You see, a reasonable person would take the fact that people would celebrate their death as a sign to change...

That's kind of a weird thing to say. We've got plenty of death threats going around lately; should Democratic candidates change their ways as a result?

She sounds eminently qualified. How the hell did she end up serving in the Trump administration?

If she's affiliated with the Chamber of Commerce or the Federalists, she's pretty far on the right fringe. The federalists in particular have started heading towards total deregulation as an approach over the past few years.

I wouldn't trust that poll. It's based on a Rasmussen poll which seems to have a bunch of problems with it. For instance, they can't call people with cell phones because they only use robo calls. That tends to leave out younger people which may skew the results.

It's SO amazing that Trump is bragging about an outlier poll showing him at 50% approval 6 months in to his administration. Does he realize that even if Rasmussen is correct (it isn't) it's still the worst 6 month mark approval rating of all time?

That's not the narrative his supporters are seeing and hearing, though. They're seeing "half the country [the good half!] just loves Trump, and the other half [drat Democrats] hate him." You're seeing all kinds of rhetoric from the right about how we're a divided nation, and this fits into that narrative exactly. Through that lens, his approval ratings aren't bad, they're what his supporters would expect to see from a divided country.

A fair point. I guess I could say the difference is that one group is a pretty massive and mainstream group as opposed to a few fringe crazies, but I'm honestly unsure if that's really a significant difference or if it's even possible to distinguish between the two circumstances in any non biased way.
