The 65% who say Trump’s policies have made the economy worse is the highest of his presidency, higher than the share who said the same about Democrat Joe Biden’s policies at any point during his time in office.


But surely the Grafty Economy is at an inflection point.... Around three-quarters of Americans say the US economy is in poor shape, up 8 points since January, with the share calling it “very poor” up 12 points. Roughly 6 in 10 say they expect the economy to be in poor condition a year from now, the highest share to say so during either of Trump’s presidencies.

YAHTZEE!

You cling to reasonable doubt like your character's immortal soul depends upon it.

@Blackvegetable  .......oh, never mind, it's there in the article...

Note: The latest CNN poll was conducted by SSRS from March 26-30 among a random national sample of 1,201 US adults drawn from a probability-based panel. Surveys were either conducted online or by telephone with a live interviewer. Results shown in this chart have a margin of sampling error of ±3.2 percentage points.

65% of 1,200 people = 780 people....That’s it. That’s the whole “65%” CNN is talking about. 780 respondents out of a country of 260 million adults. U have to B a Slack-Jawed cretin to act like this is even a serious/real poll.

Is this your thread?

You are extrapolating from a sample of ONE.
 

Prompt; Explain Statistical Sampling to a 5th grader....

Imagine you have a giant jar of 10,000 jellybeans and you want to know if most of them are cherry-flavored. You could count every single one, but that would take forever!

Statistical sampling is like taking one big scoop from that jar. [1] 
If you look at your scoop and see that almost all of those beans are red, you can make a really good guess that most of the beans in the whole jar are cherry too.

Here are the three simple rules to make it work: 

1. The Population: That’s the whole jar (the big group you’re curious about).   

2. The Sample: That’s your scoop (the small group you actually check).

3. Randomness: You have to close your eyes and stir the jar before you scoop. If you only took beans from the very top, your guess might be wrong! 

So, sampling is just looking at a small part to understand the whole thing without doing all the work.

Would you like to try a mini-experiment to see how this works with something in your house? [1] [https://medium.com](https://medium.com/@giraldiangela/the-a ... re%20batch!)

Plus they omitted the part of the sample which indicates % of party affiliation…

Trump’s overall approval rating has held relatively steady at 35%, one point off his all-time low in CNN polling. There’s been notable erosion, however, in his standing with his own partisans. The share of Republicans who strongly approve of his job performance has dropped to 43%, from 52% in January.


Trump’s economic approval rating is down 8 points overall since January and a larger 14 points among Republicans. Among Republicans younger than 45, the decline is an even more stark 23 points. And almost 3 in 10 Republicans (28%) say his policies have worsened economic conditions in the US, up from 13% who felt that way in January.

Ibid.

Yet, unlike the jellybeans, demographics can be in play…

Demographics play a significant role in opinion polls, as they help determine the composition of the sample and can influence the results based on factors like age, race, and socioeconomic status. Pollsters often weight their data to reflect the demographic makeup of the population to ensure accurate representation.
