Disapproval of Trump the person doesn't necessarily translate to a dip in Job approval.

@Imabench
Hasn't Trumps disapproval ratings always been pretty shit though throughout his entire presidency? I think from the moment he entered office people still werent willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and kept his approval down in the 40's, which is surprising since most presidents usually get a 'honeymoon' period for a couple of months with their overall approval ratings somewhere in the 60's
Yeah, in fact if you polled alot of people after Nov, 2016 who voted for Trump, you would find that a good portion of them hated the guy, especially hated his tweeting, but loved his policies.

The idea that there is something genetically different from the people on the right has directly led to unaccountable abuses of power from the left.
And Hillary.

Here is a hint, people who don't have paranoia issues don't ever describe people as "constant"
I have really no idea what your mental issues are dude.

Let's take a case in point of a famous political "lie."
On Nov. 4, 2013, Obama claimed that "what we said was, you can keep (your plan) if it hasn’t changed since the law passed"
But Obama in a weekly address on June 6, 2009, said "If you like the plan you have, you can keep it. If you like the doctor you have, you can keep your doctor, too. The only change you’ll see are falling costs as our reforms take hold."
Now a demagogue would immediately declare the 2009 statement a lie, instead of checking to see if Obama was simply misinformed.
Politifact declared the 2009 statement half true and the 2013 statement completely false. The reason for that is enough years went by for Obama to reasonably be informed that people were not going to be able to keep their health insurance. Because Obama couldn't be reasonably misinformed after 4 years, he was most likely deliberately lying to deceive the people.
This example probably means nothing to a demagogue such as yourself, but your continued leaps calling people you don't agree with liars, racists, whatever... with no real reason to assume they are not simply misinformed... is the tired old demagoguery dogma that isn't going to be popular much longer in America.
I don't even think you are conscious of what you do when you take these mental leaps. To you, it just seems automatic that logically there are liars and truth-tellers and nothing in between. That is the mind of a scientist.
In the real world, everybody is not out to deceive you on purpose. if you have lost your faith in humanity to such a degree that you would assume all misinformed people MUST be deceitful liars out to get you, then I will pray to the flying spaghetti monster that you find some peace in the end.

I also find it interesting that your keyboard warrior skills are so great as to be able to discern with 100% accuracy whether someone is a liar, or simply misinformed.
That is the clarion-call of a true demagogue. No dog whistles needed.

Historically, demagoguery ensures 2 parties remain in power. Just look at the history of dem's and republican's demagoguery. It's a proven strategy to attain power and survival.

@Speedrace
It's not a perfect strategy, but the info we give today will help direct the decisions of the blue and red killers to kill the yellow team.
Best case scenario is all of the yellow team dies by tomorrow. (I'm not a nonyellow killer)
Of course yellow killer will kill me for starting this, but yolo bitch...FOR TEAM NOTYELLOW!

This strategy is much more at directing the blue and red killers to eliminate the remaining 2 yellow players after we lynch one of the 3 yelow players.

If we can get 2 or 3 people to claim NOT YELLOW we can eliminate 1 team on the 1st night.

Clearly, anyone who votes for me or wylted is on the yellow team, and should be swiftly eliminated.

Spare us with extreme words like "whenever" "every" and "all'
Demagoguery is a fading fad in America. Might get traction in other countries though.

Case in point. You are another of those demagogues who flippantly tosses buzzwords like "every" and "all" with no meaning behind them.

Given that you seem to be also unaware of a majority of major right wing terrorist events in the last 4 years, including Dylan roof, and the shooting less than a week ago: it seems your position is based on what you want to believe is true, rather than what is actually true.
I wouldn't defend the demagoguery of political wings to adequately explain the rise of crazy suicidal people.
That smacks of a pandering politician demonizing deplorables.
