>The latest skewed media polls must be intentional. It’s clear that NBC, ABC and CNN who have Democrat operatives like Chuck Todd, George Stephanopoulos and other Democrats in their news operations are consistently under-polling Republicans and therefore, reporting biased polls. They continue to poll adults or registered voters that skew away from likely voters. So instead of the 33% Republican turnout which actually happened in 2016, they are reporting polls on only 26%, 25% or even 24% Republicans. Since you get over 90% of the Republican vote, for every point fewer Republicans that they do not poll, they reduce your vote total by a point. In contrast CBS polled likely voters. CBS had 32% Republicans and a close national race. The bias seems to be an intentional strategy to suppress your vote. The latest media spin is that it’s too late to define Joe Biden and it’s too late for President Trump to win. We can hardly wait until they start spinning a “Biden electoral lock”. It has to be a strategy to counter the enthusiasm of Trump voters.
>For, example, the CNN poll out today is another skewed anti-Trump poll of only 25% Republican. It’s a poll of 1,259 adults – not even registered voters, let alone likely voters. Also, it was done between June 2ndand 5th, before the great economic news from last Friday. In their questionnaire between asking about your job approval and the ballot, they had questions on issues including race relations, not job creation, which could have biased the poll further. It appears that the CNN poll is biased in both sample and questionnaire design to manufacture an anti-Trump outcome."
This needs to be spread as far and wide as possible. It's proof that the polls are bullshit demoralization propaganda campaigns. I know many Trump supporters don't believe the polls anyway, but many of them do, and the mere appearance of Biden having an insurmountable lead could depress GOP turnout, sway independents to Biden and energize the democratic base. They can't keep getting away with it!
Eli Reyes
wow dude no way left wing media polls are only representative of left wing areas who could've guessed
Jace Mitchell
You aren't getting the significance of this. Only a small proportion of the electorate believes that the polls are rigged. For the most part just Trump's hardcore base and some Zig Forums types. Even after 2016, the vast majority of people who could be swayed one way or another - the people who matter in an election - believe that the polls are at least mostly legit. This is the most reputable source imaginable telling them that the polls ARE rigged. Unless you're a Maddow liberal type it would almost certainly convince you. The point is not to convince right-wing political junkies that the polls are bullshit; the point is to make this spread among normie Republicans and independents. I'm doing my part by planting this here and hoping it spreads through the usual channels.
Jacob Myers
the polls weren't rigged in 2018. they were pretty much dead on for most races. maybe trump isn't popular with his base, since he's done fuck all for us.
Juan Ramirez
Irrelevant. They're rigged now. And the opposing party almost always wins midterm elections anyway.
Austin Mitchell
People need to understand the difference between public and private polling. Public polls are utter shit and exist to 1. Influence public opinion and 2. Provide a narrative for media content generation. Private polls as very expensive and very secret. They are brutally accurate, as campaigns need no-bullshit assessments of where they stand. These polls are only seen by the upper echelon of the campaign and top donors. They are not leaked.
tl:dr If you are seeing a poll, it’s bullshit
Logan Baker
I'm worried that most people don't know this, that the 10-12 point Biden lead polling every other day will have a depressive effect on the actual voters and/or provide cover for the democrats to steal the election. Normal people need to become aware of how utterly rigged the polls are.

A CAR FULL OF BROWARD COUNTY BALLOTS JUST FLEW OVER MY HOUSE
It'll almost definitely be a landslide on election night, but the media will hide it and / or say that we need to wait until January 20 for all the ballots to be cast. I can see CNN, NBC, CBS, all the major TV outlets totally hiding the results, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Google and all major internet / social media companies bringing the censorship hammer down harder than ever before, and FOX News betraying Trump, all at the same time. It's gonna be extremely rough.
Ryan Miller
>for all the ballots to be cast For all the mail-in ballots to be counted I mean
Leo Long
Well, yeah that’s their goal. They play games, too. Like now they have the race “narrowing” ahead of the democrat convention. This is done to juice-up his “post-convention bounce”, which they will hype to the hills.
Bentley Jones
If Trump's fanbase wasn't so hardened, yeah that might happen. It probably does happen with normal political candidates (like Romney and McCain). But with Trump people vote for him to make a statement, not because they think he's going to win necessarily. 62 million people voted for Trump in 2016 99% sure he wasn't going to win, but then he did.
Voter enthusiasm is probably the single most important factor in US presidential elections (maybe all elections), but it's simultaneously the least well understood factor in election predictions. If you're worrying about polls, you need to turn off the news and go mow your lawn. Stop worrying, it doesn't help. Talk to your neighbors instead.
David Evans
Fucking reptiles. I hope Trump refuses to leave office if he *loses*. His supporters, DHS, practically all police and most of the rank-and-file military would likely be in favor.
Angel Bennett
No fucking shit, if you say you're voting Trump and someone hears you, you get your scrotum cut open and your sack pulled over your head. If a kid wears a MAGA hat they get expelled from school and a crisis meeting had to be held for all the triggered children.
Cameron Brown
It is a good thing. The leftists have a weird fetish for humiliation and demoralization, even when it works against them. They cant resist it.
They should have learned in 2016 that it is much worse to be over confident in your chances than it is to be under confident. If they had left it alone, there would be a good chance that some Trump people would think he was going to landslide this year and not show up, but because of their Jew tendencies they MUST attempt to shove their opponents nose in shit at all times. The result is that the trump people are on red alert. Sometimes I think the Dems would rather do victory dances for the 6 months leading up to an election than they would actually win an election. The reality is that they like this demoralization strategy, even if it dooms them, because it has the auxiliary function of setting them up to cry about the election being "stolen" from them kek. Dems will probably get a boost because of lazy leftists fucks who never thought trump would be able to win in 2016 and are now having flashbacks, but this will be offset and then some by all their fear mongering which failed in 2016. I mean when your strategy is painting a person as so incompetent that they are literally going to nuke us all the moment they become president... and then that person wins and nothing of the sort happens... you've kind of played yourself for future elections. That person becomes hard to beat on the next go around. They dont understand at a basic level that there are prices to be paid for certain strategies and moves. Le nuclear Codes, fear mongering meme has a massive cost they refuse to address. No telling how many people this sort of fear tactic kept from the polls in 2016. Now that nothing outrageous has happened, they have a problem on their hand because they set the bar so low with trump. They literally predicted he would nuke the world.
Daniel Lewis
Only complete panic gets Dems to the polls, so to have fake polls showing Biden with a comfy lead is stupid, it literally makes Dems say "why bother, we got it locked" while it angers Repubs and they come out in record numbers. Honest polling would actually get more Dems to the polls.
>it has the auxiliary function of setting them up to cry about the election being "stolen" from them kek You see reports about the election wargames that took place a couple weeks ago? breitbart.com/2020-election/2020/08/02/democrats-war-game-for-election-includes-west-coast-secession-possible-civil-war-john-podesta/ >But Mr. Podesta, playing Mr. Biden, shocked the organizers by saying he felt his party wouldn’t let him concede. Alleging voter suppression, he persuaded the governors of Wisconsin and Michigan to send pro-Biden electors to the Electoral College. In that scenario, California, Oregon, and Washington then threatened to secede from the United States if Mr. Trump took office as planned. The House named Mr. Biden president; the Senate and White House stuck with Mr. Trump. At that point in the scenario, the nation stopped looking to the media for cues, and waited to see what the military would do.
Parker Bennett
If they weren't utter fucking morons they would've nominated Bernie and used congress / intel agencies to restrain him once in office. The election would probably be over by now. Instead they nominated a literal dementia patient and a cop in the middle of an anti-cop revolt within their own party. Kind of breathtaking, really.
James Barnes
yeah. there also need to be laws against manipulating polls, especially with an election.
David Reed
Is this the same guy that had such utterly awful internal polls for the Romney campaign that Mitty stopped ads, cancelled campaign stops and didn't write a concession speech for the election because him and everyone in his campaign though it was a slam dunk even when the public polls showed him losing to Obabe for weeks?
Trump should really take this guy at his word...
Nicholas Baker
The last thing the DNC wants is Bernie in power, because it'd be like with Trump and the RNC. The GOP is not the Trump party and there's little they can do about it after the fact, no matter who gets in after. They'll have to pay lip service to his agenda forever, if not him personally, or GOP turnout will plummet and they'll never get re-elected.
The DNC decided to go for Biden because he's easily controlled and he won't be able to change the character of the party. You have to remember, the DNC is a big tent style party with lots of different factions coming together to win elections at the national level, however those factions all have conflicting desires. If the communists get too powerful, the business dems leave. If the business dems get too powerful, the communists and environmentalists leave. If the environmentalists are put in charge everyone leaves because nobody really gives a shit about the environment. And so on and so forth.
The real big brain move would have been nominating Mayor Pete. He's young, so he's probably easily controlled, but he's not super popular so he's unlikely to change the party itself much (like Obama, basically). Then all the DNC has to do is control his cabinet picks and they can siphon off government largesse for at least four years.
Landon Wood
No, that was Dick Cheney. Dick Cheney was Bush II's vice president.
Leo Scott
>At that point in the scenario, the nation stopped looking to the media for cues, and waited to see what the military would do. That "wargame" was stupid. The military wouldn't do anything. They'd simply wait for the Supreme Court to make the call like they did in 2000. Additionally, until a new president is sworn in, they take orders from the current president. So it's still Trump's military until they swear in someone else, and who swears in the POTUS? Oh, that's right, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.
Oliver King
nah. with pete they can't rig the 90%+ black urban vote. no one would believe it. they were probably saving pete for later when they could safely replace the black vote with hispanics. but because their starters sucked, they went to the bullpen.
Daniel Long
theweek.com/articles/472056/are-polls-rigged-against-mitt-romney >"The Democrats want to convince anti-Obama voters falsely that Romney will lose to discourage them from voting," Republican pollsters John McLaughlin tells National Review. "So they lobby the pollsters to weight their surveys to emulate the 2008 Democrat-heavy models."
thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/house-races/209327-national-republicans-dont-use-cantors-pollster >"National Republicans are warning candidates to stay away from House Majority Leader Eric Cantor's (R-Va.) pollster, who predicted just weeks before Cantor's loss that he was up by a huge margin. Veteran GOP pollster John McLaughlin has a recent history of missing the mark by a wide margin in his top races. Now, it seems some Republicans have had enough."
>"McLaughlin also predicted that Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney would beat President Obama in Virginia by seven points in 2012. Instead, Obama won the state by four points."
The guy sounds like a top tier pollster, Trump should absolutely listen to him.
Elijah Harris
You make a good point here, but I’m still voting Trump. I’ve also offered all of my 50 employees $100 bonus if they vote Trump.
Chase James
Does it even matter if anyone believes the vote rigging? At this point, no justice is being done anyway, they probably would get away with it. Especially now that they're pushing for mail in voting and half the guaranteed blue states aren't going to have results on election night now.
Joseph Wright
Reaaaaally? Is that so? Not like we haven't known this for generations! Kikes gonna kike.
