So many GOP are busy fighting Trump, not fighting Democrats, and not interested in fighting for Americans.

I don’t believe this poll or any of the polls, but it shouldn’t even be a question if R’s will win, but by how much.

Why aren’t R’s 50 points ahead, you might ask?

Seriously, what do people want? Trump has given them more jobs, lower taxes, a booming economy and stock market. EVERYBODY should be able to agree & want this to continue.

He has done A LOT more than the above, but at least can’t Americans agree on these & that they are better off. Why would you want to go backwards?

I don’t care how bad the coach is, if you keep winning & dominating, you keep the coach.

NBC/WSJ is one of the least accurate polls.

Its methodology is always a joke.

Remember Monmouth? They predicted a double-digit win for Conor Lamb in CD-18.

In reality, he eked out a single digit win.

Don’t worry about it. Democrat polls are always off by a considerable factor.

And in 2016 none of them foresaw the Trump win.

It would be helpful if Congress, all of it, would get motivated. We need a full court press by all!

Just another fake poll. They will keep rolling them out. I think we will see a summer of democrat corruption on parade. Expect the polls to become even more fake. They must keep up the spirits of their base up or at least their anger.

Hint: The part of Congress that is dragging their feet is part of the Swamp.

Let me clarify, I love Trump & think he is doing a fantastic job. I was using the "bad coach" analogy for those who dislike him. Not me.

“Democrats enjoy a 10-point advantage over Republicans in congressional preference for the 2018 midterm election”


Isn’t this the same group of pollsters, with the same shewed sampling method, that stated with certainty that Hillary would crush Trump?

Never ever underestimate your enemies, as this is the worst mistake anyone can make. Not to mention that overconfidence has killed many a cat.

Virtually none of the “polls” are trustworthy anymore.

Neither are the elections.

The Democrats failed in 2016 because they did not cheat enough in the right states. They won't make the same mistake in 2018.

And they are running younger, more attractive candidates who make all the right conservative noises to sooth the voters. The Leftists still control all of our major institutions and they can lie with impunity to confuse or influence the "Independent" voters.

Democrats can get real turnout in addition to illegal or imaginary voters. Republicans cannot allow themselves to get complacent.

Fake or not, let’s not take anything for granted. If we let the Dems win, it will be impeachment time.

Gotta go almost to the bottom of the PDF but the sample was 41% Democrats and 33% Republican. They even found 4% more Clinton voters than Trump voters in their sample.

I don’t trust polls at all.

But at the same time, I also do not trust the GOP at all.

However, I will be voting for my congressman, Gaetz, in 2018. I like that guy.

The MSM-Democrats had stories about how Nancy Pelosi was measuring her old office for curtains back in the late winter and early spring of 2012, and 2014, and 2016.

This type of story is perfectly predictable. They run a whole bunch of them every two years at this time.

The whole point of them is to (a) help the Democrats raise money, (b) depress Republican fundraising, and (c) to depress our side and make us feel like there's no hope.

When the Democrats hold the legislature, the MSM makes it seem like that's the way it should be, and that's the way it will always be.

When Republican hold anything, the MSM-Democrats make it sound like it's a temporary aberration that will soon be corrected by the Laws of Physics.

This time of year, it's too far from the election for anyone to even remember how silly the MSM sounded when their predictions turn out to be remembered.

Election day 2018 is 233 days away.
