3rd poll shows nonwhite support for Trump in low 30s

new poll by left leaning NPR confirms Rasmussen and Emerson poll findings.

very, very good news for Trump. He cannot lose if that’s anywhere near accurate.

Hilary won 88% of the black vote.

It’s interesting to watch people falling over themselves lauding Rasmussen’s latest polling data that shows black support for President Donald Trump at 34 percent, because I’m old enough to remember last fall, when that number was actually at 36 percent.

This poll has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 2.5 percentage points, which basically means black support for the president hasn’t changed over the past year.

But, to contextualize that, it’s important to remember that when Trump took office, his favorability among black Americans was only at 8 percent. So, sure, there was a meteoric rise in support over a two-year span. But, clearly, that trend has abated.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

so you take comfort that it was also in the 30s a year ago!!

Pete, are you saying that if he gets 30% of the black vote in 2020, that’s no big deal? that means he wins.

wdmso is saying the polls are fake, you’re saying they’re no big deal because they are leveling off.

You’re scared and desperate, and you should be, and it shows.
