Internals are for the campaign only. If they are ahead or behind either way they are just what the name says they are. All you’ll ever get are winks and nods that are off the record and non-specific, so that supporters won’t get demoralized by believing ginned up polls for the Democrats.
You don’t want the bitter opposition to have anything you hire researched for your eyes only. In order to “prove” the validity of anything you release, you would have to include the details of what you’re doing. That’s politics, to not let them in on the nitty gritty, good or bad for your side.
That internal polls aren’t officially and precisely released doesn’t concern me at all.
Exactly. Why would DT be smart enough to not warn ISIS let out his inside polling info critical to gotv strategies.
If one side conducts internal polls showing the real numbers, wouldn’t the other side do the same? Ergo, wouldn’t the bitter opposition know the same thing you know?
The bottom line is each side wants to know the truth. The polls are used to herd the sheep. This is a different time. The real numbers should be put out. If Trump is way behind then tell us and let’s work harder. If he’s winning then tell us and let’s stay the course.
We know that if Trump were to release his true numbers the press wouldn’t cover it. So he’d have to do it on the internet and in ads. If his numbers are not encouraging then I can see him trying to get out the vote. But at this point I don’t believe anyone who supports Trump is not going to vote. So, he needs to be truthful about it, good or bad.
