The majority of U.S. citizens do not trust President Donald Trump to make wise decisions about nuclear weapons, according to the latest poll by a leading research center.
The Pew Research Center released Tuesday the results of a nationwide survey of people’s views toward Trump’s conduct and handling of his role as president, finding that 58 percent of respondents “don't like” the way the Republican leader has carried himself in office. The same percentage lack confidence in his ability to wield the world’s second largest nuclear weapons arsenal, especially as Trump garners controversy over his responses to nuclear-armed North Korea’s continued defiance of U.S. attempts to disarm the reclusive, Communist state.

WNU Editor: We are where we are today with North Korea because of poor decisions done by U.S. and other world leaders for the past few decades. President Trump is not the problem .... but he has certainly inherited a big one.
Agreed. We're in a worse position now than 10-20 years ago. All administrations failed in diplomatically convincing Pyongyang to give up its nuclear weapons program. The Iranian deal cannot be verified and parts remain secret. This sets a bad, bad set of precedents and every single dictator and terrorist group will triple their efforts to acquire as many as possible and as quickly as posSible. Unless north Korea can still be convinced to give it up. .but of course they will not. They are a nuclear power now and they won't give them up without a lot of bloodshed. :/
ReplyDeleteCountries SHOULD fear that the US president would be willing to use nuclear weapons. That's the point of them.
ReplyDeleteThere is always the refrain about how "things should have been done". I'd like to hear exactly what those "things" were that needed to be done or could have been done. Anyone?
ReplyDeleteall well and good to place blame on "the time before," but then what would you have done if president? And, that said, this poll is about trust in the current president, and not on who did what in the past. The American people elected a man they now do not trust. Simple as that, be it right or wrong in what they have decided
ReplyDeleteI do not fear Trump making bad decisions.
ReplyDeleteI fear the Clintons and the Democrats.
Can you believe that a Clinton lawyer made the following arguments?
"Gowen asked that Imran Awan’s GPS monitoring bracelet be removed, citing that Imran might need to attend to an emergency with his children. In a press conference outside court, Gowen admitted that the children are in Pakistan and refused to explain the discrepancy.
“His ability to parent, which may well be single parenting, if there is an emergency…” Gowen said.
He also asked for other restrictions on his movement to be lifted, saying he has been driving for Uber, but the company "

There is a chart of the Democrats Congress people involved in the scandal.

Dear Mr Smith
ReplyDeletewe know of course how bad, evil, wicked, ill informed the Dems are. You never fail to remind us of that. But the poll here referred to simply states that most Americans do not trust Trump.Simple as that.No need to deflect. Now you can argue that most Americans are too dumb to appreciate Trump; or argue that the poll was not done accurately; or argue that folks will change their mind. But, simply stated, the poll says most Americans do not trust Trump (though you clearly do).
"Can You Trust the Press?"
ReplyDeleteAround 3 million views.
Oh, I see. By reading an article about trust in the press, you distrust the press. OK.
"But the poll here referred to simply states that most Americans do not trust Trump.
ReplyDeleteSimple as that"
If it were so simple, then why did people before and after Goebbels warp the news?
People make decision about things based on the news they read.
GIGO
It seems to me that you are deflecting.
I bet you read the NYT.
The Press has different segments.
ReplyDeleteThere is the old mainstream press and there is the insurgent press.
The MSM considers people who are not them amateurs, who are not credential worthy and not worth listening to. So by establishment view, MSM view, the MSM is The Press.
Why are you here?
Why am I here?
Because we wanted a supplementary press or did not trust the MSM, period!
Please...speak for yourself and not for others. My views, and I suspect yours, are shaped by info from Wiki, MSM, TV news, magazines, the net...they feed on each other and share and reuse info...and then you and others impose your perspective on what you have read. Did you first learn of Trump poll here cited only here? And, if so, where did this poll come from? in this instance Pew and Newsweek
ReplyDelete"My views, and I suspect yours, are shaped by info from Wiki, MSM, TV news, magazines, the net..."
ReplyDeleteMy views do not come from the MSM.
"they feed on each other and share and reuse info..."
Explicitly that is called JournoList. Implicitly that is incestuous groupthink.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JournoList
"JournoList (sometimes referred to as the J-List)[1] was a private Google Groups forum for discussing politics and the news media with 400 "left-leaning"[2] journalists, academics and others. Ezra Klein created the online forum in February 2007 while blogging at The American Prospect and shut it down on June 25, 2010 amid wider public exposure"

"Did you first learn of Trump poll ..."
Polls are used to make news oftentimes
Polls are often "push polls".
I'll give an example. I'll find the psychological 'name' later.
"The Drive-By Media already has push polls out saying how much the American people hate it. They don’t even know about it yet, but our friends in the Drive-Bys have got a push poll out"
https://www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2017/06/22/senate-health-care-bill-preliminary-review-and-analysis/
Then again why would you believe in the concept of a 'push poll'. You probably do not believe in the Wilder effect (or its causes).
