Well you have a poll with an unusually high % of non responders. That number is high across White, Black and Other. You have a pollster with a history of click bait results who uses non standard polling techniques that he largely refuses to explain. You have a total of around 130 Black responders which would give the results to that particular question a massive +/- variable. You are looking at a 26% negative response from Blacks. You are looking at a total 12% negative response from all Americans and a total 12% negative response from Democrats, which doesn't fit any narrative.
Like I say, you can decide how you want to read it, but it seems more like a Rorschach test than a poll to me, and a sad little hill to die on.
Don't disagree with anything you said. Personally I have gotten sick of the hopium of Rasmussen with conservative candidates winning easily for months in their polls only to collapse in the last week or two to the aggregate average so they can brag about how accurate they are. Both side have bad pollsters, I consider Rasmussen one of ours.
As far as all polls being subsets, yes, but again no one typically reports results with 130 responders of which over 20% didn't answer. That barely even counts as a poll.
I'm sure an accurate poll would be a sad take on race relations. On the other hand I'm not sure we should be applauding Adams decision to add the strangely high non response number to the negative responses. That feels like a decision to me, and what I was trying to point out all along. I will also add that if you rewatch his video it makes little sense due to the fact that he has lived in that house for nearly 20 years.
But I get your point, in some ways he was just being honest and is being crucified for it. Just not sure that in the end he chose a way to do it that is helpful or worth his sacrifice.
