Last night after Trump’s State of the Union address, CNN did some snap polling and found that Trump actually gained support during the course of the speech.
Can you even imagine how upsetting this news must be for Democrats?
David Chalian revealed that 64 percent of people who watched the speech believe that Trump’s policies will move the country in the right direction.
All the Democrat noise about the speech is simply that. Noise.
The Washington Examiner reports:
President Donald Trump‘s record-breaking State of the Union speech Tuesday night resonated with more than 6 in 10 prime-time viewers, according to a flash CNN poll.
The survey, conducted by SSRS, showed 64% of respondents had a very or somewhat positive reaction to Trump’s address, which lasted nearly two hours and was the first of his second term. By contrast, just 36% said they had a somewhat negative or very negative response.
In more positive news for Trump, 65% said they had a lot or some confidence in Trump’s ability to provide “real leadership” for the country, compared to the 35% who said they had no confidence.
The poll also found that 64% believe the policies Trump proposed will move the country in the right direction, with another 36% saying the policies would move the nation in the wrong direction.
During his speech, Trump called on lawmakers to ban institutional investors from buying up single-family homes, asked for them to codify his executive order giving “most favored nation” pricing for prescription drugs, and supported a crackdown on insider trading by members of Congress.

Note how Jake Tapper had to interject with a comment about ‘red meat’ for the base. He is incapable of getting through a segment about Trump without saying something snarky and obnoxious.
Trump’s speech was very effective, not just in highlighting his policies, but for revealing the Democrats to be complete lunatics.
