NBC: 'A deep and boiling anger': NBC/WSJ poll finds a pessimistic America despite current economic satisfaction

A new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll finds that 70 percent of Americans say they're angry at the political establishment.

WASHINGTON — The political and cultural upheaval of the last four years has divided the country on ever-hardening partisan and generational lines, but one feeling unites Americans as much as it did before the 2016 election.

They’re still angry. And still unsettled about the future.

The latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll finds that — despite Americans’ overall satisfaction with the state of the U.S. economy and their own personal finances — a majority say they are angry at the nation’s political and financial establishment, anxious about its economic future, and pessimistic about the country they’re leaving for the next generation.

America, not just America however, are on a downward spiral and the economy is set to crash as a result of out of control spiralling debt. It isn't going to sustain itself, and when it does happen, it will be an economic armageddon.

The Media has a lot to do about this; on one hand they expose, for profit, the inner workings of the Washington political class which we see as disgusting. On the other, they put class, race, sex, party and age against each other so they can report on all the chaos. Therefore, they (the Media) should be punished for their deeds and they should loose some rights.

Anger sells
CNN is pure anger and hatred
MSNBC is outrage, virtue signalling
FOX is a bit better than the rest, but they too sell sad & bad news, just like any news outlet

People get sick because they have 2 choices:

a. get dumb and watch cnn & scroll facebook all day
b. go to other places and discuss with people, rather than endless scrolling & liking & outrage machinery @ twitter/cnn/facebook

Obama pivoted to Asia to confront China.

Which means his minions put out a press release.

There was no actual there there.


DJT actually confronts China and the liberals piss & moan.
