I don’t go with polls. However any poll that is favorable to Trump I will automatically consider he’s even doing better than what they’re reporting.

Pelosi’s had her pants in a knot for months......he’s a formidable foe to her because she can’t manipulate him. She’s always believed she can get what she wants and Trump simply stops her in her tracks.

After the 2016 election I don't trust any poll regardless of who it benefits. Best to ignore them all, run like you're 2 points behind the entire election season, and you'll usually come out OK at the end.

Because even the CNN poll had to admit that Trump had gained 10pts on Biden and was tied with him in the swing states. Frankly, polls are meaningless, we are looking for trends. And the trends are good.

If the individual polls are meaningless then why should the trends be any more accurate?

I predict that all will be revealed on the night of November 3rd, or early morning November 4th.

Until that happens, I haven’t a clue. All I have is hope.

The choice cannot be clearer.

Trump wins, America wins and our Constitutional Republic form of Governance will stand for at least another four Years.

Trump loses, America as we knew her is finished and our Constitutional Republic will dismantled and thrown on to the trash heap of History.

Polls are snapshots and are dependent on the way the questions are asked. Trends are clearly seen, like Blacks not coming out to vote for Biden in the same numbers Hillary had.

Well I just watched “Trumped” - The Political Upset of All Time by the two who covered “The Circus”...

Fascinating seeing the backstage of the backstage of the 2016 election. One of the things noteworthy was the last months of the campaigns was all about ‘stopping Trump’...and it was also when the Dems planted their thugs in the rallies to create violence. That needs to be remembered.

Now, for four years they've continued to try and stop Trump via, Russia-gate, Impeachment, Scandal, etc. unsuccessfully and resorted to creating the riots we now see in the major cities as a repeat for the last four months.

Their tactics have not changed.....when all else fails politically they will and do create chaos and destruction across the country and of course lay it at the foot of Trump creating it when in fact their history shows clearly they are creating and orchestrating their usual tactics of destruction.

But if polls are inaccurate then your trend is built on information you believe to be wrong.

It’ll be interesting to see the Black turnout in this election. But Democrats may have it covered by having 110% voter participation in big cities in an attempt to steal the election.
Even more interesting will be what percentage of the Black vote goes for Trump.

I would expect, tho, that the two would be inversely correlated - that if Trump were to draw, say, 15% of the black vote (which by itself would doom the Democrats to a rout) the black turnout would also be down, for want of typical enthusiasm among blacks for Democrats. Which would also hurt DemoCongresscritters as well.

Best thing that could happen would be that the Republicans also hold the Senate and win the House - and that their margin of victory in the House consisted of black conservatives like Senator Tim Scott. Even better, not that it would happen, would be for the Republicans to elect such a person to the speakership next January.

In that scenario Trump’s education choice agenda would come to fruition, and the Democrats would be painfully on the defensive in their big-city strongholds in ’22 - and the “Republicans are racist” dog would never hunt again.

Those who thought that electing BHO POTUS would accomplish that were deluded; only black Republicans attaining power can do it.

Come to think of it, the most powerful thing the Republicans could do at the RNC would be for the House Minority Leader - who is in line to be Speaker of the House if the Republicans win the majority - would announce that he would support that very thing. Perhaps in the form of supporting Tim Scott’s resigning from the Senate to become Speaker of the House (which office, ironically, is not constitutionally required to be filled by a member of the House).

No, trends take in a much longer period of time. A poll is a snapshot for a moment. That is why they are so volatile
