Polls are now being used to discourage moderate voters away from Trump by showing him behind Biden. Truth is he is miles ahead.

the gravy train of $600 a week ending will unfortunately cost Trump and Republicans in general some votes


This is the same reason democrats were completely against the payroll tax cut for people that have been working through this entire mess. It would be seen, in their minds, as a win for the President.

You think because it's Fox that it should favor the republican, don't you? Their polls usually look bad for Trump as they did in 2016.

I won’t repeat what I’ve posted on previous threads, but it’s gonna surprise the media how much more of the black and Hispanic vote he gets this time around. I think some Democratic states will be too close to call for a couple hours that will scare them bigly.

I was responding to the guy who said "CNN/NYT bullshite"

If they are bullshitting, then so is FOX, no?

Plus unlike any other election year people are afraid to say they are President trump supporters for fear of backlash. But when they close the curtain to vote they will cast a ballot for President Trump.



This is true. You have to really know a person, a friend or neighbor, and know their political leanings before you even discuss Trump because you don't want to deal with the aggravation. Case in point, we regularly have neighborhood block parties and most are Trump supporters but when the resident Trump hater shows up we just don't discuss politics at all. Nice people, just not worth discussing.

Whether it is bullshitting or just being inaccurate, yes. I think polls have major issues. I dont believe them whether they're good or bad for my chosen candidate.

It's not an exact science, but there's a lot of smart people doing a lot of good work on them.

There are just only so many things you can quantify.

When you look at it like Vegas setting lines for football games it starts to make a lot more sense.

If Trump can gain a few points by the debates he will start to roll after them.


That’s funny you think there will be debates. No way the Dems Trot that bumbling Retard out against Trump on national TV without a prepped and rehearsed Q & A

Fox is as full of shite as the rest of them; no one in the media can be trusted at face value

if you want to know what is REALLY going on, look at the gambling odds -- the people that set those have only one agenda, profit...

Vegas odds were -300 Clinton +275 Trump the day before the election, so those that “really know” likely lost a ton of money.

Is it stupid to cut unemployment with just three months to go before the election? No, it is extremely stupid!

He'll name Kamala Harris and further secure the black and women vote. They have a good strategy. Not sure what Trumps is yet but we're 100 days out and he's behind in key States

What amazes me is most people I know, and I know a lot of people, is that neither myself or any of them has ever been polled by a pollster survey. So many people choose not to discuss politics anymore for the fear of making someone mad or even losing ones job. Silent majority is about to awaken big time in a landslide win for President Trump. Book it.

Might backfire, Harris is Jamaican/ Indian, not black, most blacks don’t think too kindly of non-blacks trying to pass themselves off as black.
