How big of tax cuts do we need? MORE!
How much funding does the military need? MORE!
How much do we need to spend on border security? MORE!
How much spending on infrastructure, social programs, education, science, and quality of life do we need? Well, that's hard to say because we have this here deficit that's just out of control. We really need to tackle it somehow and there just isn't anywhere to get money in the budget right now. Deficit spending cannot be allowed. #fiscalconservative #sorrynotsorry

Also, Mr. President, the stock market says you should take a break from Twitter for a while...

The foregoing rants brought to you by Trump reaching a 50% approval rating—apparently higher than Obama at the same point in his presidency.  Oh. I don’t believe it. |

I agree. We need more accurate and unbiased polling, like all those that projected Hillary would win Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania. Try again smart guy. |

President Trump called CNN “fake” again on Monday, but a new Monmouth University poll shows that a plurality of Americans put more trust in the network than in the president. The Monmouth University Poll also finds that Pres. Trump is trusted less as source of information than three cable news outlets – except if you ask Republicans. Nearly half the American public (48%) trusts CNN more than Trump, compared with one-third (35%) who trust Trump more than CNN and another 13% who trust both equally as a source of information. The results are similar when Trump is pitted against the left-leaning MSNBC – 45% trust MSNBC more, 32% trust Trump more, and 16% trust both equally. The right-leaning Fox News also bests the president as a trusted information source – 30% trust Fox more and 20% trust Trump more, although a plurality of 37% trust both equally. https://www.monmouth.edu/polling-institute/reports/monmouthpoll_us_040218/ |

Beautiful thing about polls, and statistics, you can skew the numbers however you want them based on the questions and the way they are asked, and the market you ask them in. You could conduct a poll that shows that Reagan should be elected in 2020, and that Carter was the best president ever. |

From some stupid polling company. President Donald Trump is not alone in thinking media outlets spread "fake news."
More than 3-in-4 of 803 American respondents, or 77 percent, said they believe that major traditional television and newspaper media outlets report “fake news,” according to a Monmouth University poll released Monday, marking a sharp increase in distrust of those news organizations from a year ago, when 63 percent registered concerns about the spread of misinformation. https://www.politico.com/story/2018/04/02/poll-fake-news-494421 |

Finally watched "Get Me Roger Stone" last night.
Very enlightening. If you haven't watched it, do so.
It wasn't a stone smear documentary. Stone was an active participant in the film with a camera crew following him around.
His last quote was "if you don't hate me, I didn't do my job"

Here's why this is sad: You can objectively measure how often a news station or a public figure fails to tell the truth. When Trump is speaking, he is usually NOT telling the truth. Only 31% of what he says is "mostly true" or better. Corrections are not given: http://www.politifact.com/personalities/donald-trump/When CNN is speaking, they are telling the truth most of the time, 73% of the time. Weird to brag about 73% accuracy, but such is the state of things: http://www.politifact.com/punditfact/tv/cnn/Oh well, the latest poll has his approval rating back down to 44%. Rolling average of polls still around 42%, the rolling average hasn't been positive for over a year... if you think such things matter in March in a mid-term year. Which they did yesterday, but now that the numbers are negative again I suppose they don't matter anymore (like the markets). But hey, we've gone a day and a half this week without new indictments, top level turnover, a new trade war, or another woman coming forward to tell a story about the President. Good week so far! Wait, dang. I see someone else was sentenced today in the corruption investigation. Quick, Tweet something ridiculous (9 tweets and counting)! |

https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/trump-approval-ratings/Also, CNN gives a platform to wretched humans like Jeffrey Lord. They care only about ratings and money. When Trump manages to read a speech written by C+ Santa Monica fascist Steven Miller without starting a war their talking heads go on and on about how "Presidential" Trump is. CNN is a joke.
