I’m typically one that says “Believe the polls! Fake or not! It will only result in our side working harder and in the end win by an even bigger margin”

I can’t even come close to thinking that with this CNN poll. “Clown News Network” is well stated. A joke!

Here’s a question for you:

You think the media is coming out with these fake numbers in order to create disbelief and make room for conspiracy theories when the actual election result numbers come out and Trump actually wins?

Is this all to give Speaker Pelosi an opening to come out and point out that there is something just not right after all the polling data had Biden winning and Trump still wins the election.

Will there be investigations over the disagreement between the pre-election polling data and the actual election results?

This was originally the plan-—I didn’t include it in my thread/article cuz it was already running long-—but the whole thing blew up.

But yes, the polling was a key to preparing the ground for the (now failed) strategy.

Many thanks for that analysis!!

One key item from the Biden scandals is that it provides a narrative for Biden’s loss.

>>These poll numbers could be nothing more than Democrats saying Trump stole the election.

Could be, that’s what the Left was citing in 2016 to claim that Trump stole the election because the rigged polls showed he was going to lose.

Then again even in 1980 Tom Brokejaw and others were dumbstruck when Reagan swept the board. On election night the “journalists” claimed that no one saw this coming, that there was no indication, blah blah blah.

Time magazine showed Hillary 14 points ahead of Trump just 12 days before the 2016 election, and we know how accurate that was.

I have wondered this. Step One - Polls show an easy Biden win. Step Two - Biden still loses. Step Three - Shout “FIX!!” riot and litigate, since the polls showed a big Biden win, and thus Trump had to have cheated.

Yep. That's why all we're hearing about now are polls, polls, and more polls. It's a set-up and this is the prep work. The lawyers and rioters will charge out of the gate on November 4th.

Well, duh.

Now he’d write:

Keep their certainty.

Likely cover for massive voter fraud. “See, we told you Biden was going to win!’

“Are the FakeNews Polls a Setup for Post-Election Chaos?”

yes indeed ... just like they were in 2016, giving the Dems the excuse to accuse Trump of what they themselves had actually been doing during that election, namely “russian collusion”,which was the ONLY possible explanation of why the polls HAD to be correct vs. an election “obviously stolen by the russians” ...

don’t know if they’ll persist with the russian meme this time when Trump wins, but that fool schiff is already claiming the hunter emails are “russian disinformation” ...

90% of the public no longer will talk to pollsters.

The poll results we’re seeing are from just that 10% of the public who are willing to spend half an hour with someone they don’t even know answering like 100 questions.... Who *are* these people?

Anyway, even if the pollsters are on the up-and-up, like Rasmussen (?), no way are they capturing what the 90% think.

“Biden will not be someone people will want to be caught fighting for.”

True. But Trump, to them, is someone they love fighting against.

Joondeph is good. I always read his column when it comes up.

I agree with his summary of the battlefield.

There will be riots and fire and blood in the streets when the President is declared victorious.

Biden will take Hillary’s advice and refuse to concede.

It’ll be an uncivil war.

Gird yer loins, lads, and sharpen you swords. Shields up. Photon torpedoes armed. Ready to engage.

Polls are to elections as flirting is to marriage.

I mentioned that a couple of months ago as the reason behind the polls.

I think they will continue to double-down also to discourage Trump voters. The thought that Trump voters will see showing up on Nov 3 as a lost cause because he’s so far behind “in the polls” is what keeps me up at night (well, along with a bazillion other frightening scenarios about the fate of our beloved country).

I on the other hand think it’s democrats that won’t show up to vote for their senile self dealing compromised gaffe machine candidate.

Democrats have taken coronavirus more seriously than Republicans have. I think they will be more afraid to go to the polls on election day than Republicans. And for what? Biden/Harris?

They’ve been operating in a seditious manner since 2016.

Draw and quarter em all.
