The Time Georgia Voters Went Full Derp

[KILL KILL]

Vince Foster was a prominent lawyer that served under Bill Clinton for a few months, before committing suicide in 1993.

A group out of South Carolina polled 724 self identified Trump supporters in Georgia and asked them a series of questions, such as this;

“Do you think Hillary Clinton was involved in the death of Vince Foster, or not?”

Apparently, 50% believe that Vince Foster did NOT commit suicide, but was murdered, and Hillary Clinton had something to do with it.

Half of Georgia Trump Voters Think Hillary Murdered Vince Foster, Poll-Trolls Find

Public Policy Polling, a Democratic-affiliated polling group based out of North Carolina, has released yet another poll riddled with intentionally troll-ish questions designed to highlight hyper-partisan biases and extreme, potentially toxic, opinions.

The data, released Wednesday, found that half of pro-Trump voters polled believe Clinton had “some involvement” in the death of Vince Foster, who once served as a Deputy White House Counsel during Bill Clinton’s presidency. 13 percent of respondents said Hillary Clinton did not, in fact, help kill a lawyer, and 37 percent were not “sure one way or another.”

Not just that, but 31% wished the Confederacy had won the Civil War

Furthermore, 31 percent of the Georgia Trump supporters said that they wished that the Confederacy had won the Civil War (a noncommittal 32 percent were not “sure one way or another” about whether or not it was a good thing that the Union emerged victorious).

This was the same group that polled Republican primary voters and found that 30% approved with bombing Agrabah, the fictional country in Aladdin.

I have met some non derps that think the Clinton's had a part in his murder. Discuss.

5 investigations that concluded it was a suicide, say that the people you are referring to are in fact, derps. Discuss.

They truly are not derps, you will just have to take my word for it. I thought one of them said he was shot behind the ear. Possible although precarious for a suicide. Discuss.

I've seen polls and videos of people that can't even name the sides in the US Civil War let along who our opposition was in either World War, the Vietnam War...the Korean War.

Colleague of mine back in 2003 stated that he saw the following statistic:

80% of Americans supported the US invasion of Iraq.
80% of Americans could not find Iraq on a map.

I think your was misinformed.

- The guy approached a doctor for depression
- He was prescribed anti-depressants
- He put a gun in his mouth and pulled the trigger.

He was not shot behind the ear.

While the main point of your post is a good one, this last bit was rather unfair. If I were to ask your average person, leftist or right winger, "The people of the German city of Gutenbadenwurst have recently said they make the best sausages in the world - do you agree?" you'd get all sorts of people weighing in like it was a real place. I bet if you saw an internet poll asking that, there's a good chance a lot of the War Room would immediately answer "No." Why? Because it sounds really German and there are thousands of towns in Germany and how the hell do I know there isn't a place called Gutenbadenwurst when asked on the spot?

It's easy to act as if we are all geography whizzes off the top of our head but it's BS.I mean, hell, the leader of Canada thinks the Baltic nations "are not a thing."

This is the leader of your neighbor to the north... And people make a big deal out of Americans seeing Agrabah in a poll and assuming it was some real sandy craphole in the Middle East? On the spot, no phone - is Chin-Chong Choi a real town somewhere in Asia? Don't know? Well, you could have just been the victim of a poll like that one - how stupid are you?

 

[bad seed]

a third of the War Room believes that too.

That is likely true. I'd be willing to bet the majority could not find Syria on a map today.

It's not so much not knowing whether or not it exists, so much as giving consent to bomb it without knowing whether or not it actually exists other than the fact that it sounds Arabic.

Even if this was true would you be shocked?

I honestly do not know a lot about the situation, I am not quite the old timer you are so I can't draw from memory. It was just odd for you to bring it up and I literally heard some people talking about it a week or so ago, and like I said I don't consider them to be derps, but now I think you may have cost me some friends. Thanks @KILL KILL

Apparently derps are people who dare question the narrative of the MSM

And we assume they make sausage in Gutenbadenwurst just because it has a German name. Hell, these days, we should probably assume they have a thriving kebab industry - but the assumption is there. Given that I can count the number of Arab countries we're on good terms with on one bloody finger it's not a huge wonder that a lot of people react that way. On top of that, how many are we already sending drones into? So, is the whole bombing thing that much of a stretch from what's already being done under our current foreign policy?

If you were to provide a poll to a liberal audience asking "Do you think we need to do something improve the human rights in DurkDurkastan?" do you think most of them would stop and check the rights record first - or would they jump to the packaged conclusion of "Wait, that's an Arabic name, and we all know they treat woman badly!" as they answer yes without the slightest clue that it's a setting from Team America??

Anyways, bed time for me. Later.

LOL you actually think he was murdered and that Hillary Clinton was involved?

Assuming a make believe German place makes sausages is a far cry from giving consent to bomb another country you've never heard of (real or not). Bombing a country is serious business. A bit more serious than sausages, don't you think?

Some Americans can't even identify US states.

I long ago lost my surprise at New Englanders & New Yorkers coming to San Diego and thinking the Bay Area is "just a couple hour drive" away. Go see some redwoods this afternoon. wtf.

Not like SoCal people aren't like that - referring to Fresno as northern California. Yes, it is north of us but it isn't northern California, what the hell do they consider the Bay Area, Sacramento or Tahoe? In Oregon??
I've asked that question, people got upset.

And here is one about Georgia: Co-worker went with some friends to Atlanta for the NCAA Final Four.
They were surprised at how many black people live in Atlanta and that there weren't many Mexicans. It was very perplexing to them. "So many black people there."

The clintons do display sociopathic behavior, and death and conspiracy seem to revolve around them frequently. I wouldn't be surprised if it was true, but obviously if this topic is going to be brought forth in a presidential race you need to bring more evidence to the table.
