Lots of right winger pollsters out there, including Zogby

The list of Trump approval polls is chockfull of right wing pollsters such as Zogby (who began grifting for the right after Nate Silver exposed him). The chiefs of Insider Advantage and Trafalgar have a podcast together, Zogby gets money from right wing groups to make crooked polls, and several others in the poll aggregators are right wing-owned or conducting polls to make money off MAGA subscribers.

The Harris guy went full right wing after Hillary fired him. And he had already made crooked polls for right wing Venezuelans even years prior to that full-fledged grifting move. .

The trick is to call Zobgu “independent” and Harris a “Democrat “ to give them fake cred.

Zogby flashback ABC News 2018:

I wouldn’t doubt Trump is emboldened into doing crazy things because he thinks these right wing pollsters are correct in faking his 50+ job approval. So he thinks his genocide has popular support.

be wrong to characterize him as a rightwing pollster. He isn’t.
