I imagine Fox News polled a bunch of people outside a Republican convention.

And still only got 40% approval

All political polls are biased due to sampling bias.

The only ones that aren't are actual votes for government officials.

Quit being a douche.

It's a personal assessment. Take it or leave it. If you disagree don't just spout "source?" like you can't have a conversation on a video game website without it being a scholarly one.

How is me asking for you back up a claim unreasonable? You didn't say "Imo all political polls...", you stated it as if it was a fact. Would you rather I reply "You are wrong" and leave it at that?

Yes, because that would be the appropriate level of sincerity to match mine. Instead you acted like I was quoting a scholarly article, as if you never put your two cents in without first finding one. You go around posting "source?" because you like to pretend you're an educated authority in internet arguments without actually participating in them.

Oh, sorry, "in my opinion".

So I'm interpreting this post as you don't, in fact, have a source. Is that correct?

Making erroneous claims and then when others call you out just double down on the shitposting to own the libs.

It's actually the Rasmussen poll from like, a week ago, he's referencing:

https://twitter.com/Rasmussen_Poll/status/1056946262690299904

Which makes no sense whatsoever. According to them Trump has a 40% approval with blacks, and a 53% approval with white voters, yet only a 50% total approval rating. Which I'm pretty sure wouldn't be mathematically possible. Same poll also claims he has a 19% approval rating from Democrats and only an 80% from Republicans, which again, seems wrong on both accounts.

If you never differentiate when you are being serious/deliberate from when you are just randomly musing, how am I (or anybody else) to know? A while back you created a thread stating that "Rape culture doesn't exist in the US" (paraphrased) - I took that as you wanting to have a debate and convince others of your belief. Was I incorrect?

And yes, I generally don't offer broad generalizations without some evidence - if I have, please feel free to call me out. I might say "This Republican/Democrat/Northerner/Southerner etc is biased", but don't say "This group does X" without some backing.

I did not.

And people can tell how serious things are (or at least guess) when they don't have trouble with social cues.

I'm ranting about people who try to pretend they're hot shit by asking "source?" on claims that don't matter.

If we pretend that we only have two races, white and black, it's about 1/7 black 6/7 white in America as of 2010.

For Trump to have 50% approval rating, you'd expect black approval to be 32%.

I don't know about 40% but I wouldn't be surprised. A good portion of the black dudes I know at work and church are always hyping up Trump and talking positive about him. They are mostly military guys either active duty or retired. The non-military black guys I know hate him.
