Bill Mitchell:

I am one of the foremost polling experts on Twitter.

Here is the new "game" pollsters are playing. Instead of blatantly oversampling Democrats, they WILDLY over-sample Independents then claim Independents oppose Trump 2:1.

A complete lie.

Independents LOVE Trump.

The Lefty Twitterati brutally mocked Bill Mitchell in the runup to the November 8, 2016 election.

After President Trump curbstomped the brains out of Felonia's ears, they STFU.

???? If Independents are more pro-Trump than thse pollsters assume, then shouldn’t oversampling Indies provide pro-Trump results? What is he saying?

Sorry, bill, the whole R:D:I paradigm is passé.

I mean, come on: how many RINO's are totally against President Trump? And how many D's voted for President Trump in the rust belt?

President Trump has transformed elections into issue based instead of party based contests.     Failure to understand that will render you irrelevant.

The real problem is lying to the American people is not a legal crime. News organizations and special interest polls can be biased to the hilt, and there's not a damned thing that can be done about it other than calling them out.

If we thought the polls in 2016 were ridiculous, the next three months will likely make those appear unbiased.

Reminds me of the recent past when all raging libs (e.g., Bill Maher) CLAIMED they were independents and religiously carried the liberal water, thus “proving” that even the “independents” were against conservatism in this (and every) case.

None of my friends believe the "polls," any more than they believe CNN. Frankly, I don't think there are many people undecided or persuadable: the nuts have made their decision, even if it means voting for an ignorant socialist hyena:

Bill Mitchell is a dim bulb. A ‘trust sessions’ siren.

Why people like and retweet his crap is mystifying.

Trump voters lied to or hung up on the pollsters in 2016. That’s why almost all of the polling was wrong.

It’s happening again.

Hard to take anyone who tweets this kind of crap seriously:

They’re going to slant the polls again, so that when they don’t take either house of Congress, they can scream some more about Russian meddling. They have to pretend that when they don’t win, it’s always because of some skullduggery.

Don’t people understand, this is, or would be, a one-party state if not for fraud of some sort. That’s their story and they’re sticking to it.

Actually, this is true. Sessions is strong on immigration, but, ineffective as an AG on other issues. He should have been head of the Immigration - poor choice for AG.

Has he prosecuted anyone in the sanctuary cities or states for harboring illegal aliens? It’s a felony. No? Then it’s not true.

Sessions is worthless on every front. A deep-state compromised rat bastard.

In his defense, he was one of the few who predicted Trump would win. I remember reading his tweets on Election Day when the early evening exit polls had Hillary ahead. He was adamant that it was BS and that Trump would pull off the win.
