Surprised? Well don’t blame me, I didn’t make this stuff up: It’s the result of a poll conducted by the non-partisan, well-trusted, highly respected and perhaps only slightly Liberally biased Emerson College, from their “April 2024 National Poll” published April 18, 2024.

For some people (I guessing mostly Trump supporters) this result may be completely obvious, like water being wet, the sun hot, and that man didn’t hang himself. Still, it’s nice to see someone actually measured it and removed (nearly) all doubt.

One might think this would make for a sensational, attention-grabbing headline, but not Emerson College: Their big conclusion was that 75% of those polled said the cost of living is rising under Joe Biden.

And at least one person reached a conclusion completely unsupported by the poll data:

“This says to me that liars have a strong preference for Trump.”

Maybe Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain) was right when he said: “Figures don’t lie, but liars figure.” The tricky part is figuring out who’s lying and with what figures.
