Horrible news for the media.


quote:

The Republican tax cut law, which once appeared overwhelmingly unpopular, is now supported by a narrow majority of Americans, according to a SurveyMonkey poll published in the NY Times.

Support is at 51% overall (up from 37% in December), 89% among Republicans and 19% among Democrats.
Why it matters: Republicans see selling the tax cuts as perhaps the most important part of preserving the congressional majorities in the 2018 midterms.

Shows the power of the press to push a stupid opinion to people not paying attention.

One wishes this would cause people to ask what else they are being lied to about but I won't hold my breath.

That this bill was polling in the low 20's before it passed and the majority of the country now approves of it two months later is a testament to the massive disinformation campaign waged against it by the Democrats, fully aided and abetted by a complicit media.

Shows the distrust Americans have in political promises and the mechanism that executed them.

As close as it gets, I guess. They are 52% negative on Trump and 48% positive. That's far right wing to the fringe leftist.

The sad part is that many of those who are happy with the tax cuts won't think back to how the Democrats but more importantly the media lied to them and went into a complete hysteria over tax cuts.

If 52 percent negative is considered far right? Take a guess, fringe lefty.

Every gop Congressman and senator needs to bludgeon their opposition with it. Trump with his fireside tweets will be key to make sure the left and media are held accountable. Joe manchin in particular
