I’m having real trouble with the polls this year.

If you look at other indicators—Trump’s social media stats vs Hillary’s are staggering, Trump can fill stadiums, Hillary can’t fill a Taco Bell—something is not right. The poll numbers just aren’t lining up with other indicators.

“I’m having real trouble with the polls this year.”

The number I look at when the polls come out is the comparison to the senate race. Many of the battleground states also have key senate races this year.

The numbers are more than concerning.

In the Pennsylvania poll that just came out today, Clinton leads Trump by 10 %. Toomey is losing his senate race by 2 %. The top of the ticket running 8 % below the rest is a real drag on the ballot.

Yesterday a poll came out in Georgia. Trump is down 7 % but Isackson is up 9 %. Again Trump is running far below the senate candidate.

Sure the polls are off. But he cannot stand back, use twitter and rallies (that the media is editing) and gain any ground while everyone in the media is hammering him. He needs to buy some network ads and start slamming Hillary or he will be identified and have his image locked before the fall... another close lost race.

I have posted against being hangdog about the polls, because they are truly biased. Hillary doesn't have a ten point lead... but she has a lead.

Bernie had massive rallies, but Hillary beat him, even excluding the Super Delegates. Trump has to earn votes, Rats get them automatically from the brain dead.

Hillary supporters don’t leave the couch, much less go to rallies. The only reason they even vote is because they are bussed in and promised goodies.

And a lot of republicans are just plain stupid. The refuse to vote for Trump because the media says he is a meanie, and completely ignore Clinton’s unbroken record of failure and corruption.

Still, the polls are garbage.

I don’t know what to think. I thought Romney had it in the bag, and he had big crowds toward the end and he lost pretty bad.

The problem is that I have figured out what the democrats have known for decades. That MOST people are mindless lemmings who yearn to be told what to do and controlled. They are swayed only by emotion, shame and ‘going along with what the majority of the crowd thinks.

I have been watching a lot of mainstream media lately and the attacks on Trump in every single newscast and TV show and print media are vile and are so over the top negative, that it’s almost comical. Over time this propaganda that Trump is a bigot etc. takes hold.

People have been conditioned by Alinsky tactics to be shamed for any non-liberal thoughts. They won’t run to hillary but I fear many will be convinced to vote for some third party candidate for their ‘conscience’ because it makes them feel good to not vote for the ‘bigot’ or crook.

Social Media Patterns Show Trump Is Looking at a Landslide Victory

Current polls show the race for President is much tighter than it really is. Ann Coulter warned us years ago in her bestseller Slander that Democrats and the liberal media always use polls to manipulate and discourage conservatives from voting. Thanks to social media there is more and more evidence that the polls are way off and if things stay as they are, Trump will win in a landslide!

It’s evident Hillary has a hard time filling a Union Hall while Trump regularly turns people away from his stadium and arena venues.
