Spin City: PBS Reporter Claims 74% Say U.S. Is ‘On The Wrong Track’ Because They Fear Trump’s Return | Eastern North Carolina Now

    PBS reporter Yamiche Alcindor claimed on Monday that poor polling numbers - namely polls saying that nearly three-fourths of Americans believe the country is "on the wrong track" - were clear indicators that the American people were afraid former President Donald Trump would return to the White House.

    Alcindor joined an MSNBC panel to discuss the recent NBC News poll - which had 74% of respondents saying they believed the country was headed "in the wrong direction" and just 21% saying that things were going well.

    Host Jose Diaz Balart asked Alcindor why she believed that the American people were so unhappy - noting that the poll also indicated over half of American voters believed the country's best days were in the past - while only around one-third believed the best days were still ahead.

    "What you see, really, is - on the Democratic side - people that are very very worried about the direction of this country," she began. "They're very worried especially about former President Trump possibly coming back into power, or former President Trump or another Republican stealing the election in 2022 or 2024 because we've seen so many election deniers be elected."

    She went on to add that Democrats were also concerned about abortion rights, particularly since the decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization resulted in the overturning of landmark abortion case Roe v. Wade.

    Republicans, she claimed, had completely bought into Trump's claims that the election had been stolen and were more afraid of how many people believed the election was actually free and fair.

    Only then did Alcindor turn to the struggling economy and the number of everyday Americans who were unable to keep up with record-high inflation and elevated gas prices, blaming Republicans for pushing the idea that the nation's economic woes were far from over.

    "You have a lot of Republicans running around the state who - around the country also - who are really saying this is gonna be an economic situation that we're not gonna recover from and that President Biden is leading the country off of a cliff here," she said.

    She concluded by saying that people were also anxious because the pandemic wasn't really over.

    "LOL what?" replied the @JudiciaryGOP.

Considering what is being reported as the most divisive presidential speech - September 1, 2022 - in modern American history, where over 74,000,000 people, many of whom are OUR greatest patriots, were named as fascists by inference or otherwise: Is Joe Biden clearly capable of governing all of the American People to the betterment of this Representative Republic?

  Yes, it is important that Haters are named.

  No, Joe Biden cannot accept criticism when the real truth is his cruelest taskmaster.

  I have no idea what is going on because I only consume Democratic Socialist Media.

Inarguably, the policies of the Democrats in congress and Joe Biden as the Executive is plunging the United States into a recession, if we are not already there; a recession that was completely avoidable. Will abrupt changes in policies occur in time?

  Yes, the Democrats have a bold plan, yet to be revealed, to save us.

  No, there will have to be a complete undoing of the damage done by these Democrats.

  I can't do simple math, so how am I to understand the concept of basic economics.

Was it a judicious ploy for Joe Biden's FBI to execute the unprecedented raid of President Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate?

  Yes; the Cheneys despise this former Republican president, and for good reason ... so they say.

  No; never has a former president been treated with this level of vindictive abuse by those temporarily in power.

  Who cares? It's Trump.
