A new poll released by NBC claims it found that Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden is leading President Donald Trump by a whopping 14 points.
According to NBC News, this is a post-debate poll that has the calm and cool Biden pulling ahead of that dastardly, bloviating Trump for his biggest lead since July:
Biden is now ahead of Trump by 14 points among registered voters, 53 percent to 39 percent — up from his 8-point lead in the previous poll, before the debate.
The 14-point advantage represents Biden’s largest lead in the NBC News/WSJ poll during the entire campaign; his previous high was 11 points in July.
Left out of this article was the fact that they greatly oversampled Democrats in this poll with a nine-point difference, including independents who lean one way or another, but judging by the nature of the polling, it wouldn’t surprise me to learn that they garnered the information from areas that are bluer than Violet Beauregarde post-Wonka factory visit.
This information is left out of almost every report on the poll from other news sites that I came across as well.
The poll is hot garbage and NBC knows it. It’s likely that many of the outlets reporting on it know it too, but they’re going to report this “good news” regardless.
If I polled people outside of a cat convention about whether they preferred cats or dogs, it’s likely that I’m going to come across far more cat people than dog people. I cannot then take the results and declare that all of America likes cats more than our K-9 companions. It’s a lopsided poll that effectively puts dog lovers in a position to be underrepresented.
That’s exactly what NBC did, and I can’t help but think it was on purpose.
Judging by what I’ve seen in the media and political circles by Democrats as of late, this poll’s usefulness will come in handy after the election, not during.
As Hillary Clinton said not long ago, Biden should not concede the election under any circumstances. Judging by the political kerfuffle surrounding the supposed attacks by Trump on our post office while they simultaneously push the easily fraudulent vote-by-mail tactic, it’s not hard to see that they’re setting up to do exactly what Clinton suggested.
Rejecting the election results at all costs can’t just happen in a vacuum. There needs to be “evidence” that Trump’s reelection was illegitimate. With the “attack” on the post-office making it seem like Trump interfered with the vote-by-mail process we have the “how.” Now, with this NBC poll, Democrats have the “why.”
They can now say Biden was so popular and that Trump winning doesn’t make any sense unless he cheated.
Normally, I would say this seems a bit on the tinfoil hat side of things but the fact that Democrats are openly cheering on the idea of rejecting the decision made by the American people makes this idea entirely plausible, if not probable. Democrats have been trying every dirty trick in the book to get Trump out, and purposefully oversampling Democrats in a poll to make it seem like Biden is far more popular than he actually is well-within bounds for the left.
We may see even more polls from various networks doing the same thing in the coming days. You’re going to see a lot of claims that Biden is wildly more popular than Trump with every poll having sampled Democrats by a much larger margin than Republicans. You’ll see it begin the development of a narrative that, once Trump wins, will be the central point of the Democrats’ rejection of the election results.

It’s not a poll of opinions, it’s propaganda intended to create opinions.
“Here in Texas there are ten times more Biden signs than there were Hillary signs in 2016”.
In your area or all over Texas?
I’m more shocked this didn’t come from CNN, the undisputed leader of the Democrat media cabal against Trump.
This WSJ/NBC poll takes the term outlier poll to new heights. How outlier is it? The poll is so outlier they have yet to discover a planet in the solar system far beyond Pluto to park it
They are right, there is a plan, but I think they missed the real plan in this article. The plan is to make Biden winning a plausible outcome, so massive election fraud will be accepted by the American people. In my opinion Trump is more popular than he was 4 years ago, and would easily win a completely honest election.
Fox News panel was all excited about this poll...Bert Baier..
Trump is like the last man standing...sure hope there is a huge silent Trump support out there....
Why do they even bother to ask people? It would be so much easier to simply make up the numbers out of thin air.
President Trump supporters are not telling pollsters they are for him.
Dallas.
Our HOA, in our gated neighborhood, has to approve all sign sizes and thereby keeps a record. We have right at 10 times the number of Biden signs as we did Hillary signs at this point in the month of Oct.
Only in our area.
LOL...must stink to be in Dallas.
Here in the Houston area.....we see NO Biden signs, or bumper stickers.
In fact....while driving through a predominantly Dem area, a couple of weeks ago, we actually saw a Trump sign, in a corner lot yard!
We go back and forth between Hill Country and Houston area and we’ve seen NO Biden signs, but PLENTY of YUGE Trump signs, and bumper stickers, along the highways and byways.
Sounds like you need to move.
Anytime a poll will not publish its internals relative to percentages of Republicans Democrats and Independents and most importantly likely voters THE POLL IS POLITICAL CRAP MEANT TO INFLUENCE AND NOT GIVE REAL POLLING. In the words of my Sainted Grandfather from the 60s, “He is lying Son of a Bitch.”
You know what's weird about the Biden/Harris signs around here?
They're in white lettering on a dark blue background, except the "E" in "Biden" is picked out in dark red. So under inadequate lighting or from a distance, the sign appears to read "BID N HARRIS."
This time around, the polls will show Biden up by 5-10 points, leading up to the election.
That way, when the results of the election come back with Biden the winner, they can point back to the polls to back up the Biden win. IOW, fake polls to back up a fake win. But, the fake win will stand, since republicans won’t contest the election results, other than issue verbal protests.
The Biden Harris signs with the three red bars for the letter “E” have been likened to this:

Mao’s symbol for The Great Leap Forward which killed millions as he transformed China in the 1950s.
Let them think Biden is ahead. Maybe even go around and tell your liberal friends that.
Between them thinking that their guy is ahead and the fear of getting sick should keep Democratic turnout on Election Day at historic lows.
I have two questions. Does anyone think there are more than a handeful of Trump voters from 2016 who won’t vote for him this time around? Does anyone really think Biden is going to draw more women, black or hispanic votes than Hillary?
