MSNBC Historian Warns: Many Trump Voters ‘Not Going to Tell Pollsters’
Breitbart ^ | 7/26/2020 | Tony Lee

Posted on 07/28/2020 11:36:22 AM PDT by Roman_War_Criminal

Historian Jon Meacham on Friday evening warned Democrats that even though former Vice President Joe Biden is leading President Donald Trump by double digits in nearly every poll 100 days before Election Day, a lot of people who will vote “for the incumbent are not going to tell pollsters.”

He said on MSNBC that Biden’s “campaign is being careful about this as well” because they know “it’s a long way to go.”

Meacham added that 100 days is “endless” and “an eternity” in a campaign, not the least “because of the tumult of this remarkable year.”

He referenced questions about the economy and the Coronavirus pandemic in addition to “the inherent instability” of the president.

The historian said though there is “something about the American character” that prevents the country from running “in one direction with one party for very long,” Trump has “upended” many norms.

Voters agree with Meacham’s concerns.

That’s what gives me hope President Trump still has a shot at reelection. Praying hard for enough Americans to have enough mental clarity to avoid turning the country over to the enemy. The November election will be a national IQ test.

The Left lies, cheats, and steals. They are thugs and tyrants, bullying their way to power. And they are surprised that people might secretly oppose?

It is your patriotic duty to lie to MSM/Media Pollsters

I do it and well as everyone I know

I told a pollster I was voting for the witch

I will tell a pollster I am voting for Basement Biden

Why?

Let the left think they are ahead by a large margin

This benefits us in the long run

Trump campaigns like no tomorrow

Left gets complacent

The hidden Trump vote is revealed on election day

Victory

Trump is on the ballot, hopefully we take back the house and hold the senate or gain 1 in the senate, I know wishful thinking but you never know this year.

Plus who is going to give the media info on being a trump supporter when they say they want you dead and support the lynch mob killing patriots?

If they have your phone number, they probably have your address as well....

I was gotba call from the Monmouth poll. Said I was voting for Biden. When asked why since I was a registered Repube. I said because Trump is a racist. The Gen Z twit seemed to approve. Dumbass.

And, this Biden 1988 video is fun as well:

I will lie to all pollsters. I suggest others do the same, no matter who they claim they are polling for.

Being in Florida, we get polled more often ..................

Here’s the deal, pilgrim. Someone calls me on the phone and asks me about my opinion on anything, I would slam down the phone. Except - I don’t answer the phone anymore because I am tired of scammers and idiots.

Microsoft keeps calling me...good to see they don’t know I have a Chromebook.... :-)

In the age of doxxing, it is unwise to tell strangers anything about anything.

As an historian he’ll one day note that history records polling as an industry officially died the day Cancel Culture took over and ANTIFA started threatening to bring chaos to the suburbs.

After that nobody is going to answer any questions honestly.

Trump has “upended” many norms.

Yup . . . norms that should have never, ever been made "norms" in the first place. God bless Donald Trump!

Yep - he probably reads my comments. I lie to pollsters any chance I get.

Who here will trust WaPo, NY Times, Gallup or other polls to be accurate? When the corrupt corporate media is simply pushing their own political narrative, why do they deserve anyone’s cooperation?

I couldn’t bring myself to even LIE that I would vote for Hillary, so I chose Jill Stein as my stalking horse.

The loons are loons, most of them are still not even registered to vote, they just want to destroy stuff like they do in their video games in mom’s basement.

They are not voters, very few will even show up.

The problem with the dems they have zero enthusiasm for Biden, nobody really wants to vote for him, but some will vote to vote against Trump

Trump appeals to the labor end of that party as well as the moderates and centrists, you know, the ones who don’t want to kill white people (because they are white themselves).

It is going to be interesting.

Dems are nervous, someone sent out a smoke signal that the rioters are not helping, if in fact causing people to turn on the dems since Trump is making is clear that they are the ones allowing it since they run those cities.

BLM has overstayed its welcome.

Will Biden still have support, sure, but will it be enough for a victory, at this point, I doubt it.

I don’t answer my cell phone at work unless I recognize the number-I do the same when at home with both the cell phone and the land line-I hope that makes me a pollsters’ nightmare-my politics-or anything else, for that matter-are none of their f***ing business...
