A new Drop Site/Zeteo/Data For Progress survey also finds likely American voters are split on whether Trump is more responsive to the American people or to Israel.
Similarly, could it be that there was blackmail material in the files that were leveraged against him to break what was perhaps his biggest campaign promise?
Wasn't Epstein helping the Israeli money men make connections..Israel seems to be the main country to benefit from this war that US tax payer money is fronting.... "follow the money"
Calling questions about war motives “antisemitic” is a convenient way to avoid answering them. The poll shows something deeper: Americans increasingly believe U.S. foreign policy isn’t being made for them. When nearly half the country thinks the president might be acting in another country’s interests—or using a war to bury a domestic scandal—that’s a legitimacy crisis, not a conspiracy theory. Instead of smearing critics, maybe Washington and the media should ask why so many Americans have stopped believing them in the first place.
I'm already a paid subscriber, and I'm not planning to upgrade, not right now anyway, but I do think this is a good use of my contribution, and I think polls like this will make me more likely to maintain my subscription. So when you're counting, that's a vote for good quality polls that ask better questions.
About the story, when you're comparing numbers, report them the same way. For example:
"A [Democratic} candidate who supports the war will be badly punished by primary voters in the 2026 congressional elections, with voters saying they’d be 79% less likely to support them, a number that held roughly the same for 2028 presidential candidates.
Republicans, however, would be more likely to support a pro-war candidate by a net 39 points, with only 20% saying it would make them less likely to back the candidate for president."
I think that means 59% of Repugs prefer a pro war candidate, but I'd like to have those numbers reported in the same way. Or have raw data at the end.
Overweight in Epstein files the causation of Trump’s going to war.
Not convinced this is true. It's old news sure more revelations are to emerge but folks have made up their minds: Trump loyalists stay loyalists. Thrump's opposition stay opposed. And than those that don't give a F either way.
Everyone is in their camps.
Israel mossad operatives in our government have trump's ear.
He maybe likes his job running some errands for Israhell, makes him feel important.😂 that includes ruining his own country by creating ICE, to make AmeriKa like Gaza.
Please do a survey about unaffiliated voters (aka independents) and the issue of closed primaries. The effort to keep primaries closed is heating up - a bipartisan effort to ensure we independents (45% of Americans now self identify as unaffiliated) cannot vote in primaries. Independents are not “swing voters,” we are noncompliant and refused to participate in the two party corruption. I don’t “swing” vote. And for the first time since 1976 I could not vote for an independent for President thanks to Andy Cuomo and the DP. Outrageous!!!! Thanks for all you do at Drop Site and BP.
Conspiracy much? Trump left Epstein behind prior to 2007 after Epstein had behaved in an appropriate manner to the daughter of a member of Mar el Lago. Emails revealed prior to the DOJ dump revealed that Epstein was increasingly angry about Trumps attitude and that he suspected that Trump was the one who had advised the FBI to look at Epstein and he was right in that suspicion. None of this makes Trump a good guy because he’s not. However, why are you not focussing on Clinton? A known sex pest. He appears multiple times on the Lolita express manifest, Trump does not appear at all. Clinton made many visits to Epstein island, Trump never set foot on the place. Clinton ditched his secret service multiple times when he visited Epstein island. Clinton went on private trips with Epstein including a safari. The Clintons, and others, have testified under oath that they never saw or witnessed and Trump involvement in Epstein’s activities. Get over it.
Americans are in much more danger from Israel than from Iran: Netanyahu convinced Trump to go to war; Israel occupies Congress through AIPAC; Israel is bankrupting the U.S.; Israel is committing genocide, kills Americans, bombs all its neighbors and breaks international law with impunity. Iran was not a threat to the U.S.
This misses the point. The military industrial complex, CIA, as outlined in policy papers wants the war for US hegemony supremacy. The fact that this aligns with Israels genocidal, biblical aspirations pushes the action forward and finally the president is anxious to take the spotlight off of his Epstein files.
It certainly helps in distracting incriminating evidence probably contained in the E. Files, however, economist Micheal Hudson's opinion is it is the oil and the petro dollars controlling the oil trade and therefore the world economy that is the dominate goal.
This poll is very interesting! But especially how little the majority of these people knows about what is happening with OUR government and it's practices. Very sad!
Hence operation 'Epstein Fury'

His promises mean nothing.

But even with the quibble, good story.

Thank you!
First poll 💪💪 Onwards and upwards Zeteo and Dropsite
We all should be saying Trump-Epstein Files.
Just dropped my WaPo subscription.

Somebody should get Trump interested in a hobby like painting,butterfly collecting,fishing anything
to keep him away from the button.
He maybe likes his job running some errands for Israhell, makes him feel important.😂 that includes ruining his own country by creating ICE, to make AmeriKa like Gaza.
