After a week that saw President Donald Trump's former campaign chairman convicted on eight counts of fraud and his former lawyer plead guilty to felony campaign finance charges, the president's job approval rating remains virtually unchanged, new polling from NBC News and The Wall Street Journal shows.
But the stability in Trump's approval rating also comes as more than half of voters say he has not been honest and truthful regarding the ongoing investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller. And fewer than three-in-ten voters are convinced that Trump himself is not implicated in the wrongdoing of the six of his associates who have now either been convicted of crimes or have pleaded guilty.Must have been horribly disappointing, considering the poll was done in part by well known Democratic pollster Peter Hart, and considering that they actually created a second poll, when their first poll ended the same day as the news broke on Manafort and Cohen.
Hart added that, for Democrats hoping to craft a midterm election strategy, the week's news thus far "represents a fool's-gold opportunity rather than a silver-bullet solution."
While a plurality of people believe that Trump is guilty of something, it doesn't really seem to move the needle. Most likely those who already don't approve of him are the ones who believe that we are looking for the "big shoe" to drop. About a third still do not "know enough" to have come to a conclusion if Trump is guilty on some larger stage of an actual criminal offense. This could suggest that the Mueller report may be able to move the needle a little bit, but more likely than not it would require either rock solid proof of criminal wrongdoing, or an actual "written acquittal" of the President by Mueller. I suspect that neither situation will emerge. Mueller will fall short of actual evidence of criminal wrongdoing, but will likely provide some "opinion" on something murky like Obstruction.

Now the latest revelation that the source of CNN's big TDS collusion story was none other than Lanny Davis who said he "misspoke".
Rough day for the never Trumpers.
The national media takes another credibility hit.
Up next. Bruce Orre and the Steele dossier.
...under Trump the Republican Party had turned into “one of cowardice,” with members trying to “contort themselves into pretzels” in an attempt to defend the president’s behavior.
“The fact is, you have John McCain who is a war hero. Even my democrats, even the people on the left who want to chastise him for whatever his policy may have been, we’re saying that now is not the time,” he said.
“You have a president this week who did not stand up and show the best of what we can be, and that’s a problem. John McCain deserves all the glory today.”

How many of the parents of the kids who bullied this boy were Trump supporters?
How many of the parents of the kids who bullied this boy were Trump supporters?
not relevant.
what would be relevant is how that child's parents were so fucking "woke" and probably absolutely thrilled to have a gay child, they never sought the counseling the kid could've benefitted from UNTIL he was old enough and rational enough to understand his own sexual preferences.
this was child abuse by the parents - straight up.
hopefully they will not reproduce again.

which was all the alky needed to hear to determine his vote for 0linsky, right?
LOL.
Republican Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma said the fraught relationship between Sen. John McCain and President Donald Trump is what prompted the White House's bungled response to lowering flags in McCain's honor.
"Well, you know, frankly, I think that John McCain is partially to blame for that because he is very outspoken," Inhofe said. "He disagreed with the president in certain areas and wasn't too courteous about it."

precisely.
mcstain started acting like an asshole towards trump the day trump declared his candidacy, and then cranked up his assholery to 11 the day trump took office, capping it off with the demand that trump not be at his funeral..
and then everyone wonders why trump isn't gushing praise and adoration for the guy.
geezus people, this isn't too hard to follow.
if i'm trump the day they plant mcstain i'm playing 36 holes instead of 18 in his honor.
fucking "woke" and probably absolutely thrilled to have a gay child,
My wife's relatives who have a gay child are absolutely proud of him and his accomplishments....what have your spawn done to improve the world???? My guess with an asshole father like you, they are as bigoted and you are proud of that....fucking asshole....
Great source shit for brains...lifezette....
LifeZette has been linked to several controversies surrounding conspiracy theories and the 2016 presidential election.
Two weeks before the 2016 presidential election, the website posted a video about voting machines possibly being compromised because of links to a company tied to liberal billionaire George Soros!!!!!
Talk about a fake news site.....don't even need russians hacking...we can rely on our own!!!!!
Another 4 billion or so to add to the record trump debt!!! Yep.....with an economy like this paying farmers for their product....brilliant as the slurping continues on what a great non new deal he made....LOLOLOL
Source: FBI Agent Told Congress The Bureau Used Leaked Stories To Obtain Spy Warrants
An FBI special agent told Congress earlier in August that the bureau has used leaked news stories as justifications to obtain surveillance warrants against American citizens, a source familiar with the testimony tells The Daily Caller News Foundation.
During a closed-door interview with the House Judiciary and House Oversight Committees on Friday, Special Agent Jonathan Moffa told congressional investigators that the FBI and Justice Department have leaked stories to the press and then used them to obtain warrants under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).
“He more or less admitted that the FBI/DOJ have previously leaked info to the press and then used stories from the press as justifications for FISA warrants,” a source who took part in Moffa’s interview told TheDCNF.
North Carolina Republican Rep. Mark Meadows referred to Moffa’s comments in a tweet on Monday night.
“We’ve learned NEW information suggesting our suspicions are true: FBI/DOJ have previously leaked info to the press, and then used those same press stories as a separate source to justify FISA’s Unreal,” wrote Meadows, a member of the House Oversight & Government Reform Committee.
“Tomorrow’s Bruce Ohr interview is even more critical. Did he ever do this?” he added.

Now there is a compelling reason to ignore this.....an original tea bagging asshole referred to the non sourced comments....Yeah, that sure does it for me proving what a jag off you are!!!!
Phil KerpenVerified account @kerpen
CNN used Lanny as an anonymous source while stating in the same story that he declined to comment. They lied.
FAKE NEWS CNN, totally failing.
as is lo iq commie ROFLMFAO !!!

Low brow moronic daddy posted
CNN used Lanny as an anonymous source
Which proves what???? Since I didn't post cnn or talk about them.....Phil Kerpen is as credible as you.....who gives a fuck what Phit says?????
Again proving you live in an anaerobic environment of trumps ass!!!!!
Let's try talking r e a l s l o w for lo iq commie
When someone admits to being the anonymous source and the news story also claims they declined to comment the reporting is a lie.
Still probably too tough for lo iq commie to understand, will need to wrestle with that for hours.
But he will babble on about assholes, rectums, giving someone a blow job and other things he is intimately familiar with as he does in all responses.
Must be tough to be lo iq commie.

What ever you say asshole....your fellation of trump is only exceeded by your stupid logic!!! Since I didn't posit about your pile of bullshit and truly do not care....keep posting and show all what a moronic slurper you are....Must be difficult for you to walk and breathe at the same time!!! If you don't like what I post....suggest you go troll someone else....like lowretta...she needs a dumb dick to make her happy and you sure qualify....Amd again who the fuck cares what phil kerpen says other than you ????????
Even more reason that Kerpen is a worthless opinion pile of shit who is as qualified as me to write a column....
Philip G. Kerpen is an American free-market policy analyst and political organizer. He is the president of American Commitment, a conservative 501(c)(4) organization which he founded in 2012. He previously served for over five years as the vice president of Americans for Prosperity. He also worked for the Koch boys for a few years which solidifies his opinion as being biased....Oh well...
Wonder if our dipshit in chief will tweet about this latest poll?????
Here's a not particularly shocking statement—a good portion of Americans don't like President Donald Trump. But many Americans take it further than just not liking Trump. About four out of ten U.S. adults rate the former reality TV star as the worst president in American history, according a recent poll.
The poll from YouGov/The Economist released last week asked "Who was the worst President in U.S. history?" Respondents could then choose every president ever.
Forty-one percent chose Trump, who far and away earned the most support for the undesirable honor.
Yep, lo iq commie still doesn't get it.
and obviously never will.
t a l k I n g r e a l s l o w didn't help.
ROFLMFAO !!!
The fucking idiot daddy posits...

Why Trump can't do anything about Google News
Daniel Howley 2 hours 49 minutes ago

President Donald Trump has a complicated relationship with the media. Outside of Fox News, the president seems to believe that most, if not all, news organizations are biased against him and his administration. On Tuesday, though, Trump set his sights on Google (GOOG, GOOGL).
In an early-morning tweet, the president claimed that Google News only shows news from the “National Left-Wing Media;” suggested that doing so might be illegal; alleged that “Google and others” are “suppressing voices of Conservatives;” and asserted that the situation “will be addressed.”
President Trump claims that Google News is biased against conservatives.
But even if Trump’s claims were accurate, there’s little he could actually do to change what Google shows its users.
“Under current statutory and constitutional law, it is absolutely not illegal for a private media company like Google News to show only certain kinds of news—left-leaning, right-leaning, you name it,” Genevieve Lakier, an assistant law professor at the University of Chicago’s law school, told Yahoo Finance.
How Google News works
Google News is the search giant’s news aggregation page, which provides users with headlines and links to the day’s top stories. According to the company’s own explainer on how items are chosen for Google News, the majority of the headlines a user sees are selected via Google’s algorithms, which are based on your past usage history including via Google Search, YouTube and other properties, as well as subjects in which you’ve indicated your interest via the News app.
There are instances when humans curate stories within Google News, but they are relatively limited. Publishers, for example, can choose which stories appear in their respective sections of the Newstand portion of the Google News App. For instance, CNN can choose what it shows in the CNN section, while USA Today can choose what appears in the USA Today section
Question. Is it ok to laugh at lo iq commie or would that be considered cruel as he is so lo iq ?
TIA.
Fucking asshole daddy again proves why he is a fucking asshole daddy!!!!!!!
Idiot....next up for the troll.......trying to sound smart....BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!
looks like I touched a nerve with lo iq COMMIE.
Now he's shouting like a child.
ROFLMFAO !!!
And he obviously still is clueless over the simplest explanations.
Maybe VERY lo iq commie fits better
