I can’t believe the polls because no one in their right mind could vote for Biden with the damage done to this country and the physical and mental state of the guy.

Granted the left doesn’t have a mind, let alone a right mind.

Laughable. Trump leads by a lot more than that here in North Carolina.

It’s not Biden they are voting for, it’s Trump they are voting against, they could literally run any Democrat and the polls would be about the same.

Recent history should have opened the eyes to anyone paying attention is they are not meant to detect support for a candidate but to drive a narrative.

Between now and Labor Day, Trump will have a slight lead in the polls, the polls are meant to scare the crap out of Democrats, after Labor Day the polls will tighten considerably with the narrative that Biden is gaining momentum, come election day the polls will be neck and neck and to close to call.

Polls conducted by Left and Right leaning pollsters are all the same, they are designed to show a narrative and sell the services of that pollster.

Agreed, this is the same play book used in 2020. Biden isn’t running, he wasn’t in 2020 either. The Liberal machine is what one. hence Biden/Kamala ticket. They could wheel his corpse out into the rotunda and he’d still win.

A couple of wildcards exist that could upend the narrative for Republicans and Democrats.

No one will take RFK Jr. seriously, it remains to be seen how much support he could gain, it would not take much to alter the outcome of the election.

Recent history shows a 3rd party candidates can alter the outcome, look at what Ross Perot did to Bush Sr. and in 2000, Ralph Nader who only got 1-2% of the vote could have swung the election to Bush Jr.

If RFK Jr. gets anywhere near 10% of the votes, all bets are off.

The other wildcard is war and US involvement and potential terrorist attacks inside the USA.

In a college poll of course - in real life without gaslight try 8 or 9 points.

I will have to see it to actually believe that some people will vote for Biden.

Republicans need to get a message out?

If allowing millions of invaders in and not being able to afford groceries is not a message delivered, then those type of people are immune to any message.

No matter what the polls say, the Democrats are stuck with Biden, Bidenomics, an invasion at the southern border, sky-high grocery prices, higher gas prices, higher rent prices, plus wars and rumors of wars. What they DON’T have this go-round is COVID to gin up fear. They also don’t have X (Twitter) to drive the narrative and censor things they don’t like. If Trump can stay focused on the bad economy, the border, and the threat of war, he’ll win.

Living in NC leads me to say there is NO WAY IN HELL that quid pro joe can win here. You NEVER see a bumper sticker for biden. You never see a yard sign for biden. You never hear anyone talking about how good biden is doing.

‘Course it was that way in 2000 too. And when Pat McCrory was running for his last bid as gubner, it was the same. On election night at about midnight McCrory came out to speak, we all thought he was gonna declare himself the winner, instead he announced some more votes had come in. I knew right then that the steal was on.

Mark Robinson is going to take the governor seat. This affects the presidential ballot.

Don’t underestimate Biden voters.

I was trying to explain to a Biden voter how velocity of an object is described.

I said if a car is traveling down the interstate at 100 kilometers per hour then in one hour it travels 100 kilometers.

She said there’s no way anyone could know that.

She’s a teacher, and I am not joking.

Since you are unhappy with Trump being ahead in this poll, would Trump being behind make you happy?

Math is white.

How much is 2 + 2?

Mathematician: 4
Engineer: 4.000
Democrat: Whatever the AP, NBC, CBS and ABC says it equals.
Libertarian: Whatever it wants it to be.
Republican: Whatever God says it is.
Green: The end of the Earth.
Cornel West: That’s not part of my reality.
RFK Jr: The FBI should reveal the answer.
Joe Biden: Could you repeat the question?
Hunter Biden: We ARE talking of millions of dollars?
Kamala Harris: Some people say, cackle, cackle, four. Others, cackle, cackle, snort, an indeterminate amount. But, if it should be necessary, cackle, snort, cackle, I am ready to say what it’s equal to.

Baris: Trump is up 6

But when you factor the drip drip drip of steadily increasing GOP registration over DemoKKKrat registration, that may be low in November. D margin is just over 100k now.
