Nancy Pelosi Has Public Condescending Meltdown During CNN Interview…

The hubris and condescension in this video snippet are quite remarkable, especially when we consider that Wolf Blitzer is a fellow traveler, friend and ally of Pelosi, and professional narrative engineer for the political left.  [There’s a shorter version below the fold]

After being asked a question about her refusal to accept a compromise $1.8 trillion spending package for COVID-19 economic impacts, Nancy Pelosi has a total meltdown.  Pelosi is so unfamiliar with even gentle push-back, she cannot fathom an alternate point of position that does not carry exclusive democrat political benefit.  This is wild:

Trump’s Tweet Didn’t Declassify Anything, White House Says

Re-Posted from The Epoch Times BY IVAN PENTCHOUKOV October 14, 2020 Updated: October 14, 2020Print

The White House told the Department of Justice (DOJ) that President Donald Trump’s tweets about declassifying “any & all documents” related to the Russia probe and the Clinton-email investigation did not actually declassify anything.

The Justice Department disclosed the message from the White House in a filing before a federal court on Oct. 13. The DOJ was responding to a motion in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit seeking the release of the interview summaries from special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation. The plaintiffs in the lawsuit asked the court whether Trump’s declassification should be taken to mean that the records sought are now declassified.

“The president’s recent statements on Twitter referencing the ‘declassification’ of information were not an order to the Department of Justice to declassify the materials in this case,” the Justice Department told the court. “The Twitter statements do not constitute a self-executing declassification order.”

The FBI finished processing and redacting over 4,000 pages of typewritten interview summaries from the Mueller investigation on Oct. 1, according to the filing. On Oct. 6, Trump sent a pair of tweets suggesting that he has ordered the declassification of all Russia-probe and Clinton-email records with “no redactions.”

“I have fully authorized the total Declassification of any & all documents pertaining to the single greatest political CRIME in American History, the Russia Hoax. Likewise, the Hillary Clinton Email Scandal. No redactions!” the president wrote.https://platform.twitter.com/embed/index.html?creatorScreenName=ivanpentchoukov&dnt=true&embedId=twitter-widget-0&frame=false&hideCard=false&hideThread=false&id=1313640512025513984&lang=en&origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theepochtimes.com%2Ftrumps-tweet-didnt-declassify-anything-white-house-says_3538683.html&siteScreenName=EpochTimes&theme=light&widgetsVersion=ed20a2b%3A1601588405575&width=550px

“All Russia Hoax Scandal information was Declassified by me long ago. Unfortunately for our Country, people have acted very slowly, especially since it is perhaps the biggest political crime in the history of our Country. Act!!!”

Despite the president’s statements, the Department of Justice and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence in subsequent days released several heavily redacted documents related to the Russia probe.

Two days after the tweets, the plaintiffs in the FOIA lawsuit—Buzzfeed and CNN—filed an emergency motion arguing that the president’s statements entitled them to the information they sought. The court ordered the government to explain if this is the case and to “confer with the White House in order to advise the court as to the White House’s official position regarding the declassification and release to the public of information related to the Russia investigation.”

The White House told the Justice Department that the president’s tweets “were not self-executing declassification orders and do not require the declassification of any particular documents,” according to a declaration filed with the government’s response.

“The department was further informed that the president’s statements on Twitter do no require altering any redactions on any record at issue in this case,” the declaration states.

Trump has for years lambasted the FBI’s investigation of his campaign, which evolved into the Mueller inquiry. As part of the investigation, the FBI sent spies to target members of the campaign and obtained an intrusive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant on a former campaign adviser. The FISA applications were riddled with errors and omissions implicating the entire chain of command at the bureau, according to the Department of Justice Office of Inspector General. In obtaining the warrants, the bureau used an unverified dossier compiled by a British ex-spy who was ultimately paid by the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign.

The FBI investigation was also clouded by an anti-Trump bias among key FBI officials involved, including Deputy Assistant Director Peter Strzok and FBI attorney Lisa Page, who texted about stopping Trump from becoming president and an “insurance policy” in the unlikely event he won the election.

Despite a myriad of malfeasance, many of the underlying records remain either partly classified or have not yet been released, making it impossible for the public to judge the full context of what occurred. The redactions and selective declassifications have also fueled criticism from the president’s opponents. Former CIA Director John Brennan on Oct. 6 accused the Trump administration of selectively declassifying agency records for political gain.

“It is appalling his selective declassification of information that clearly is designed to advance the political interests of Donald Trump and Republicans who are aligned with him,” Brennan told CNN.

Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, at the direction of the president, on Oct. 6 released two pages of heavily redacted handwritten notes (pdf) taken by Brennan on a briefing he provided to President Barack Obama in late July 2016.

Brennan’s notes describe an intercept of Russian intelligence claiming that Hillary Clinton approved a plan to stir up a scandal about then-candidate Donald Trump by linking the Trump campaign and the alleged Russian hack of the Democratic National Committee.

Alongside the notes, the DNI released a heavily redacted three-page memo (pdf) dated Sept. 7, 2016 from the CIA to the FBI which stated that Clinton’s plan was meant to distract the public from the Clinton-email scandal.

The vast majority of both documents was blacked out prior to release, blocking any efforts to ascertain the full context of the portions released to the public.Follow Ivan on Twitter: @ivanpentchoukov

Steve Bullock, Very Bad For Montana,


SUPER PAC Money is Pouring in to Montana

Big money from out of state donors and super pacs is pouring into Montana. The Democrats, flush with cash from Big Tech and Wall Street, are flooding Montana with their propaganda.  Montana’s senator Steve Daines is up for re-election and DC Democrats hope to pick up his senate seat by running failed Governor Steve Bullock.

Bullock dances to Pelosi’s tune and likes to pretend he’s a Montanan.  Montana is tired of Bullock and his mask mandates and higher taxes.  Just another DC Democrat wolf in sheep’s plaid clothing.

Bullock has displayed a hostility toward women. According to the NRSC:

  • Gov. Angela McLean, who Bullock forced out of her job
  • Kevin O’Brien’s victims, who Bullock didn’t speak out about, allowing for O’Brien to take another job only to harass again
  • Meg O’Leary, who was Bullock’s Commerce Director and allegedly had a relationship with the governor
  • Wendie Fredrickson, who was a former state employee that was pushed out of her job because she raised concerns about fraud
  • George Washington University student, who alleged Bullock grabbed her butt at a Democrat gala in Washington, DC
  • Elsie Arntzen, who is Montana’s female Superintendent of Public Instruction who has alleged that Bullock is unwilling to work with her because she is a female
  • The women in Bullock’s office, who he only pays 84 cents for every dollar he pays men, despite repeatedly celebrating “Women’s Equality Day.”

And the most recent controversy  was Steve Bullock coming out in favor of  packing  the Supreme Court in his recent debate with Senator Daines.

A recent poll released last week put Daines ahead by 9 points over Bullock. We predict after Bullock’s Court packing faux pas, Daines lead will increase.

In 2016 Montana gave Trump a 20 point win over Clinton, we expect things to stay the same in Montana and Trump will win the state once again. Let’s keep Senator Daines in his seat and send Bullock packing …and we don’t mean the court!

CBS Obtains 94-Page Outline Showing FBI and Chris Steele Collaborative Use of Media Reporting…


Posted originally on The Conservative Tree House on October 12, 2020 by sundance

CBS News Catherine Herridge has obtained a 94-page spread sheet (pdf here) showing dates of media reports, dates of Steele reports on the same material, and the FBI effort to verify or validate the circular process.   In essence this is evidence of the process we initially shared almost three years ago; only now we know the names.

Former SSCI staffer Dan Jones, former Wall Street Journal reporter Glenn Simpson, and Simpson’s crew at Fusion-GPS, pitched and planted phony Trump-Russia evidence with the media and simultaneously gave those fake points to Chris Steele to supplement the dossier.  Using the same method of Ezra Klein’s “JournOList” replication, Dan Jones and Fusion-GPS paid the journalists to run the stories.

…”media reports on FBI reports of media reports”…

Steele then used the same information from Jones and Fusion in his Dossier and cited the planted media reports; as evidence to substantiate.  The Dossier is then provided to the FBI.  The journalists then provide *indulgences* to the FBI as part of the collaboration.

The FBI, specifically Lisa Page, Peter Strzok and public information office Mike Kortan, then leak the outcomes of the FBI Dossier investigative processes to the same media that have reported on the originating material.   It is all a big circle of planting and laundering the same originating false material; aka a “wrap up smear.”

Here’s the 94-page spread sheet:

.Michael Isikoff highlighted the level of how enmeshed media is with the Fusion team in February 2018 when he admitted his reporting was being used by the DOJ and FBI to advance the political objectives of the intelligence community.

Additionally, FBI investigator Peter Strzok and FBI attorney Lisa Page were shown in their text messages to be leaking stories from the Clinton Investigation, the Trump investigation and the Mueller investigation to journalists at Politico, The Wall Street Journal and Washington Post. –SEE HERE

FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe was busted by the Inspector General leaking stories to the media and then lying about it to INSD and IG investigators. FBI Director James Comey admitted to leaking stories to the New York Times, and even hired his friend Andrew Richman (off-the-books), gave him access to FBI and NSA databases, and then leaked information to Richman along with another friend Benjamin Wittes at Lawfare blog.

Lest we forget, the IG report on how the FBI handled the Clinton investigation revealed that dozens of FBI officials were actually taking bribes from the media for information:

IG REPORT – We identified numerous FBI employees, at all levels of the organization and with no official reason to be in contact with the media, who were nevertheless in frequent contact with reporters. Attached to this report as Attachments E and F are two link charts that reflect the volume of communications that we identified between FBI employees and media representatives in April/May and October 2016. We have profound concerns about the volume and extent of unauthorized media contacts by FBI personnel that we have uncovered during our review.

[…] We do not believe the problem is with the FBI’s policy, which we found to be clear and unambiguous. Rather, we concluded that these leaks highlight the need to change what appears to be a cultural attitude among many in the organization. (link to pdf – page Xii of executive summary)

Madness.

This is an IG fact-based criticism of the institution of the FBI, not simply a few rogue officials within it.

But wait…. Perspective:

Later it was revealed that Andrew Weissman, Robert Mueller’s #1 special counsel prosecutor, was coordinating investigative efforts with the full support of four AP reporters who were giving Weissman tips.  That’s information from journalists to use in his court filings and submitted search warrants.  Make sure you grasp this: The AP journalists were feeding information to their ideological allies within the special counsel.

Nuts; simply, well, nuts.

And then there’s Devlin Barrett, Lisa Page and Peter Strzok:

(Source Link – pdf Page #5)

Additionally, Christopher Steele has stated in U.K. court records the person in charge of the Clinton Campaign’s opposition research firm, Glenn Simpson from Fusion GPS, arranged and coordinated for Mr. Steele to talk to several journalists (CNN, The New York Times, The Washington Post, Yahoo News and Mother Jones) while Mr. Steele was also the primary source of information for the FBI investigators (including Strzok and Page):

(Source – page #8)

Make sure you read that full response from Christopher Steele above to see the scope of the media engagements he was conducting.

As more evidence surfaces the relationship between journalists, Fusion-GPS, Chris Steele and the media’s DOJ/FBI sources begins blending together. The FBI was using media reports, which were based on Fusion-GPS pitches, to bolster its investigative documents to the FISA court. It is an intelligence laundry operation:

According to the U.K records, Christopher Steele reports this September 2016 meeting with Isikoff was arranged by Glenn Simpson. According to Michael Isikoff on his February podcast, he met Christopher Steele at a Washington, D.C. hotel in Sept. 2016. They were joined by his “old friend” Glenn Simpson, the founder of opposition research firm Fusion GPS, who Isikoff now defines as a “private investigator.”

So Christopher Steele was meeting with journalists, the journalists were writing articles; the FBI was leaking to media and simultaneously citing those same articles as underlying evidence to support their counterintelligence investigations; and all of this was used to validate the investigative documents the FBI was receiving from Christopher Steele; who, along with the leaking FBI officials, was also the source of the media articles.

FUBAR! This is exponentially bonkers.

This is a circle of information, all coming from Dan Jones and Glenn Simpson at Fusion GPS, who was the opposition research firm being financed by Hillary Clinton, along with FBI officials who were using their own strategic leaks to validate their own investigation.

Think about the scale of the reporting, and reporting on reporting, of anonymous leaks, false leaks, lies from “people with knowledge of the matter”, “government officials involved in the matter”, “people familiar with the matter”, “government sources” etc. all going in one unified and semi-coordinated direction – against the aggregate Trump administration.

Now, it actually gets even more convoluted.

Christopher Steele has sworn under oath that he met with multiple journalists (at least eight organizations) in September, mid-October, and late-October 2016: “at Fusion’s instruction“. (pdf page #7)

Overlay upon that sworn admission with what Glenn Simpson (Fusion-GPS) told the House Intelligence Committee while also under oath about his involvement in sharing information derived from Christopher Steele:

(Testimony – pdf link, page #147)

…”without my knowledge and against my wishes”?

Huh?

FBI Director James Comey admits to leaking his ‘memos’ to the New York Times. FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe was busted for leaking and lying about it. FBI #2 Counterintelligence Agent Peter Strzok and FBI Attorney Lisa Page are caught in their text messages leaking to Politico, The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post.

…. AND the FBI is caught, in at least one FISA application, using Yahoo media reports provided by them AND their investigative source Christopher Steele to establish a basis for FISA “Title I” surveillance; the most intrusive and wide-open search and surveillance authority possible.

The Clinton Campaign is paying Fusion-GPS to conduct opposition research against Donald Trump. In addition to the collaboration between Dan Jones, Glenn Simpson pushed that opposition research into the media, and Fusion GPS is also providing that opposition research –including information from contacts with media– directly to the FBI:

(pdf link – page #4)

… In addition to using the Fusion-GPS opposition research to underpin their counterintelligence investigation, the FBI then turn around and leak the same opposition research information to the media to create secondary support for their counterintelligence investigation.

Tell me again how the media can possibly write about this now?

The problem is not just corruption with the U.S. Justice System, the DOJ and the FBI; the problem is corruption within the media.

We’re talking about thousands of hours of media TV pundits, thousands more columns written, and almost every scintilla of it based on originating intelligence sources -from the larger intelligence system- that are now being exposed as duplicitous and conspiratorial in the scale of their malicious intent.

This larger story-line has traveled in one direction. The narrative has only traveled in one direction. Each thread converging on codependent trails for collective stories all going in one direction. One big engineered narrative endlessly pushed. Think about how far the collective media have traveled with this story over the past eighteen months?

Hell, twenty-something-year-old “journalists” were so committed to the resistance narrative they were even sleeping with their sources to get any little engineering angle possible.

Now, over a period of several years, it has become increasingly obvious the collective journey, using all that expended effort, was intentionally going in the wrong direction.

The media have fully invested themselves in four months of narrative distribution in only one direction. Not a single MSM entity has questioned their travel as a result of false leaks or false sources in the totality of time they have covered the DOJ and FBI story.  They have even won Pulitzer prizes for writing stories about the lies and manufactured evidence.

Nothing within their collective need to will-an-outcome will change the media’s proximity to facts as the truthful story behind the DOJ and FBI corruption is finally exposed. The media are so far away from the place where this story ends, they have no inherent capability to even begin to travel in the opposite direction, toward the truth.

The only way they could align with the truth is to admit that virtually every scintilla of their reportage over the past four years was inherently false or manipulated by the “sources” distributing the material for their willfully blind reporting.

There’s not a single media outlet capable of doing that.

Think about a New York Times, CNN, New Yorker, Wall Street Journal, Mother Jones, Yahoo News or Washington Post journalist having to write an article deconstructing a foundation of four-years worth of lies they participated in creating.

Do we really think such a catastrophic level of corrupted journalism could reconstitute into genuine reporting of fact-based information?

EVER?

Impossible.

Kamala Harris Needs Teleprompter During Senate SCOTUS Hearing…


Posted originally on The Conservative Tree House on October 12, 2020 by sundance

Senator Kamala Harris chose to remain in her office just down the hall from the Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing today.  Oddly during her segment to deliver prepared remarks she relied on a teleprompter for the broadcast.   Senator Harris does not use a teleprompter well, and the effort was transparent.  Watch:

This is an example of how/why the DNC club control agents are pressuring for virtual debates.  Everything about the Harris-Biden ticket is a Potemkin village; both candidates are avatars, puppets, for the big club control agents behind the curtain.

Death By Idea!


There was a recent ‘patriot rally’ in Denver. Early reports claim Matthew Dolloff was hired as a security guard for a Denver TV station that was covering the event. An altercation took place between Dolloff and a Trump supporter. My guess is they exchanged some cross words and it escalated to a slap and a shove, followed by the victim spraying mace at Dolloff. Nearly in the same instant, Dolloff pulled a pistol and shot his adversary dead on the spot. Dolloff wasn’t wearing a guard uniform, nor was it obvious he was packing.

As it turns out, Dolloff was neither licensed nor qualified to be a security guard. He probably wasn’t licensed for concealed carry. We saw that Dolloff was sporting a ‘Space Invaders’ tattoo on his right wrist. Such a marking is associated with Antifa. He was a Bernie supporter and registered Democrat Socialist. The leftist mass media came out and said Dolloff was not associated with Antifa, but we’re now learning this may not be true. The lying media jumps to too many conclusions that align with their political agenda. For example, they blamed Trump for inspiring the conspirators who wanted to kidnap Michigan’s Governor Whitmer, when several in the conspiracy did not support the president and sympathized with the radical left.

Joe Biden does not want to lose his progressive, far-left Antifa supporters. He recently deflected criticism aimed at the Antifa and said it was an idea and not an organization. It is indeed an organization, if loosely-knit, and many of its followers are not afraid to commit acts of violence. The corrupt mass media continually gives them a pass and refers to them as ‘peaceful protestors.’ It will be difficult for them to justify the shooting of someone on the right, but they’ll try. I wouldn’t be surprised if Dolloff is released. One has to wonder what would be happening right now had Dolloff been a Trump supporter and his victim a black ‘BLM’ member.

FBI Director Chris Wray also stated that antifa is an ideology, not an organization…thereby contradicting President Trump who wanted it designated as a terrorist organization. Wray is a Deep State operative and should be fired.

As for Biden, he needs to be defeated.

The Debate Is Over About The Biased Commission


Moderators are biased, distracting, and unnecessary. After the disastrous results of the 2020 debates, this kind of unwelcome interference can no longer be tolerated. The Republican presidential candidates deserve better, but, more importantly, so do

Commission on Presidential DebatesEver since the formation of the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) in 1987, there has been incredible bias against Republican candidates. The moderators and format have always favored the Democratic presidential candidates. Thus, it has been incredibly foolish for GOP presidential candidates to agree to participate in such an unfair process.

Once again, this year, the Trump campaign allowed the CPD to schedule and organize four debates, three involving the presidential candidates and one featuring the vice-presidential candidates. Not surprisingly, all the moderators selected were unabashed liberals.

The first presidential debate was a fiasco

The first presidential debate was a fiasco. It was moderated by the long-time liberal Fox News anchor Chris Wallace. He embarrassed himself with a stunningly biased performance. He interrupted President Donald Trump 76 times, as opposed to only 15 interruptions of former Vice President Joe Biden. The questions were slanted towards Biden and the only tough questions were directed at President Trump.

llace interjected almost every talking point for the Democrats. He asked about old issues such as the 2017 Charlottesville, VA rally and demanded that the President once again condemn white supremacists. Even though all the riots in 2020 were led by radical leftist organizations like Antifa and Black Lives Matter, Wallace was uninterested in discussing it.

Instead, he wanted to explore issues such as Covid-19, climate change, and anything that could possibly be detrimental to President Trump. Of course, Biden received a pass on his son’s questionable consulting contracts, his interference in prosecutions in Ukraine, his friendship with white supremacist Democrats in the United States Senate, his “manifesto” with radical socialists in the Democratic Party, his constant flip-flopping, his lack of law enforcement endorsements and his delay in condemning the Antifa riots.

The vice-presidential debate was not much better as liberal moderator Susan Page of USA Today showed her bias with her questions and her treatment of the two candidates.

The next presidential debate was supposed to be moderated by liberal Steve Scully of C-SPAN. Yet, his ideological preferences are easy to determine by looking at his resume. Scully once served as an intern to Biden when he was a U.S. Senator representing Delaware and was a staff assistant to former U.S. Senator Ted Kennedy (D-MA). Clearly, his work for two liberal United States Senators shows that Scully is not impartial.https://lockerdome.com/lad/11136804967644006?pubid=ld-11136804967644006-671&pubo=https%3A%2F%2Fcanadafreepress.com&rid=canadafreepress.com&width=336

Thankfully, the second Trump-Biden debate has been canceled

He also was pictured at the “Biden Beach Bash ‘16” with his arm around the former Vice President, tweeting “Gotta love the @VP.” This week, it was reported that Scully sent a tweet to Trump hater Anthony Scaramucci asking him how to respond to the President. While Scully claimed his Twitter account was hacked, an FBI investigation is not needed to determine his clear bias.

Thankfully, the second Trump-Biden debate has been canceled. The President rightfully declined to participate in a virtual debate, which was unilaterally announced by the CPD without consultation with either candidate. The CPD was supposedly worried about exposing the debate audience and the staff to President Trump, who has recovered from Covid-19. Despite the President’s doctors clearing the President to participate in events and his lack of symptoms, the CPD wanted to force a virtual debate on the American people.

Such a debate would have been a joke. Biden would have had a teleprompter with coaching from his aides. The President would have had his microphone easily turned off and it would have been difficult to connect with a town hall audience.

Currently, there is one more Trump-Biden debate scheduled on October 22 in Nashville. Another liberal reporter, Kristen Welker of NBC News, was selected to serve as moderator. To prevent embarrassment, Welker has already erased her Twitter account, undoubtedly, to prevent her liberal tweets from being uncovered. If the debate occurs, she will show her bias against Trump with her questions and treatment of the candidates.

The President should probably participate because it will be an opportunity to reach a large group of voters. The first debate achieved an audience of 73.1 million Americans. The final debate may reach an even greater audience. In addition, the President is accustomed to battling multiple foes at one time. He did it during the 2016 debates and he does it every time he conducts a press conference.

Going forward, the problem with the CPD must be addressed. While it is advertised as being impartial, it is composed of Democrats and Trump-hating Republicans. This week, 1996 GOP presidential candidate, former U.S. Senator Bob Dole (R-KS), identified the real problem with the CPD. He tweeted, “The Commission on Presidential Debates is supposedly bipartisan w/ an equal number of Rs and Ds. I know all of the Republicans and most are friends of mine. I am concerned that none of them support @realDonaldTrump. A biased Debate Commission is unfair.”

Well done Bob Dole! The CPD is totally unfair and should be scrapped. If it refuses to disband, the GOP should disavow any future affiliation and withdraw from working with the CPD, a total sham of an organization.

Future presidential debates do not need a liberal moderator pretending to be fair, but truly working in a feverish manner to help the Democratic nominee. Both candidates should participate in a Lincoln/Douglas style debate with equal time for each of them.

Moderators are biased, distracting, and unnecessary. After the disastrous results of the 2020 debates, this kind of unwelcome interference can no longer be tolerated. The Republican presidential candidates deserve better, but, more importantly, so do the voters of America.

Alarm bells sounding for Biden, Schumer and Pelosi


The messages being delivered by the voters are sounding the alarm bells for Biden, Schumer and Pelosi but they are apparently not listening

Alarm bells sounding for Biden, Schumer and PelosiBeware those polls predicting a Biden win and the Democrats gaining control of the Congress—rather than those polls seeking answers to specific issues which indicate a Trump win and Republican control of the Congress more likely.

The responses to three questions asked in the September 14-28 Gallup poll should concern Biden.

Gallup Poll

  • On the question of “personality and leadership qualities a president should have”:

    Not unexpected.

    President Trump is a businessman and a deal maker—not a career politician like his opponent Joe Biden. Trump runs the country like a big business. The speed and frequency of his decisions contrast with the slow and ponderous ways of the Washington bureaucracy and previous Presidents.

    Two examples: 
    1. Closing America’s borders on January 31, 2020 to flights emanating from China—to arrest the spread of Covid 19—Biden accusing Trump that same day of “hysterical xenophobia—and fearmongering to lead the way instead of science.”
    2. Opening the American Embassy in Jerusalem on May 14, 2018—when all Presidents before him failed to do so after the Jerusalem Embassy Act 1995—adopted by the Senate (93–5), and the House (374–37)—had specifically given them that authority.  
  • On the question of “agree or disagree with (Donald Trump/Joe Biden) on the issues that matter to you most”:

    This result is bad news for Biden/ Democratic Party camp. 

    Trump’s lack of personality and leadership qualities as a president has not stopped a majority of the responders acknowledging Trump has handled issues of concern to them to their satisfaction. Voters will forgive Trump’s personal Presidential failings because he cares more about their issues than a Presidential-looking Biden.

A Biden win looks increasingly unlikely after voters were asked: “Whether They’re Better Or Worse Off Than Four Years Ago”. (See following window)

Gallup Poll
  • 56% consider themselves better off in 2020 than in 2016—after Biden had then been their Vice President for the previous 8 years. 
  • The responders had lived through the unprecedented Covid 19 pandemic for nine months that had threatened to destroy their own hopes and dreams of being better off than four years ago. 

Statista’s poll has ominous consequences for Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi regarding the elections for Congress—the House of Representatives and the Senate.

Statista puts the disapproval rating of the United States Congress at 80%—the highest disapproval rating in the past 12 months (See following Window):

Statista

It should be noted this 80% disapproval rate:

  • increased from 68% in December 2019—when House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was still considering whether to impeach President Trump on charges of abuse of power and obstruction—to 74% in February 2020 after Trump had been found not guilty by the Senate
  • is likely to shoot even higher as: 
    1. the Senate begins its confirmation hearings into appointing Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court—which the Democrats will oppose 
    2. Pelosi moves to establish a process to effectively give Congress a say in removing a president from office under the 25th Amendment of the Constitution—which the Republicans will oppose 
    3. Trumps’ offer of $1.8 trillion in a renewed search for an economic relief deal is being rejected by Pelosi
    4. Senate Minority leader Schumer threatens to replace the filibuster, pack the Supreme Court and create two new states Puerto Rico and Washington DC. 

Biden’s accomplishments over 47 years—8 as Vice President—pale in comparison to what Trump has achieved in 4 years

The messages being delivered by the voters are sounding the alarm bells for Biden, Schumer and Pelosi but they are apparently not listening.
