You realize the article is basically about the campaign trying (and failing) to do what like half a dozen RMers do every time there's a poll on this site, right? On two online opinion polls. What are you amazed by in that article?

It's almost like, oh I dunno, people are only reading the (clickbait, sensationalist) headlines of these articles or something...

You mean we're falling into the same trap that elected Trump in the first place? Oh no...

“Interesting” and “OMG IT’S THE SMOKING GUN” are very different reactions.

An example of why it’s interesting to me is that it focused on misrepresenting Trump’s popularity relative to other GOP candidates (that’s not quite the interesting part), and so the fallout and the sense of being taken in lands on a very different set of shoulders, politically:

Trump has Clapped Back with a your plans are cancelled letter of his own. Was Pelosi really planning to travel abroad? I'm kind of pissed at her for not cancelling her plans and leaving herself wide open for this counter move by orange douche if so.

Yeah now is not the time for the usual congressional Afghanistan boondoggle

Troop visit with a NATO stop in Brussels.

It’s a pretty unaccomplished counter move, though (as evidenced by Trump apologist Graham calling it the folly it is). It’s the sort of “I know you are but what am I” move that speaks to Trump’s ego, but runs counter to his goals.

Also, given the massive power the House has to allocate funds for White House programs (or to not), flexing White House purse power is super, super weak.

lol. The juxtaposition between canceling Nancy’s troop visit and still traveling to Davos immediately led him to another concession. So much winning.

“Being so determined to attack your sworn enemy that you blow up your own ship to do it” is a strategy usually left to Starscream.

see Brexit thread.

hoisted by his own retard

“Here’s a hint.”

538's approval average is now below 40%

Oh also the Davos trip was supposed to be Mnuchin’s excuse to not brief Ways and Means on the economic consequences of the shutdown

I believe Trump's polling nadir was sometime in December 2017. I have no idea what drove it so low, although it was around the time Flynn was indicted.
