I did an online Rasmussen poll this AM.... get this shit....slanted much? OH, and I was 'dismissed'

Nearly done and clicked NEXT and it said, 'Sorry, we've already reached our quote of responses.' Uh huh.
And I forgot to add that it began with 'is the country headed in the right or wrong direction' and 'what do you think of the job that Asshole (it said its name) is doing as President. Strongly approve...blah blah and of course I clicked 'strongly disapprove.' It also asked your political party.

Fivethirtyeight gives them a C+ rating. Perhaps you should bring this to Nate Silver's attention hlthe2b Oct 2019 #5

Seems the religious zealots are making moves to subjugate the Constitution to the Bible.

How these polls work has been a mystery to me. These are very strange questions. Those last two look like quotes from William Barr's recent speech(?)

Could be the case although i wouldnt be zurprised there is some algorithm that only accepts answers from conservatives.

or how they say, the fix is in especially with t-rump. There is no way his approval remains constant. I believe his poll numbers are way lower, but to keep them constant and even raise them prior to election is for the stealing. I truly believe that.
