EmmetK Posted Sunday at 09:06 PM Author Posted Sunday at 09:06 PM And speaking of polls.... Hot off the press: A new CBS poll out today found A Majority of Americans Approve of Trump Transition CBS News poll finds Trump starts on positive note as most approve of transition handling https://www.cbsnews.com/news/cbs-news-poll-trump-transition-cabinet-picks-2024-11-24/ "President-elect Donald Trump's incoming administration starts off with mostly good will from the public: a majority of Americans overall are either happy or at least satisfied that he won and are either excited or optimistic about what he'll do as president. Trump's handling of his presidential transition gets approval from most Americans overall and brings near-universal approval from his voters, along with a net-positive response about his selections for Cabinet posts, in particular, Sen. Marco Rubio, who is Trump's pick to be secretary of state. After inflation and the economy so dominated the election, Americans are more inclined to think his administration will bring down prices for food and groceries rather than raise them, and his voters overwhelmingly say that. Going into the election, his backers expected that, too." This election laid bare the Democrats big lie that they've worked hard to spread through intimidation and control of information: that a solid majority of Americans approve of their socialist, authoritarian, anti-American identity politics. Biden's demented debate performance validated to independents everything we've been saying about him for years. Americans are jumping on the Trump train in record numbers. Get on board now before it is too late. If you snooze, you lose! TRUMP2024 MAGA stevenkesslar 1 Quote

I'm hoping you shared in the wealth, @EmmetKruelty. Middle class and working class Americans who voted for Trump, and especially those who own homes, saw their net worth skyrocket under Biden and Harris. Even a cruel, fact-free MAGA true believer like @EmmetKrulety can't deny that. So I am glad middle class and working class Republicans, not to mention Trump's billionaire donors, are now feeling better about their own finances. Now we don't have to hear Trump rant about how a 33 % increase in the average American's net worth is awful. Now we can just feel good about how much better off our net worth is than in 2020, when Trump was fired. There are, of course, the younger and Latino and Black voters who did not feel the joy. They are pissed about rent and mortgage rates. Help is on the way. As the fact-free @EmmetKruelty keeps explaining to us, tax cuts for billionaires always make rents and mortgage rates lower. In fact, tax cuts for billionaires and corporations fix almost every problem the working class has. But I might be a little concerned about a few things: Pretty much every Republican who favors tariffs says they will make prices go up, but the pain is worth it. I'm guessing most Trump voters who say they favor tariffs haven't really dove into those policy details. So if 44 % of voters expect Trump to lower prices, this could be a problem. Especially because the only mandate Trump has, according to the Harris poll, is to end inflation and stop price increases. 68 % of Americans say that is their best hope for what Trump does. So it's not hard to see how this one could end badly. Here's hoping. That also could end badly, quickly. Rand Paul is obviously reading the polls. Having armed soldiers deporting house keepers is not what America wants, or voted for. But it is what Trump or his most extreme ass kissers have said they will do. Buckle up for a bumpy ride, folks. Paul also read the polls that clearly show, when given a choice, about 55 % of voters prefer some middle-of-the-road plan that includes deporting rapists and murderers and criminals, and giving house keepers and farm workers a path to stay and work and maybe become citizens. If you only ask one side of the equation, most people will say yes. Yes, deport people. Yes, give people a path to citizenship. When you ask both, Paul's point is correct. People prefer moderation and compromise to extremism and cruelty. Will Trump seek to unify America, or divide us more? Inquiring hearts want to know. And it's just bad news for Trump that people see him as a threat to democracy. This reinforces the Harris poll, which showed that the worst fear of Democrats and Independents is that Trump will act like a dictator. Why would anything think that? I mean, when Biden won by 7 million votes, they had a Day Of Love and handed flags to cops, before they beat them with flag poles. We love cops. What is the problem? The math above is very clear. 57 % of Republicans think Democrats are a threat to democracy,. Why? Because we do crazy shit like win elections by 7 million votes, and concede when we lose by a few million votes. Would we be less scary if we had a Day Of Love, and cracked open the skulls of a few cops? Hang Tim Walz? If 65 % of everyone feels threatened, simple math says way more than 65 % of Democrats and Independents feel Trump is a threat to democracy. What a mandate! That is scary. But I am sure glad Republicans are feeling better about the huge spike in their net worth, thanks to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. No need to thank us Democrats. Just do some good stuff for the working class, who are absolutely counting on tax cuts for billionaires to help them pay the rent. Quote
