CBS Poll- 76% Approve of SOTU Speech

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Of course what the OP isn't telling you (or at least isn't highlighting) is that the 76% is of people who watched the speech. Now....the question becomes who watched the speech? It was primarily people who still buy the lies and half-truths; in other words people who support the blob. So the 76% "approval" is not all that great.

Those are the facts; now back to the spin.

Like Abrahm's. She didn't watch yet stuck her king size foot in her mouth

-Geaux

I didn't watch either Trump or Abrams; what did she say that caused her to put her foot in her mouth?

She went against Trumps agenda for one. It's a long list for her. Cried about unfair elections and how every vote should count. Like most Democrats, she is having a hard time excepting election results

-Geaux

No, she is having a hard time "accepting" results. Learn the difference in the words.

So what? Anyone in 2019 that has nothing better to do then watch a SOTU, self-kiss ass speech is either a dinosaur and/or a sheep.
I haven't watched one in at least 20 years.

SOTU? Some 'white' guy reads some speech that a bunch of people took weeks to write that says nothing but 'the country is better then ever', 'but it needs this or that' and 'I am a fantastic POTUS'.

Nothing but utter and complete bullshit.

I'll give you a SOTU speech:

'The Union is fucked up'.

The End

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Yep. That was a speech for all time. Just an excellent job.

Even the Sheriff of El Paso called bullshit on Trump And you had to love the" FUCK YOU' Pelosi clap she gave to Trump when he lied his ass off about unity

Trump is correct. El Paso is one the safest cities list. B- for crime and safety.

Living in El Paso

"All told, a legion of empirical evidence supports the idea a southern border wall could, in fact, work. There is also anecdotal evidence. In local press accounts, El Paso residents and business owners alike have praised the fence, citing it as an effective deterrent to both illegal crossings and crime."

https://nypost.com/2018/01/13/we-already-have-a-border-wall-and-it-works/

El Paso is also the VD capital of the USA.

If you would just move, that number would greatly improve!

So you like paying $6.00 for a can of kernel corn?

Welfare is welfare no matter how republicans disguise it

Welfare is getting money for no work. Farmers work very hard and take an enormous risk.

Yes they do, but they are still being given our tax dollars, often in payment for not growing something.

Our tax dollars are being redistributed to them, and you support it.

Yes, I do. Farmers are some of the hardest working people in the nation. You couldn't do it. I grew up in the midwest and I know what it takes.

I am not disagreeing with you, I work with farmers every day, my job is in the Ag industry. I live in the midwest and see it first hand.

But it does prove my point that both sides approve of "socialism" in one form or another.

I don't think farm subsidies are socialist. I think it's business.

 

[iceberg]

wow.

x a n a x is a banned word. must be for spam control.

But not cracker

my guess is there's a shitload of drug companies that create an ID and spam you with where to buy RX drugs w/o an RX so they ban many of the medications not cause they care if you say them, but because it also blocks the spam.

good move.

Wow ... a CBS poll.

The poll apparently was taken before the Fake Newsers could re-educate people on the speech.

 

[iceberg]

Giving a good speech is not the same as being a good president. He may get a bump in his approval numbers but he will promptly do something to send them right back down.

The SUBSTANCE of his speech was excellent, and accurate, especially with regards to Jobs, the Economy, our booming ENERGY sector, Prison Reform, Border Security, etc. What was inaccurate in those areas? Be specific.

--------------------------------------------------------

Mr. Trump said that America is the largest crude oil producer in the world and that production has hit a record high.

This is true.

The United States has been the largest producer of oil and gas in the world since 2013, a trend that began under the Obama administration thanks in large part to advances in shale drilling techniques.

Mr. Trump claimed nearly 5 million people have been lifted off food stamps.

This is exaggerated.

The number of Americans in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program decreased by more than 3.5 million between February 2017 — Mr. Trump’s first full month in office — to September 2018, according to the latest available data. By comparison, the number of people receiving the aid decreased by 5 million from June 2015 to January 2017.

Mr. Trump said that Ralph Northam, the embattled governor of Virginia, said he would execute a baby after it was born.

This is false.

In an interview last month, Governor Northam said that he supported a late-term abortion bill that would loosen restrictions on the procedure, and allow women to consult with a doctor on an abortion up to, but not including, the time of birth.

The governor, a pediatric neurologist, also talked about some of the dangerous medical emergencies that pregnant women could face, such as carrying a nonviable fetus. He said that in such a case, the mother would deliver the infant and then, “the infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.” While Mr. Northam was talking about an end-of-life care discussion in the case of a child that would not live, Republicans seized on his remarks as evidence that Mr. Northam supported killing babies after their birth.

Mr. Trump said his administration is holding talks with several groups in Afghanistan, including the Taliban.

This is true.

Mr. Trump said that American forces last month killed one of the leaders of the 2000 bombing of the naval destroyer Cole.

This is true.

Mr. Trump said that American troops have been “fighting in the Middle East for almost 19 years.”

This is false.

American troops deployed to Afghanistan on Oct. 7, 2001, to begin Operation Enduring Freedom — the American military and NATO mission to rid Afghanistan of Al Qaeda. But Afghanistan is not technically considered part of the Middle East — it is in southwest Asia. The United States invaded Iraq, which is in the Middle East, in March 2003 — nearly 16 years ago.

Mr. Trump said that lawmakers in New York cheered the passage of legislation that would allow a baby to be ripped from the mother’s womb moments before birth.

This is misleading.

On Jan. 22, the 46th anniversary of the Supreme Court’s landmark Roe v. Wade decision, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, a Democrat of New York, signed the Reproductive Health Act, which ensures a woman’s right to an abortion in New York if Roe v. Wade were to be overturned. It does not broadly allow abortions until shortly before birth, as Mr. Trump suggested. Instead, it will allow for an abortion after 24 weeks to protect the mother’s health or if the fetus is not viable. Under the prior law, abortions were allowed after 24 weeks only if the woman’s life was in jeopardy.

Fact Checking the 2019 State of the Union Address

I find it funny that those statements labeled false, exaggerated, or misleading are not facts, but opinions. Shouldn't you?

if they disagree with trump, he's a liar.

that's where we are these days. not to say he doesn't get it wrong and/or lie at times, but they've labeled everything he says a "lie" which makes them cry wolf too much to be believed.

 

[conserveguy877]

I love it how the Trump hating democrats are being in denial of the fact he gave a great speech.

a "great speech" is purely subjective..that is like attacking someone for not liking the same music you do.

A business. The farmer also pays taxes. If the farmer paid no taxes and produced nothing, then it would be welfare.

I never said it was welfare, I said it was redistribution of wealth...which you agreed it was.

There are many fact-checking articles online so I will not waste my limited time this morning going into that. I was more talking about Trump's habit of sabotaging himself. Another shutdown will be the end of him.

But voting for a democrat is a permanent Shutdown of government, you can’t govern so trump is the only option

 

[The Original Tree]

Dems:

75% of The Country Approved of the SOTU?

Lies....LIES!

 

[Jitss617]

I’ve never seen some many Democrat women wear make up and try to look pretty for a man they say they hate! They were probably so wet all the chairs had to be replaced

Nothing.

It was a passable speech. It was boring.

Mostly it was targeted at their base. They put up a inter-sectional victim, some real red meat for their base.

Pretty predictable. And pathetic sad to say. I don't know what dope made that decision.

A loser to contrast a winner? They should have had a successful current sitting rep. or Senator, IMO.

Americans love a winner. That has always been true, it isn't different now.

State of the Union Fact Check: What Trump Got Right and Wrong

~S~

no one believes fact checkers

My God, we're stupid.

No, we know the corporate oligarchy has an agenda and the "fact checkers" are spinning the facts as much as the corporate representatives we call politicians.
