Voter preference for Trump linked to bullying in middle schools — ScienceDaily

 

The study — conducted by Francis Huang, an associate professor of statistics, measurement, and evaluation in education at the University of Missouri, and Dewey Cornell, a professor of education at the University of Virginia — used school climate survey data collected in 2013, 2015, and 2017. Researchers used a standard definition of bullying to ask students if they personally had been bullied at school, but also asked more general questions about bullying and teasing they had observed happening to others in their school.

Survey results were then mapped onto presidential election results for each school district’s locality. The study controlled for several locality-wide variables, including prior bullying and teasing rates, socioeconomic status, population density, and the percentage of white student enrollment.

Huang and Cornell found that a 10 percentage point increase in voters supporting the Republican candidate in 2016 was associated with a 5 percent jump in middle school teasing because of race or ethnicity and an 8-percent increase in middle school bullying.

“Survey results were then mapped onto presidential election results for each school district’s locality.” –  BUT, you can’t make any kind of “presidential election results” comparisons because there was no survey in any prior presidential elections!  You have no idea how things played out after the 2012 or 2008 or 2004 elections, so you can’t say that it was the election of a Republican that had anything to do with the reports of bullying.  For all you know, there were higher incidents of bullying after other elections, also.  I cry foul.

You claim there’s a jump in bullying, BUT you don’t actually say who’s being bullied OR who’s doing the bullying.  (It could even be teachers.)  My guess, if social media is any indication, that it’s the children who are inclined to be more Republican-centered than Democrat-centered who are actually being bullied here.  I suspect it’s your “Voter preference for Trump” kids who are BEING bullied, not doing the bullying, as you imply.  Again, I cry foul on this “study.”  [Like this story, for example: Bullying Jerks Drive Kid To Breaking Point Because His Name is Trump]

Last but not least, middle school kids can’t vote!   So it’s really a stretch to try to link “voter preference” to middle-schoolers.

Lawsuit Filed Against PA for Registering 100,000 Noncitizens to Vote | Truth Revolt

Tell me again how there’s no such thing as voter fraud.

 

And yet, the Democratic Party has gone out of its way promising legal citizens that there is absolutely no voter fraud occurring anywhere. Thankfully, organizations like PILF are taking them to task and to court to prove them wrong.

Women Accusing Donald Trump of Sexual Assault Reveal Why They Aren’t Suing Him

A congressional investigation may be warranted, but the women seem to acknowledge they do not have a legal case against the president. Even Summer Zervos, the former “Apprentice” contestant and sexual assault accuser who is suing Trump, has taken him to court for defamation, not for sexual assault.

Women Accusing Donald Trump of Sexual Assault Reveal Why They Aren’t Suing Him

 

I suspect this is why they’re letting a lot of Dem political types (like Conyers and Franken) fall to the sexual harassment juggernaut: because there is evidence they did it, they admitted some level of guilt, and I think they believe they’re building some kind of “balance sheet.”  As if to say, look, we let 5 guys go, and now we demand that you let Trump and Moore go.  Two senators are worth one president.  As though there was some kind of fairness or justice in that.

There are 2 reasons these women aren’t pursuing charges against Trump.  And seriously, let’s not forget, if there were any merit to their accusations, they’d have sued him when he was just a billionaire, long before he ever became president. 

The 1st reason is, they don’t have a case.  There is no evidence to back them up. 

The 2nd reason is, they’re lying.  There was no assault. 

Seriously, and I’m saying this as nicely as I can, I’ve seen Trump’s “type.”  I’ve seen his wives and girlfriends over the years.  These women are Not. Trump’s. Type.  They are trying to flatter themselves by hoping to make you believe the President of the United States found them desirable. 

And you thought Trump had a big ego!
