538 speaks. Now with built in excuses! They got him now! Nate is never wrong...right?
quote:

But wait! Should you even trust the polls? Hillary Clinton led in the polls in 2016, right? Yes. But Clinton had only a small advantage in most surveys — Trump’s win was well within the range of normal polling error. As elections analyst Geoffrey Skelley wrote last week, Biden’s lead over Trump has already topped Clinton’s post-convention peak. Biden also enjoys more overall support than Clinton. In other words, there’s a genuine difference between Biden’s position now and Clinton’s four years ago.

That's some serious revisionist history spin.

Bullzhit.

Absent blatant fraud, Trump wins this one going away.

If Biden is GIVEN the Presidency via fraud, Conservatives should burn the country to the ground.

Only when Biden reaches a 98% chance of winning will I feel completely confident Trump will emerge victorious

I don’t know what the 538 percentages were post-convention 2016, but at one point 538 had Clinton with a 96% chance of winning.

This is the thread where we learn a 71% chance of winning is stronger than a 98% chance of winning, kids.

This is the problem we have today....people ignoring facts and just rewriting history to fit a narrative or push an agenda.

What Fn survey or poll had Hillary within the margin of error? It was constantly +10...some had +20
