One-third of Americans who voted for President-elect Donald Trump said they chose him because of his business acumen or economic vision, a new poll reveals.

Thirty-three percent of Trump voters said, in their own words, they voted for him because of the “economy” or because “he is a good businessman,” a Washington Post-Schar School poll released Friday reveals.:whoa:

“He is a good businessman and doesn’t let anyone take advantage of him,” one Trump voter from Wisconsin told pollsters.

“The economy was at a better place when he was in office,” another Trump supporter from Arizona said.

But Trump’s record as a businessman isn’t exactly pristine.

Earlier this year, a unanimous jury found Trump guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records in connection with payments to silence adult film star Stormy Daniels, whose story about having sex with the now-president-elect threatened to derail his 2016 presidential campaign.

New York Justice Juan Merchan refused to throw out the conviction on Monday after a request from Trump’s lawyer, prompting the president-elect to lash out on Truth Social.

“Merchan, who is a radical partisan, wrote an opinion that is knowingly unlawful, goes against our Constitution, and, if allowed to stand, would be the end of the Presidency as we know it,” Trump wrote.

Trump is also barred from serving as an officer or director of any corporation in New York for the next three years after Judge Arthur Engoron ruled the Trump Organization violated the state’s fraud laws. Trump and his company owe more than $400 million in fines as a result. His two sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, are under the same ban for two years.

During Trump’s first term, his tax cuts did not deliver the growth he promised, his budget deficits rose and his tariffs failed to increase factory jobs in the U.S., the Associated Press reported.

As he readies a return to the White House, Trump has said that Canada and Mexico could see a 25 percent tariff added to all imported goods while China could face an additional 10 percent during his second term. He claims this is part of an effort to curtail “crime and drugs” coming into the country and slow the number of illegal border crossings.

Trump also said he told European Union officials they must purchase more oil and gas from the U.S. or he will hit them with tariffs.

Several economists say these proposed policies could trigger disaster for consumers. Daan Struyven, head of commodities research at Goldman Sachs, said last month the tariffscould in theory lead to some pretty significant consequences for three groups of people: US consumers, US refiners, and Canadian producers.”

George Washington University economics professor Tara Sinclair previously told The Independent she has similar concerns.

“Tariffs would likely be a higher tax on consumers – U.S. consumers,” Sinclair said. “This idea that those tariffs would somehow be magically paid by the foreign companies and wouldn’t be passed through American consumers does not seem to stand out empirically in the data.”

Meanwhile, Trump and his team have defended the tariff proposals.

““In his first term, President Trump instituted tariffs against China that created jobs, spurred investment, and resulted in no inflation,” spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said in a previous statemtn to The Independent. “President Trump will work quickly to fix and restore an economy that puts American workers by re-shoring American jobs, lowering inflation, raising real wages, lowering taxes, cutting regulations, and unshackling American energy.”

The Washington Post-Schar School poll also revealed that 17 percent of Trump voters chose him because he was the “best candidate” or because they thought he had “better policies.”

Another 16 percent said they chose Trump because they opposed his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, President Joe Biden and/or the Democratic party.

The public is largely a bunch of low-minded imbeciles.

Too busy paying attention to crap like football and garbage TV shows to pay attention to what's going on with the people who want to be given the power to affect their lives.
 
Building is much more difficult than destroying, the Modern Morons not only do not properly appreciate what their ancestors build, they have no ability to do what their ancestors did.

Too many Americans are both poorly educated and susceptible to fearmongering. Trump's greatest talent is salesmanship, and those Americans fell for the sales pitch.
 
One-third of Americans who voted for President-elect Donald Trump said they chose him because of his business acumen or economic vision, a new poll reveals.
Which is funny since all the other "polls" say that the vast majority of Americans who voted for President-elect Donald Trump did so because he clearly knows how to bring about financial success.

But Trump’s record as a businessman isn’t exactly pristine.
This is where you dig a hole for yourself.

What do Reggie Jackson, Jim Thome, Adam Dunn, Sammy Sosa, Alex Rodriguez, Miguel Cabrera, Andrés Galarraga, Justin Upton, Giancarlo Stanton and José Canseco have in common? Exactly right! They are the MLB career record holders for striking out.

Have you ever heard of Jerry Rice, the legendary, Hall of Famer, many-time-Pro-Bowler, Superbowl MVP, multiple-prestigious-NFL-record-holding 49'er? Using your wording, "his record as a wide receiver isn't exactly pristine." After all, he holds the league record for the most dropped passes.

I can't wait to hear your argument about Trump

Earlier this year, a unanimous jury found Trump guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records in connection with payments to silence adult film star Stormy Daniels, whose story about having sex with the now-president-elect threatened to derail his 2016 presidential campaign.
So leftists are absolutely clinging to the one rigged, unfair court case that hasn't crumbled. We the People don't recognize any of these convictions, even if a rigged court does. Please tell me that your argument doesn't rest solely on this travesty of justice.

“Merchan, who is a radical partisan, wrote an opinion that is knowingly unlawful, goes against our Constitution, and, if allowed to stand, would be the end of the Presidency as we know it,” Trump wrote.
Donald Trump is correct.

Trump is also barred from serving as an officer or director of any corporation in New York for the next three years after Judge Arthur Engoron ruled the Trump Organization violated the state’s fraud laws.
The judge, Juan Merchan, and the DA, Alvin Bragg, should be impeached and booted.

Trump and his company owe more than $400 million in fines as a result.
This needs to be reversed, otherwise it will be the end of the Presidency as we know it.

His two sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, are under the same ban for two years.
Great, punishing someone for the accusation against someone else. I hope Merchan and Bragg receive fitting punishments for this brazen prosecutorial overreach. Fuck 'em.

During Trump’s first term, his tax cuts did not deliver the growth he promised
Trump's tax cuts exceded expectations.

, his budget deficits rose
The President has no budget deficits. You need to learn about the US government.

and his tariffs failed to increase factory jobs in the U.S., the Associated Press reported.
The AP? Dismissed.

He claims this is part of an effort to curtail “crime and drugs” coming into the country and slow the number of illegal border crossings.
Nope. He claims that this is necessary to curtail unfair trade practices. Get your lies straight.

Trump also said he told European Union officials they must purchase more oil and gas from the U.S. or he will hit them with tariffs.
You're leaving out about 80% of the key details. You are lying by omission.

Several economists
Quacks who don't know what they're talking about?

say these proposed policies could trigger disaster for consumers.
Aaaah, fear mongering and panic peddling! Gotta love it.

Daan Struyven, head of commodities research at Goldman Sachs, said last month the tariffscould in theory lead to some pretty significant consequences for three groups of people: US consumers, US refiners, and Canadian producers.”
Well, he didn't need to get that specific on the consequences.

George Washington University economics professor Tara Sinclair previously told The Independent she has similar concerns.
Well, you know if Tara has concerns, we need to pull a full-180 right now. Redo the election! Tara Sinclair has concerns!

“Tariffs would likely be a higher tax on consumers
Tariffs are not a tax on consumers. Shouldn't an economics professor know this?

Meanwhile, Trump and his team have defended the tariff proposals.
... as do all rational American adults who want to make America great again.

““In his first term, President Trump instituted tariffs against China that created jobs, spurred investment, and resulted in no inflation,” spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said in a previous statemtn to The Independent. “President Trump will work quickly to fix and restore an economy that puts American workers by re-shoring American jobs, lowering inflation, raising real wages, lowering taxes, cutting regulations, and unshackling American energy.”
That sounds about right.

The Washington Post-Schar School poll also revealed that 17 percent of Trump voters chose him because he was the “best candidate” or because they thought he had “better policies.”
Not difficult when considering Kamalala.

Another 16 percent said they chose Trump because they opposed his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris,
Now I know that this article is totally bogus. Every Trump voter opposed Kamalala.

Someone please explain to me why this isn't an example of insanity. TIA
 
He has no sense of direction.
Rudderless? A mind without the ability to perceive figure and ground?

One Gestalt principle is the figure-ground relationship. According to this principle, we tend to segment our visual world into figure and ground. Figure is the object or person that is the focus of the visual field, while the ground is the background.
 
It doesn't meet either the American Psychological Association's or the American Psychiatric Association's definition.
Wow, Sybil. Looks like that group therapy is paying off!

I guess if you run around screaming about how good you are at something eventually a large group of Americans will fall for it.
Note how attractive the poorly educated and/or fearful voters find the Party of Trump.

When Trump breaks most, if not all, of his campaign problems by this time next year and blames the Democrats, how many of these same voters will still fall for it?
