    I cannot believe that as a president holding a position that used to command world respect, his tweets and comments are extremely personal and childishly derogatory. He stoops to lows that no other politician I can think of has ever done.

    I can understand the Democrats being obstructive when they are treated this way.

    Or just the ones that they're polling. Nobody asked me what I thought about it. I doubt anyone asked Lance, or Pony, or Muddy, or Porky, or any other American on this board. But you know, that's how polls work. Find a surefire small sample population of people that agrees with the opinion that you're trying to prove as fact, and then ask them what they think about the issue.

    There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.

    Would you be saying the same if the polls reflected your own opinion?

    Your comment seems to show that you have little understanding on the professionalism of polling but I don't believe that. You're probably just pissed at the fact they don't swing your way.... :

    If you were here in Australia, I would tell you to "Go stick your head up a dead bear's bum".

    But I'm more polite than to be so derogatory to you.

    You are so blinkered it is unbelievable.

    As for intelligence, you didn't even read my post correctly.... I said that you "SEEM" to show little understanding and that "DIDN'T" believe that. It does seem that all you managed to take in was that the post didn't agree with your own point of view!!

    REPORT
    Trump Can’t Do That. Can He?





    If U.S. President Donald Trump decides to withdraw from NATO tomorrow, Congress might be unable to stop him.

    That’s the conclusion a group of top lawmakers and some legal experts have reached, as Trump over the past two years has repeatedly bashed the alliance and extended olive branches to Russian President Vladimir Putin—even while his administration has taken some steps to support NATO.

    U.S. membership in NATO retains broad public support and nearly unanimous backing in an otherwise fractious Congress. And any attempt to alter America’s role in the alliance would push the president into uncharted legal waters, even setting aside the geopolitical shockwaves.



    GALLUP POLL!!

    Donald Trump ordered opinion polls be rigged, former lawyer Michael Cohen says





    Michael Cohen, Donald Trump's former personal lawyer, says he paid a firm to manipulate online polling data "at the direction of and for the sole benefit of" the future President.

    The Wall Street Journal reported Mr Cohen paid data company RedFinch Solutions to manipulate two public opinion polls in favour of Mr Trump before the 2016 presidential campaign.

    "As for the @WSJ article on poll rigging," Mr Cohen wrote on Twitter on Thursday, "what I did was at the direction of and for the sole benefit of @realDonaldTrump @POTUS. I truly regret my blind loyalty to a man who doesn't deserve it."

    The attempts to influence the polls ultimately proved largely unsuccessful but shed light on the tactics of the Trump campaign and Mr Cohen's role within it.

    On the campaign trail, Mr Trump frequently referred to his polling numbers to help fuel his candidacy.

    NB:

    As another member has stated, - polls can be rigged! It appears that could be a true statement, especially if you have the money to rig them.....
