OOOPS!!!!! This was from his first state of the union!!!!

According to a CNN/ORC poll of viewers, Donald Trump's first address to Congress received a largely positive reaction from speech-watchers, with 57% who tuned in saying they had a "very positive" reaction.

That surely tells us that most Democrats couldn't stomach watching it. (CNN)

Do you agree? Does anyone know the stats on who watched it?

1. Trumpers are delusional to think....

That the shutdown is going well and is the right decision.

2. That sounds bad given that the audience was self-selecting

Watch Trump's approval ratings over the next few days. I would guess there won't be much of an impact either way.

3. URL in OP link gives date of 3/1/2017!

4. I suspect that most of the people who watched it were the benighted nitwits

who support Tiny, plus a minority of curious people with strong stomachs. So of course a good percentage would have agreed with Tiny's deranged ramblings; it was a self-selected audience.

5. Old poll, not last night

This was for his first address to Congress.

8. From the starting point expectedly low,

I would have to give him a positive rating. One positive aspect, it was 9 minutes (one minute more than scheduled). He didn't foam at the mouth and there were only a few lies. It was absent in substance, but that's normal for trump.

10. Trump's always been a lying sack of shit. Last night was no different.

11. Please delete

Wrong date, wrong speech apparently

[DUgosh]

12. It's not even for that speech

Do the right thing ....delete this

[MineralMan]

13. Why are you posting something from 2017?

How is that relevant to today?

The date is right there in the URL link.

Can you explain?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

19. If he doesn't delete it the mods should as some of the posters are responding to it as if it's legit

[MineralMan]

20. Well, enough people have pointed out the date.

I don't care if it gets deleted. It's been clarified by other DUers. Let it stand as an example of what not to post in GD.

[EleanorR]

25. Some people only read headlines, so I disagree

It should be deleted.

[MineralMan]

26. Well, you can alert on the post, but it probably

will get left by the jury.

[EleanorR]

27. I'm still hopeful the OP will return and correct his/her mistake

[Mystery sage]

14. Yes please delete

This is from when the country tried to give him a chance 2 years ago

[Totally Tunsie]

15. Time for a re-visit...

16. Democratic response had high ratings too

[Dr Hobbitstein]

17. Delete. Old poll based on old speech

[llmart]

18. Why on earth would you post something like this?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

22. Some folks make a post and don't revisit it to see the responses.

Let's hope that's the case.

[llmart]

23. But wouldn't they know they had responses from the My Posts tab?

When I get responses I always check to see what they are.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

28. They might not even be posting here at the moment.

[ecstatic]

21. His acolytes are well trained. They've already adopted trump's new phrasing - "border barrier"

Although most of them are spell border as "boarder." SMH.

24. This poll is from 2 years ago
