Poll: Americans believe Comey more than Trump over firing

[blue-wave]

Twice as many Americans say they are more likely to believe former FBI Director James Comey than President Trump on their accounts of events leading up to Comey's firing last month, according to a new poll.

Forty-five percent of respondents in an NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll released Friday said they are more likely to believe Comey’s testimony before senators on June 8, while 22 percent said they would believe Trump’s side of the story.

Another 21 percent said they don't believe either Trump or Comey's accounts of the events, while 8 percent said they believe both.

2. When 21% don't even recognise truth from fiction,

that's nearly a quarter of the population who can swayed by emotion because they lack the critical thinking to judge important issues on the facts, rather than their feelings. When those folks hear the right jingle, or read the perfect slogan that inspires them, or find themselves charmed and beguiled by the next huckster or grifter with a catchy stage show, you already know what side they will gravitate to, and it won't be the pragmatic Dems with their facts and figures.
