      Per a few of you who requested it. (From: my NYT bestseller The Smear). David Brock's network designed to appear as though lots of different grassroots groups and watchdogs share views and opinions--but it's the same group.pic.twitter.com/YPKJCAiGOo

      And, Sharyl, how does this differ from the myriad of conservative AstroTurf groups out there?

      It doesn’t (as I report in The Smear). Brock’s groups are noteworthy because nearly every Dem/Repub smear operator I interviewed referred to him as most ubiquitous. They also said most successful but considering the $$ and propaganda for Hillary and vs Trump, it’s now debatable.

      How confident are you in Rasmussen’s Presidential approval numbers among African Americans and how significant is the recent shift?

      I was frankly surprised, & we rechecked everything 3 times before those tweets. Remember - subcategories like whites, blacks & other (races) have higher error margins than the overall 2.5% MOE on the daily 1500. The MOE here can be 3-4X that amount. It's the trend that's key.

      @DrJasonJohnson Ted, that is just bullshit! It is one thing to say black support has grown from 8% to 12%. It’s another to say it has gone from 11% to 36%. Your poll is flawed and reporting these garbage results is irresponsible!

      I'm not sure how you independently know that-- just based on your "feeling" or friends? And are you suggesting polls should only be reported when they agree with somebody's (perhaps your) preconceived notions? Why not look at all of them? You're free to draw your own conclusions.

          When all the high quality polls say black approval is 9-12% and one that is historically flawed reports 36%, to put that “finding” on the same level as others is irresponsible!

          So Pesidential approval numbers like the latest 39% at Gallup and 41% at Quinnipiac pass your obviously highly-refined smell test?

          In 2016 he took 46% to Hillary’s 48% w/ others at 6%. Trump’s extremely high in-party approval numbers to date suggests his base loves what he’s done. Even if he hasn’t pulled a single new supporter, African-American or otherwise, failing to 39-41% seems highly implausible to me

          Trump has dropped dramatically among white women overall, and college-educated white women in particular. He has also dropped substantially among independents — who are greater in number than Dems or GOP. So, 40 or low 40s highly plausible!

          Not this white Independent college educated white woman. I don’t understand how you are putting yourself forward as such an expert-you’re a journalism professor-just because you don’t agree doesn’t make it irresponsible. He already said MOE is higher.

          If you are so educated, then you would know that just because you might support Trump as a white college-educated woman does not mean that many, many others aren't rejecting him. I also have 30+ years of experience teaching and practicing research methodology.

          I of course can only speak for myself. I don’t think you can speak for the country either. You are a very angry, not very nice man. Do some yoga or take a vacation or something ...
