Things look as rosy as can be inside the GOP’s coffin, according to RedWard.
Polling yesterday shows that the Democrats have a fight on their hands in some key battleground states, but the notion that they are desperate to impeach Trump because they feel like there is no way they can beat the least popular POTUS in the history of polling in an election is fucking hilarious.
Is he easier to beat than what might come in impeachment's aftermath?
No idea what you are trying to ask here. Do I think impeachment is hurting Trump politically? What a question. Does being revealed as a corrupt politician hurt your reelection chances…well, I hope so. And if it doesn’t, then our country is in serious trouble.
Polling would seem to indicate a small downward bump since the Ukraine business hit the news. I imagine that public testimony from all these witnesses to criminal activity are going to push him down further. But we all know there are people who will support him no matter how corrupt he is, right kiidcarter8?
Tell you what else might make him easier to beat…campaigning. Trump doesn’t talk policy much. Sure doesn’t bring it up in those big “campaign rallies.” Pure garbage can come out of his mouth and 35% of America will eat it up, but I think there is not an insignificant number of voters who care what our “president’s” position is on things like, say health insurance, and Medicare and Social Security.
In 2016 Trump ran on keeping funding on all those things as is, while promising he will be insuring everyone with the most unbelievable health insurance anyone has seen ever. What is his position on these things now? How can he argue that he is going to insure everyone, when he is on record for supporting kicking 30 million people off their health insurance? His polling was never lower than when that was in the news, and his positions on taxes aren’t that much more popular. And who out there is ready to be convinced that his trade wars were a plus for the economy (besides people like yourself, of course, kiidcarter8) Has caging children proven to be a popular immigration policy?
Was reading somewhere how Democrats always overestimate how much policy matters. Fair enough, maybe that is true. But we’ve never seen a politician run before with
no policy. Racism, talking tough and triggering the libs is enough for a distressingly large percentage of the population. But as bad as things have gotten I still don’t think that is enough to win a national election.
