Trump is despised by many, many people and they are passionate.

The media has been very effective at painting him as a racist/clown/bad guy and very effective at hiding his success.

These polls are designed to keep Trump voters at home. “He’s so far behind that my vote won’t matter.”

Not just that, they also want Trump donors to spend money in Red States like TX and GA so that they don’t focus spending where it really matters.

I think in TX the margin is going to look more like Cruz's win than Abbot's win in 2018, but still a Trump win.

Covid cases out of control in Michigan and Wisconsin- did you think this would mean good poll results for Trump?

How is any of this surprising?



I fail to see the correlation to DJT. What has he done to spike cases there? Also, do you believe the number of cases matter?

I see an administration that rapidly responded and prepared states to handle a worst case scenario. Not one person who needed a bed, medicine, a ventilator, or PPE has gone without.

Don't let CNN confuse you, baw.

I hope who ever wins , does it in a landslide. Preferably Trump. The best chance we may have to stop the country from becoming socialist is if the democrats push it to fast. Then a lot of no voters will actually get out and vote to stop it .

When I see Biden up in Georgia, that reassures me that the other polls are crap.


I wish it weren't true, but Georgia is a swing state now, after losing republican stronghold Cobb County in 2016.

Cobb County- the district of Newt Gingrich and Bob Barr, the district where the county commission chairman passed a resolution denouncing homosexuality thus losing all Olympic events in 96..... this Cobb County voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016.

Gwinnett is also getting more blue.

Population is rising in bluer parts of the state, populations are falling in the redder parts of the state.

There's a reason why Trump and Pence continue "wasting" their time visiting Georgia.


Edit to add... the Suburban Women thing is a real thing in metro ATL. There's alot of women who would be voting for a republican but they are so repulsed by Trump they'll vote for a pine cone because they are mentally weak emotional creatures.

I’m more concerned about Loeffler’s Senate seat than I am about Trump getting the votes.

The republican will win the runoff, whether it's collins or loeffler. I wouldn't worry too much about that one. Dem turnout will be in the gutter for a runoff.

WSBTV. (Atlanta ABC station) has Trump up 4 in GA. That poll is probably accurate
WSB and AJC are owned by the same conglomerate (Cox Enterprises). I'm sure they used different polling companies, but funny to see such a spread between the two.

You're the moron with your head in the sand. We just had a record high in case numbers, and its not slowing down.

The third wave is here, and the deaths are just gonna keep coming because this Administration has done absolutely nothing. Trumps presidency will be a footnote in American History, and one where he let 225k+ Americans die on his watch while mocking the whole thing. It's really sad that you Trumpers just follow him blindly because you're too stupid to have any rational thought.

Why even post this garbage. It’s the equivalent of calling 4 people you know are libs, asking who they are voting for and calling it a “poll”

At this point what does Trump do for rising cases in a state?

In Wisconsin there is shutdowns and indoor mandatory masking. Schools closed. Governors orders. Cases have gone up anyways.

What exactly do you want Trump to do here?

Hollywood and outside orgs and the DNC poured so many millions of dollars into that race, even Will Ferrell flew out here for a week to be a campaign volunteer knocking on doors at a college campus to canvas for Abrams. In a midterm where turnout is lower, it was almost as high as 2016 turnout. That election was a little bit flukey. but you are still right, Abrams almost won.

If Biden really is tied up or better in Texas don’t you think hed be campaigning here? That would be an absolute kill shot making every other swing state meaningless. Even with all the chatter about Harris county the state/local gop people know the state and they are showing absolutely no signs of worry. If Harris was causing problems for trump it would do the same for Cornyn.


Also in my locale Ted Cruz was as or more hated than Trump and he still won.



It is not who votes, it is who counts the votes, "Stalin."

What's your guesstimate for this number if Hillary were president? If Joe was president? How many deaths do you think there would be under their watch?
