted him in last time.

    Malicious prosecution isn't provided in the constitution. Admittedly malicious.

    Like I said, those who abuse the system really ought to at least pay the costs, if not spending some jail time.

    What malicious prosecution? Admitted by whom, you?

    And they will... we've already got 3 or 4 guilty pleas, more on the way.

    You don't know we actually have a record of your posts here? You post about her anytime you need to deflect criticism of Trump.

    BTW, judging from the latest leaks about what Mueller is asking people, he's close to done looking at every claim of the conspiracy theory.

    Will the mass delusion be over when he reports he found nothing?

    Actually Denny, his popularity is still lower than when he was first elected and it ranges from 35% to 40% (the Rasmussen poll has been a joke from the beginning). Hiw many lies, how many personal attacks, how many resignations, how many firings and how many personal attacks on those who don;t side with Trump are you willing to accept? This whitehouse is a mess and that should concern you.

    I've gotten past the hair on fire responses to every little thing Trump does. I'm focused more on what he actually does.

    Oddly, his immigration policies are the only real danger I've seen, but his views aren't out of the main stream. You can see on this site how many posters agree with him about immigrants taking jobs and using safety net resources. What's odd is that people choose to focus on trivialities and ignore actual policy issues. That is, if people were making threads about how his immigration policies are hurting real people, people who've been here and contributed for decades, there might actually be some agreement.

    Average of polls.

    * Down 3.1 as of this post. It was over 42 just a few days ago. It's a good measure of 24/7 negative press by CNN and MSNBC.
    * It's higher than it's been for most of 2017.

    Not sure about the 35% figure you cite.

    That said, I'm not sure your discounting of Rasmussen is wise.

    http://dailycaller.com/2016/11/19/these-pollsters-got-the-election-right-according-to-rcp/

    The most accurate poll that surveyed likely voters was the Investor’s Business Daily poll, a poll that has one of the finest records for calling races in recent political history. It was one of the only polls that called the race for Trump in the final days of the election, giving him 45 percent of the vote compared to Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

    The second most accurate poll according to the report was the national Rasmussen poll of likely voters. Although the end result showed that Clinton would win the race, the overall numbers are very close to the results, as long as you just count the popular vote. Clinton led Trump by 2 percentage points in the poll, nearly the same number as she led Trump in the overall popular vote.

    Interesting. So in your mind an unemployed guy, Comey, is a prosecutor?

    That explains the cardboard signs on the streetcorners downtown: "Need money to prosecute. God bless".

    Thanks!
