He makes a good point.

quote:

Pollster Matt Towery told Fox’s Laura Ingraham on Wednesday that President Donald Trump’s historically low approval ratings are wrong, claiming that “the pollsters are wrong and I’m right.”


quote:

“I want people to know right now, the polling that you’re seeing come in on Trump is incorrect. The reason it’s off is most of these polls do not correlate. They don’t wait for his last election. Donald Trump has a floor basically of about 41, 42 if he has an absolutely worst day,” he said. “He was a ceiling of about 56 or 57, because the rest of the country is so polarized, you can only go that far. But he has a loyal 43 to 44 percent on any day of the month. And when he is doing well, he has got 50 plus. And the pollsters are wrong. And I’m right. I guarantee I’m right about that.”

Matt Towery is one of the most accurate. See this take:

I listened to a pollster on a podcast last week who said the approval rating numbers are at historical lows for Trump and his methodology is the same as it’s been for 20 years. He specifically said that the low numbers for bumblin Biden were arrived at using the same methodology he uses now so it’s not a bias or other ancilliary influence.

Of course he’s right - Trump has had an amazing term so far - every president has missteps - that’s life - but over all I’m thrilled

They are still missing how solid Trump’s base is. I tend to agreed with this part:

This isn’t even a poll per say. He is just pointing out that it almost impossible for Trump to fall below 41% because of the size of his base and their loyalty.

The problem for the left is that many of the same people who criticize Trump on occasion will never vote for a Democrat ever again.

Well I remember all those polls in 2016 saying the psycho lady had it in the bag.

Turns out it was only her in the bag.

Prior to 16 I used to answer polls and felt it was a “civic duty” to do so.

Now I see XXX polling on caller ID, or a text from a polling company, or once they state they are a polling company I hang up/reject the call.

I’m sure there are a lot more Trump voters who do the same.

Pollsters do not like to talk about the "fr{[k off" rate. Pollsters know when people are happy there are less "fr{[k offs". Always ask the "fr{[k off" rate be included for true analytics.

"The guy I agree with is right" is about the most predictable take from you that anyone could imagine.

Anyone who says they are wrong and I am right isn’t exactly a scholar. That doesn’t mean he’s wrong. It just means he lacks polish. He is probably autistic.
