Poll: Most Americans Don't Believe Trump is the Right Person for the Job

From the article:

37 percent of Americans believe Trump has the right experience to be president compared to 67 percent who said the same of his Democratic opponent, former vice president Joe Biden. 61 percent say Trump doesn’t have the right experience. Independents in particular said by a wide margin that Trump lacks the right experience (68 percent to 27 percent).

“The poll could be simply a function of people who don’t like Trump not believing he’s up to the task and responding accordingly,” The Washington Post reported. “But it’s still notable that so few of his detractors see him as having the right experience to be president, even as he has so much experience as president.”

Good news, and part of a trend, but the GOP has raised election stealing to an art form, and there is every reason to think that Putin will help the GOP to cheat.

As Gary Marshall said in "A League Of Their Own";
"Well, look who just caught up!"

Trump looked so competent and forceful there.

It is a miracle what a good editor can do.

He seemed like a dick! No editing can change that reality.
Admittedly, it did fool many people into believing that buffoon was truly a success!
