Hi dead corpse. How did the other side fix the polls in 2016 and 2020 to make it appear that Trump had no chance? In 2016, Trump actually won when the polls indicated that Clinton was going to win. And, in 2020, the result was close, when the polls indicated that Biden was going to near landslide. If we’re AHEAD in the polls this year, instead of behind, how does this mean we have no chance?

I don’t claim the polls to mean anything. IMO, polls are:

Infallible oracles of all truth, when they confirm our prejudices

Worthless piles of manipulated fake news, when they contradict our prejudices.

So your #25 is irrelevant to me.

Thanks for asking.

Polls had Trump winning re-election by 5 points. Trump WON, and even increased his totals in battle ground State in 2020... and still managed to somehow “lose”.

Polls are garbage and have been for decades. The only one that counts is the VOTE.
