How ironic is it that the ultra-liberal L.A. Times was one of the few accurate predictors? I’ll have to hand it to them. They did a good job.

President-elect Donald Trump can simply deem to select whoever he desires to present their questions. Can negate the MSM en total.

This is how the Trafalgar Polling Group called it in their final poll posted yesterday: https://twitter.com/trfgrp

Screw them, all of them. They were not polling, they were propagandizing, lying, cheating, misrepresenting.

They should all be shunned and in jail for attempting a coup.

It’s kinda funny.

They make stuff up, they have polls with skewed samples, and then they believe the lies they just made up and actually are surprised that we aren’t buying it.

Where they screwed up:

Vastly undercounted the votes for Trump among black and latino males and latino females

This is a huge earthquake in terms of how to win. All the George Soro's money and influence in the 527's, c4's, all the collusion in the media and the exposed cheaters, fake polls, etc. - they did it all and still lost. EPIC.

Now the DNC is going to rip itself apart and these big donors will be more hesitant to spend the money.

Couldn't be better!

voting machines had that “error” of flipping Trump votes to Clinton

I don't think those were a problem since people saw the error and they were taken to a machine that worked.

I'm worried about the hidden cheating where people were sitting at a table in Philly or Detroit or Cleveland or Broward county filling out ballots. Or the voting machines that show who you voted for but report to the board of elections a vote for the other person.

We need to find a way to stop those.

This is misdirection. Many pollsters slanted their polls to suggest a Clinton win was inevitable to help her.

Exactly, and we have the WikiLeaks emails to prove they were working for Hillary. They chose to take sides, and they need to be shamed forever.

People’s Pundit Daily is national and had been calling it for Trump.

Liars.

Reuters showed a huge drop in Hillary’s support among “likely voters” and a surge for Trump in the last few days. Yesterday they deleted the results that could be seen back to November 3. They still have not put them back up. This was a transparent attempt to suppress the vote.

Trump had long said the polls were biased against him. His claims – dismissed and mocked by the experts – turned out to be true.

All the liars in DC will be making excuses for themselves for months. Of course we won't believe them because they've lied to us AND ABOUT US for years.

Incompetent Idiots allowed their Marxist and Globalist preferences color their actions, rendering those actions not only useless, but counterproductive.
