At least someone gets it. These polls reflect what all American’s are thinking or feeling as a percentage of the whole. The polls have nothing to do with right or wrong
huh????

I was trained as a mathematician. I understand statistics and the branch known as polling. However you have completely misunderstood what I am typing .... which I find a bit incredible.

You reported a stat regarding the perception of the two major parties on how they "felt" about the other party. You reported about 30% (as I recollect) had the same opinion as the other i.e. they were destroying America. I was not disputing the stat, I was however disputing the underlying basis for those perceptions. I therefore asked you if there was a basis for that belief, and your response was since the polls report an equal percent saying the same thing, you concluded it was meaningless hyperbolic partisanship. My response was bull poohpooh.

My argument was there is a legitimate basis for the perception by Democrats Republicans are destroying America. which would refute your conclusion. There is a difference between Republicans saying Democrats are radical extremist socialists etc etc and Republicans diligently working on overthrowing an election, Republicans diligently working on fixing the next election, Republicans covering up an insurrection, Republicans etc etc.

I can't find Democrats working on anything which resembles what the Republicans are doing. I can therefore legitimately conclude Republicans are trying to destroy America. I can also legitimately conclude your belief is Republicans are just mean spirited and are not trying to destroy America. I think you typed something similar when I warned about Trump and the election. The basis for my statements has been the last 5 years and especially the last year as we now have access to records which corroborates my fears and when analyzed leads to the conclusion they are trying to destroy America.

You should note there is absolutely nothing in what was typed which in any way nullifies, denigrates, mitigates, or changes the polling number you reported.

So the question remains .... are Republicans trying to destroy America???


ignorance is the enemy
without equality there is no liberty
America can survive bad policy, but not destruction of our Democratic institutions
