Trump’s first year in office was so bad that scholars already rank him as the worst president ever

    There is more interesting variation when we move our comparison to the different partisan and ideological groups within the 2018 survey. In order to identify these groups, we asked respondents two questions. The first asked which political party the respondent considered themselves a part of. The results showed that 57.2% (95/166) of respondents were Democrats, while 12.7% were Republicans (21/166), 27.1% were Independents (45/166), and 3% (5/166) selected Other as their option. The second question asked whether the respondent ideologically considered themselves to be liberal, somewhat liberal, moderate, somewhat conservative, or conservative. The results of this question showed that 32.5% (54/166) consider themselves ideologically liberal, while 25.9% (43/166) consider themselves somewhat liberal, and 24.1% consider themselves moderate (40/166). Only 5.4% (9/166) consider themselves ideologically conservative, while 12% (20/166) say they are somewhat conservative

    read the party affiliation breakdown of this survey again

    The results showed that 57.2% (95/166) of respondents were Democrats, while 12.7% were Republicans (21/166), 27.1% were Independents (45/166), and 3% (5/166) selected Other as their option.

    if I did a survey and had the party affiliation at 57% republican and only 12% democrat Obama would be at the bottom of the list

    This survey is junk in no way does it even come close to a representation of the American public
    it would be that same as going out to find who is Americas favorite foot ball team and over 50% of who I ask are from Texas

    Nope in afterthought, I decided to expand since I felt it was too important of an issue to merely comment on. Especially when reading all that BS about Obama who was the worst traitor this country has ever known.

    Geeze, and to think kids actually go into almost life long debt to be taught by these liberal/socialist progressive ideologues.

    It appears their dog whistle has captured the expected audience.

    These are the same folks who recently were 'pollsters' but kinda missed their mark about 15 months ago......they were forced to go into a new line of work.....'alt-left historical prognosticators'......

    You didn't look at (or understand) the survey results, didja?? Don't answer that, it's stone cold obvious.... Good idea NOT to try and diss something you haven't read, because you come off really badly....


    upload_2018-2-19_18-40-36.png

    Col 1 are self identified Republicans
    Col 4 are self identified Conservatives (or somewhat Conservative)

    Trump cannot break 26 from either on a 1-100 scale of 'greatness', although those numbers are @ 4X the Dem/Liberal numbers...

    Not much winning there...

    Dude, you can't save this thread. It is an online poll of 170 people.

    No one is to blame as much as the rudeass liberals who engage in their own brand of juvenile insults and totally avoiding challenges or questions about their own leaders and past decade of sins and scandals. If you did not have the TV news media, 90% of the major newspapers, academia, the entertainment industry, and the legal system almost totally on your side, you would be exposed to greater America for the frauds of which you are. Your embarrassing obsession with Trump is your only way of pretending you care about America. But your politicians and followers have destroyed this nation and showed no signs of trying to help it or even be truthful about the issues.

    And you are a perfect example of what I am describing.
    Either you are clueless or you are one of those who have no defense for the filth in your own party --- so you produce your little quips like you cannot be bothered. Who cares any longer?

    Why is this a circle jerk? Just because the OP cherry picked the answers of only liberals to an ONLINE POLL OF JUST 170 PEOPLE to claim Trump is the worst ever after only 1 year in office?

    Surely you can see the validity in such an endeavor, right?

    What a joke. It takes decades to determine if a presidency was a success.

    This is just leftist propaganda, boys. Nothing to see here.

    LOL.

    Seems the indictment has left a massive hole in the objective, time for more liberal/socialist progressive click bait.

    Can you imagine what a Political Science class would be like in today's cesspool of higher education?

    How many years would it take to pay off just one class?

    The dishonesty and criminal activities on the left for the past number of years reeks to the high heavens.
    And you don't care. Which is why your opinions are hypocritical and virtually worthless.

    So like the other thread that has a new poll showing X. I didn't even read it. No one believes polls.

    So this leftist biased thread I said. Keep an open mind catch....so in the topic header we have now changed from experts they trot out to provide skewed data to scholars....

    I made it one more sentence before I quit reading and that was when I saw who dug up these scholars.. The New York Times.

    Just like 90% of the rest of America we quit right there.

    Haha no one cares but progressive leftists. Who despite their big mouths and control over the bulk of our media are the minority.

    SCHOLARS

    LEFTISM IS DEAD.

    Moderatism is in baby... In for the win!

    I would take your bet, especially considering that republicans rated Trump the 5th worst president.

    What I think is hilarious about all these anti Trump posts is none of you libs seem to get it. Even with all of Trump's quirky narcissistic actions, he's still exactly what the country needed at this most crucial point in history. Obama and his minions had ran this country so far into the toilet, it was almost to the point of no return. And if they get their power back anytime soon, they'll make sure to finish the job. Please mark this day should that happen and remember I foretold those future events.

    Also, Obama is in hiding right now and keeping a low profile because he knows he's being investigated about much of his criminality. But should investigators drop the ball AGAIN like they have at least ten times in the past regarding Hillary, then look for him to come out of the shadows and start stirring up racial tensions AGAIN. He will also be very focused on getting the democrats back in office so they can open the floodgates to Mexico to carry on his legacy where he left off. The goal of Obama and the democrats is to load up the country with enough illegal voters via sanctuary cities to keep them in office FOREVER.

    Destroying America is Obama's main agenda because his true alliance is to the Middle East.

    And if that happens, better hang on to those AR15's because you're going to need them.
