The Des Moines Register: Here's why, despite what polls say, Trump is winning.

Despite nearly every poll showing Joe Biden all but certain to oust President Donald Trump, some little-noticed factors indicate the opposite.

Trump also benefits from a weak Democratic candidate who, among other problems, can't decide whether he is moderate or progressive.

In August, the respected CATO Institute reported that 62% of Americans acknowledge holding views that many people consider offensive. Among conservatives, that number skyrockets to 77%. With potentially tens of millions of closeted fans, Trump is a pollster’s nightmare. The wife of a pro-Trump buddy of mine detests the 45th president. Yet, when she slams Trump — which is very often — my friend smiles, nods approvingly, and replies, “I hear ya, sweetie,” or, “you sure got that right, honey.” Another guy who does the same thing says, “Happy wife; happy life.” These pro-union Democrats, incidentally, own vehicles affixed with Biden-Harris bumper stickers. But most Democrats summarily reject the notion that scores of millions of likely voters adore Trump’s views, statements and actions

Opinion piece is pretty spot on. Have to say, there are not a lot of stickers or yard signs like in the past like there was for Obama and Hillary. I live in a very liberal neighborhood, and there are only 4 houses with yard signs. In fact, Lexington as a whole was littered with Obama yard signs all over the city when he ran...there is hardly and Biden signs this election.

The Trafalgar Group’s Rob Cahaly — who predicted Trump’s 2016 victory — claims most Americans dislike responding to polls consisting of 25 or more questions. Accordingly, Trafalgar’s polls feature under 10 questions. Having worked on two U.S. Senate campaigns, four U.S. House races and three presidential campaigns, my experience tells me that Cahaly is spot-on. He posits that Americans whose views are unpopular “don’t want to be judged by somebody on the phone that they don’t know. They’ve seen this stuff with people being judged for their opinion, losing their jobs.”
