Liberals run a poll on who is the better president...didn't go quite as expected.

Hilarious that not only did they try to make this poll as biased as possible by tweeting it on Obama's birthday, but by actually hashtaging it "Obama day" so it would get more votes.

Funny how the media keeps telling us that Trump is so unpopular based on polls, but I've yet to see an internet poll where Trump loses. I mean take for example George Takei, a guy with a good amount of liberal followers tweets a poll thinking it will go one way and then it doesn't.

As soon as it looks like it's not going his way, he deletes it.

So why aren't online polls trolled by liberals? All things being equal, we should have a ton of online polls that are just as trolled by liberals, right? I mean especially since supposedly more people are against Trump than for him, right?
 
The alt right supporters of trunp while actually small in number are fanatical. So any poll that is voluntary will overstate trumps popularity (as his fanatical base overwhelms the results and the moderates don't bother). Any poll that is involuntary will not show this effect. This is statistics 101: sampling.

I don't know what moves people to waste their time like that. Trump is a prime example of this, perhaps you should study the guy.

Trump shares dubious Twitter poll saying he's better than Obama

President Trump shared a dubious Twitter poll Thursday that shows him to be considered “a better president” than his predecessor, former President Barack Obama.

The poll was conducted Aug. 4, Obama’s birthday. Nearly 30,000 people voted, but self-selecting online surveys are almost useless in terms of getting an accurate sample.

David Axelrod, a former Obama adviser, weighed in on Trump’s “desperate” embrace of the poll.

In contrast with the poll touted by Trump, scientific surveys use random sampling to try to get an accurate slice of the American public. Those mainstream polls have repeatedly given Trump historically dismal approval ratings.

(The ABC/Washington Post and NBC/Wall Street Journal polls were actually within the margin of error on Election Day.)


The nature of ProgressPolls, the creator of the poll Trump shared Thursday, is murky. The account, which is unverified and has no corresponding website attached, was created in March 2016 but has scrubbed the bulk of its tweets from before July 26. The president’s son Donald Trump Jr., White House press secretary Sarah Sanders and erstwhile White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci are among its 124,000 followers.

Two recent ProgressPolls Twitter surveys asked users whether they believe the conspiracy theory purporting that the murder of Seth Rich was orchestrated by his employer, the Democratic National Committee, and whether the gender pay gap is a myth.

This on-line poll is not in any sense scientifically reliable.
