GOP pollster: Policies with Trump's name tend to lose support in polls

Source: The Hill

Republican pollster Conor Maguire said on Monday that policies explicitly attached to President Trump tend to lose support in surveys.

"We look at this all the time in polling. As soon as you attach that Trump name to it, you lose a huge percentage of voters right away in their support," Maguire, senior client strategist at WPA Intelligence, told Hill.TV's Joe Concha on "What America's Thinking."

"It is amazing. Whether it's the 'I don't want to agree with anything that the president is pushing forward,' or 'I don't want to give him credit for anything,' that certainly plays a big role into it," he continued.

"That's one of the things we always test, and always look at, [which] is why do people not like something? Is it strictly just party? Is it strictly anti-Trump? Or is there something more to it?" he said.

An extremely right wing video which makes excuses for tRump's name making things less popular, as does the whole article. The article and video pretty much ignore the reason tRump's name makes this less popular is hat tRump's acts have been very extreme and bad for the majoritity of Americans and other life forms on earth.
