Nancy Pelosi Was At A Loss For Words When This Poll Gave Her Some Really Bad News
Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats believed they finally found the silver bullet to take down Donald Trump.Defeating Trump on the border wall fight would fracture the President’s base and send his Presidency into a death spiral.But then this new poll left Nancy Pelosi at a loss for words after delivering the Democrats some really bad news.
Fake news reporters, Democrats, and Never-Trump Republicans pushed the narrative that the government shutdown and Trump’s push for a border wall were political losers.
They cited an Associated Press/NPR poll that showed Trump’s approval rating had dropped to 34 percent.
But that poll appears to be an outlier.
Both NBC and Fox News polls found Trump’s approval rating unchanged from before the shutdown.
That wasn’t even the worst news for Democrats.
The most devastating blow to Pelosi’s strategy of 100 percent obstruction came in the form of a poll from Public Opinion Strategies.
The pollsters sampled ten districts that provided a cross-section of the electorate.
These ten districts were significant because Trump carried them by big margins in 2016, but all ten flipped to Democrats in 2018.
61 percent of the voters surveyed supported Trump’s border security policies.
53 percent of voters in these Democrat-held districts back Trump’s border wall.
By a 50-43 percent margin, these voters also believe Democrats should have accepted Trump’s compromise of three years of protection from deportation for so-called DREAMers and TPS recipients in exchange for 5.7 billion dollars in border wall funding.
