(2 thoughts : are the voices in the dem primary leading to more approving of Trump's term? And I do wonder whether they asked the "unpresidential" question in polls regarding the past Presidents.)
Poll: Trump's approval rating hits highest point of presidency
President Trump's approval rating has surged to the highest level of his presidency...
In addition, 65 percent of respondents said Trump has acted in an "unpresidential" way since taking office. Twenty-eight percent said he has acted in a "fitting and proper" way.

NYT Fake News. 60 years ago, the nytimes predicted an ice-free Arctic and ships sailing over the North Pole, within a generation. 50 years ago, they predicted an ice-free Arctic by 1989. It is now July, and there are no ships traversing the Arctic

People are using the "not a true journalist" line to excuse the violence against Andy Ngo. Think carefully before claiming journalists are a special class of people.

Let's take a quick sec to appreciate the fact that demands for government-provided health care, jobs, debt relief, housing, cash grants, etc. are coming from a party that used to say things like, "Ask not what your country can do for you — ask what you can do for your country."

Yesterday while documenting an Antifa riot in Portland, Andy Ngo — a gay, Asian, independent journalist — was brutally attacked by Antifa for “being a Nazi.”
