“IBD/TIPP Poll: Surprise! Despite Media Trash Talk, Nation’s Mood Brightens“

Back in 2008, during the height of the Kerry-Edwards campaign, a liberal journalist said something he lived to regret, admitting media affected polling as much as 15 points.

(Keep in mind, people, the media coverage of Pres Trump has been 92-95% negative.)

The journalist tried to walk his reveal back, but many media wonks initially confirmed the reveal…and, if the estimation’s true, IBD’s Presidential Leadership Index (45.7%)…

…ABSENT negative coverage…could actually be as high as 60%!

And IBD’s Direction of the Country Index (50.1%) could actually be 65%!

The President’s approval rating (Rasmussen 47%) could be 62%!!! Just as importantly, conversely, his disapproval rating (Rasmussen 51%) could be as low as 36%!!!

Admittedly, journalists are – if anything – overly impressed with their own importance, and the impact they have on the electorate, but even if half right, there’s still hope.

The American populace has become glaringly aware of FakeNews, and if the IBD poll is any indication, looks like optimism/mood is ‘woke’ and headed in the right direction…

…despite FakeNews.
