65 percent think he's arrogant, and a majority think he is opportunistic, reckless, dishonest, and corrupt.
37 percent approve and 56 percent disapprove. 27 percent agree that he is honest, 23 percent that he is compassionate, 23 percent that he is inspirational, and 22 percent that he is likeable.
Wait, wait, I'm confused. The elite DC press corps assured us that the reason Hillary and Kamala lost was because they were not likeable. But only twenty two percent like donnie? It's so confusing.

(11,665 posts)Obama did a mostly fine, SCANDLE-FREE, job.
What did the press pound on?
The TEA PARTY and the soshulizm they screamed about that didn't fucking exist.
Because Obama doing shit mostly right, most if the time, is BORING.

Those that choose not to vote for either party would by default consent to being sent to war regardless of which party won. And those that voted against - could sit on the sidelines as the shit show unfolds.

senseandsensibility
(24,849 posts)but then again, their support in general is based on nothing except a desire to be lied to and a need for someone to follow. That's how it seems to me.

They hate minorities, immigrants & liberals like you & me that they are intoxicated.
They are not capable of thinking straight, and like most addicts, they think they are smarter & more popular than they are when high.
It isn't until they kick the addiction that they think clearly again. And, like many addicts, they may never kick the habit.

(12,416 posts)... cultivated by decades of right-wing demagoguery first shown to be very profitable by Rush Limbaugh. They will simply not vote for Democrats, no matter what sort of trash the GOP supports. What that means, I think, is that Dems need to be very careful about assuming that the elections will be a cakewalk.

(5,314 posts)How do people gullible enough to think he's honest, likeable, inspirational, and compassionate survive without an ounce of common sense? 🤷♀️ My Kindergarten teacher who beat the crap out of me for giggling at a boy who made a funny face at me probably had more compassion than he has.

(24,849 posts)You were a respondent? That's cool. I never get polled for anything.

(1,891 posts)It was years ago and Ive gotten loads of surveys. I mainly do them because you get points and every few months, I cash them in for $100. Theyre usually pointless (especially since I havent watched teevee in over 10 years and cant remember when I last went to the movies), but every once in a while they get politicaland this one was a doozy.
I think you can sign up if you find them online. I also do ipsos surveys, same deal.
