After a great RNC convention, Trump is leading. Polls came and said he was on a roll. DNC has their convention and it was Sanders supporters blasting Clinton supporters, screaming and hollering that that they wanted Clinton in jail. The usual suspects gave speeches, then Hitery gave one of the worst speeches in memory. Universally panned. The very next day CNN parades a Clinton paid cronie by the the name of Khan to trash Trump and call every him every vile name you can call someone. Two days later Trump gets on ABC with George Popapappapdouplus, who asked him about the crazy Muslim Clinton supporter. Trump says he doesn't know him but he was really blasting him at the DNC. Then comes the set-up from Papadopolpolus. "His wife was right beside him and didn't say anything, why do you think she didn't say anything. Trump: Well I don't know, maybe she couldn't, maybe she couldn't speak". Trump meant, and rightfully so that a lot of women in Muslim homes speak to the husbands when he gives them permission. This is absolute fact. So Trump said nothing wrong. All the liberal media, including Fox gang up on Trump saying he has disrespected the Khan family and owes them an apology. Libs have called for him to quit the campaign. Out comes CNN poll two days after the Khan character belittled Trump and called him every name in the book and one day before the Papapoplusplus interview. Clinton has picked up 13 points in one week and the RNC convention is panned, and more dislike Trump after the convention than before. Pence is depised by 3/4ths of the voters. Trump's children are despised. And it goes on today. Will it ever end. And can anyone tell me what Trumps said that was the worst thing said in the history of the world? Just wondering.

Gee, what a shock!

[dware]

Does it matter? The fact is, it works. We can piss and moan about it all we want, but it won’t change anything.

[Right Wing Assault]

They think this is going to keep Trump voters away, maybe? No, I think it will ensure they come out.

[longfellow]

He should have told steponallofus to go F-! himself and the khans also. I am sick of them trying to get us to bow down to these animals.

[Son House]

They’ve got to console themselves given the reality of the dreary campaign rallies.

This post is for FR Conspiracy Nuts, a large group of which I admit to being a long term member. (And this time we are right.)

I’ve posted this image before. It is the current version of the Trump vs. Hillary Real Clear Politics Polling Average Plot.

Note what happens when Trump gets close to 44%, close to Hillary, or if Hillary starts to fall below 44%.

For those who can't read graphs I'll provide the answer:

Hillary gets a sudden bounce in several polls that are used in the RCP Average.

Coincidence? I think not. The actual truth is probably very close to a line right down the middle of this plot: 44% to 44%. Close. But given the known bias of the media/polling firms Trump is likely ahead by a point or two.

Just one guy could change the polls . Where is he ?

[C19fan]

Are we back to the Unskew the Polls stuff again? I thought the embarrassment of the Unskew the Polls types in 2012 would end this.

From up Canada way I am reminded of the devastating effect of a false poll years ago. It took place on the East Coast. A phoney polling company was created and three days before the polls opened it forecast a big win for a Leftist party. It worked because the undecided were said to have wanted to get in on the winning side.

The Bandwagon Effect.

I would not put it past the recent polls, knowing the panic that a Donald Trump victory would cause certain people.

[mkjessup]

The manipulation of polling data to favor ‘RATS should come as no surprise, and for those MSM polls who might occasionally show Trump ahead?

THOSE polls are only to lull the Trump campaign and their supporters into a false sense of security, and to make the ‘RAT voters work harder. This is not even as slick as a game of Three Card Monte by a turn of the century con artist on a street corner, but the naive among us fall for it every time.

The careful selection of ‘random’ voices on the street are all scripted and carefully arranged prior to their appearances on whatever ‘big show’ is planned, and I would bet the rent that ALL of the ‘RAT libtard media mouthpieces had a heads up from their ‘RAT masters PRIOR to that Muzzie scum Khan making his appearance and waving his little $1 copy of the Constitution around.

Remember the final scene in ‘The Sting’ when the big mark (Lonnegan, played by Robert Shaw), loses his money, and the fake gunplay that ensued, resulting in the ‘deaths’ of Hooker and Gondorff? (Redford and Newman respectively)

They hustle the mark out of the place, and then the ‘FBI agent’ (Dana Elcar) reveals himself as just another member of the gang. The orchestration and planning was epic. And it has been going on for years and years between the ‘RATS and the media, and you and I my FRiends, were the marks, along with the rest of the American people.

No more. This election is going to be different, and Donald Trump is going to put an end to this corruption once and for all.

Believe it.

The only polls that matter are the ones taken in November..

[Biggirl]

This is desperation on the old msm part. Mr. Trump will win it.

[AC86UT89]

Too bad they’re not factoring in voter intensity.

I never particularly liked Trump. Many of his views do not align with mine. I doubt he would be able to get much done as president given that everyobody seems to be against him including his own party.

But after seeing the massive piling on by the kneepads media, flat-out lying about what he has said at rallies, ignoring the actual crimes by the other candidate - serious crimes that would land anybody else in prison, the blatant and shameful corruption of our government - I am mad as hell and I CAN’T WAIT TO VOTE FOR TRUMP.

Bump for reference

[Carthego delenda est]

They absolutely have to slant the polls. If polls were to show Trump consistently leading, and then on election night Hillary wins, everybody will know it was a rigged election. They cannot get away with stealing the election by programing the voting machines if every poll shows Trump leading. The two have to match to keep the masses from revolting.

These polls had the same or similar ratios in 2012 and we whined then. But while maybe not spot on in terms of Romney’s defeat, he none-the-less experienced defeat.

[Roccus]

Does anyone in their right mind think DEMOCRATS will have more people voting this year than Republicans?

Whether Republican or Democrat, the number of people voting doesn't matter.

How those people vote doesn't matter.

The only thing that matters is who gets the most certified votes.
