Public Opinion after Jan.6 Capitol Protest
https://www.washingtonpost.com...2-af78-4949613740cc/

A few points I find interesting:

  • Trump’s approval ratings, even now, is not at all-time low. There were times in 2018 and 2019 when Trump’s approval ratings were even lower, albeit only slightly
  • There are still 3 out of 10 who believe that there is “solid evidence” supporting the “widespread voter fraud” narrative
  • There are still 3 out of 10 who think that Trump has acted “responsibly” by his statements and actions since the November (2020) election.

    When George W. Bush was president surveys showed a constant 30% that would follow him anywhere.
    IMO there is an unshakeable 30% that is always ready to follow a right wing leader anywhere.

    Scary results. Most of the country is unmoved.

    I’d like to know how these polls are being conducted.

    As Nate Silver instructs us, calling people on land lines is spectacularly inaccurate (who has a land line any more?) and those polls have no value. In fact, it’s pretty obvious that Nate himself no longer has value because he can’t figure out a better way to poll.

    I’m not putting a lot of trust in these numbers.

    See https://assets.documentcloud.o...-1-17-21-release.pdf

    It says “Interviews: 1000 Registered Voters, including 590 respondents with a cell phone only.”
