Poll: Only 7% of Voters Back Wall Funding to End Shutdown

https://www.thedailybeast.com/poll-only-7-of-voters-back-wall-funding-to-end-shutdown

This poll, which also finds that Trump's disapproval rating has hit an all-time high (for this polling group) at 57%, finds that support for the wall remains at 43% here. However, if funding the wall is the only to open the government, the level of support drops to 7%. This is how the question is phrased for those curious:



You can find a link to the poll topline's here and the poll crosstab's here.

And for those who, like me, want to see more than one data point, here are the headlines for a couple more polls released in the last two days:

Pelosi has edge over Trump on budget negotiations, CBS News poll shows

SUPPORT FOR DONALD TRUMP'S IMPEACHMENT IS HIGHER THAN HIS APPROVAL RATING, NEW POLL SHOWS

 

@MMC , you still on for letting me know when support for Trump's wall reaches 50%?

 

And for those who are eager to dismiss this poll because it "oversamples" a particular political demographic, here you go:

 

Polls mean nothing when they're rigged.

 

Looks like you've colluded with the Russians.. or perhaps just the communist.. oh.. wait.. it's the Daily Beast.. so that's just a redundancy.

 

It wasn't the poling that was incorrect in 2016; it was the analysis of the polling.

Can't you see the distinction, or are you just content to ride the false narrative?

 

Hillary by 10!

 

BTW.. I'd like to take a economical vacation.. is your door open? What do you have in the fridge.. I prefer good steaks.. oh.. and leave your car keys.. might want to borrow that and make sure the tank is full!

 

Your meme picture is a broken link.

 

Your **** speaking points are showing.

 

Do you really think that is a valid analogy?

 

Maybe you should quit posting the same ole tired 'news' -- which is really nothing but partisan BS.

 

ah yes, trump supporter reaction to bad news, cover ears, eyes and mouth, as if it never happened.

 

Maybe you need help understanding what qualifies as news.

New polling data regarding the ongoing Trump shutdown over funding a tiny portion of the monument he wants to build for himself is news.

 

If you don't.. then yes I DO! I use you as a kind of "reverse barometer" as explained in the movie "Little Big Man"

 

independent voters are aligning against trump. trump supporters are incapable of accepting the reality.

Using a lawyer and formal logic teacher as a reverse barometer is probably a bad call, but you do you.

 

Why do you want to exploit these misguided individuals? The rich Government Cronies want them for cheap labor.. which explains why the Republicans won't support US citizens and their President.. and the Demonrats need a new underclass to vote demonrats into power for the next century.. and then.. of course.. there are their own countrymen who use them for drug mules, sex trafficking and extortion of what little pay they do receive. Seems very cruel to me.

 

polls can be rigged

 

Turns out Americans don’t like the dotard holding the entire country hostage so he can get allowance for his stupid pet project.

 

I hear this claim a lot, but the reality is not many polls swing too far from the national pulse.

Clinton-Trump took the whole world by shock...a majority of Americans not looking to build Trump's wall is not. ...no where close

 

Wait ... a leftist rag poll? And it’s against Trump?

 

Didn’t Cohen try to do that for Trump?

 

Trump isn’t backing down.

Nancy will NEVER get any dreamer/DACA legislation without a wall. But she really doesn’t want that anyway. She wants the status quo.

 

Emerson poll: Americans want better border enforcement by more than 2:1.....


Given the tenor of media coverage of “dreamers” and this standoff over the wall, this seems a little counter-intuitive. Looking at the polling results from Emerson, however, it makes sense. As it turns out, most voters want tougher enforcement, and Democrats find themselves on the fringe on this issue.

Respondents overall wanted to increase immigration enforcement at the border by a margin better than 2:1 over opposition, 55/24. Among Republicans, it’s 81/8, but it’s also very popular with independents at 57/20. Only among Democrats is there opposition to the idea of increased immigration enforcement — but only by a plurality, 27/44. Almost 30% of Democrats told Emerson they were unsure or have no opinion on the matter.

What about the wall itself? Overall, 41% say it isn’t a solution for border enforcement at all, but 59% believe that it is either the best solution (26%) or one of many solutions (33%). More than two-thirds of Democrats (69%) say it’s no solution, but only 15% of Republicans and 38% of independents agree. The effort by Democrats to delegitimize the border wall as a vanity project or a futile idea has only worked within their own ranks.

Who gets the blame for the shutdown? Amusingly, hardly anyone blames Republicans on Capitol Hill, not even Democrats, 7% of whom assign blame on the GOP caucuses. Democrats blame Trump (74%), Republicans blame Democrats in Congress (64%), while independents spread the blame more equally (37% on Trump, 35% on Democrats in Congress, and 24% on everyone)…...snip~

Imagine that 59%.....Independents and now Latinos. Helping to push those numbers up. All within a week. Now that they are seeing the Democrats lying and not negotiating.

Did you want to tout Emerson as a Right leaning Poll.

Stay the course Trump, another week or two and Democrats will cave.
