So you're admitting that it's a fucked up study that means nothing.

yes that would be my guess. I looked up news that said only 6% of people cared about Russia and that is the survey I came up with. It doesnt surprise me that a survey claiming only 10% of people are concerned about climate change also shows only 6% are worried about Russia.

Its being pushed by Hannity and tea party http://www.hannity.com/content/2017-07-18-poll-only-6-of-americans-care-about-russia-collusion/

The conflation by the OP (the same unhappy Trump supporter posting nonsense everywhere) is gained by dropping the qualifier that this was a survey about 'most important thing' facing the us - nothing to do with fake news or the veracity of the Russian allegations.

35% said Health Care is the most important. Given national surveys showing less than 18% support of any of the Republican bills it could be concluded that the majority of those thinking that health care is the most important oppose the GOP.

I have never seen people misinterpret a poll more and you are an idiot for following Hannity. He's a manipulator.

The question was what do you see as the "most important issue," so you would pick one, not whether you saw it as an issue or not. So yeah, healthcare is an important issue, so is the economy which as someone already meantioned isn't even an option. Then again, neither is "Trump's potential collusion with a foreign power," which simply because of the phrasing, would end up scoring higher. If they asked whether people were concerned or not, and people could say yes to multiple issues, you'd find that the Russia thing is even higher. Furthermore, I'm not concerned about our "relationship" with Russia. Just as I'm not concerned about our "relationship" with Isis. However, if there was even the smallest bit of evidence that Trump's administration was colluding with Isis, I sure as fuck would hope the intelligence agencies investigate the shit out of that shit.

So either you are stupid and don't know how to read research, or you are easily manipulated and prone to just repeat what other idiots say without actually thinking for yourself. I don't know why so many Trump supporters love to brag to the world that they are either stupid or easily manipulated. It's obvious to others and something you would do best not the advertise.

Considering the fact that only 23% of Americans think Trump is doing a good job... does it really matter...

Lowest approval rating of ANY president in history.

you seem a little unhinged friend. I suppose if anyone knew which post you are referring to we could all be outraged together. I posted the Hannity citation because my search engine at work wouldnt let me get the original bloomberg. Hannity is a toad hence I said he was 'pushing' it.

Again if you were referring to my post, though you seem pissed off at me, we are in agreement that the OP was conflating the meaning of the survey.

I guess Im surprised how both right and left reactionaries read one or two trigger words (e.g. 'Hannity') and go off. Shut down and go into partisan attack mode without fully reading the posts.

If I was referring to your post I would have quoted you. Rest easy, I may be be on the far left of your middle, but my gripe (as you also noted) would be with the OP passing this off as noteworthy and Hannity using bad research to manipulate his sheep.
