    The Poll is from Marist at the behest of NPR/PBS. http://www.npr.org/2017/08/16/54395...nse-to-charlottesville-hasn-t-been-strong-eno

    1. Charlottesville hasn't impacted Trumps popularity or favorable/unfavorable rating at all.
    2. The breakdown between those wanting to let the statues be and those wanting them destroyed/removed hugely favors leaving them be among every voting bloc save those who identify themselves as liberal or very liberal and even there the margin is only mid fifties to mid forties.

    3.Even Among African Americans a plurality is in favor of them staying.

    4.While 52% believe Trump did not react strongly enough more questions should have been asked. To ascertain exactly in what way.

    There is another question on the poll that I believe to be somewhat absurd. It involves the car plowing into a crowd of people. It asks if the crime should be investigated as an act of terror. Is it not one of the purposes of the forthcoming investigation to determine whether or not it was an act of terror? After all basic police procedures do not change whether one is investigating a terrorist act, grand theft auto or shoplifting. You collect the evidence, interview witness, and follow where the info leads.

    I did. Trump didn't accept racism then or now. Drop the BS unsubstiated claims.

    Who the **** said that? No one that's who. Certainly not trump. Why do you have to be so disingenuous amd petty all the time? There are so many legitimate complaints you can make about trump yet you stoop to childish Bullshit
