This is misleading. I know people like to point to 2016 for comfort but Trump is down way more to Biden than he was to Clinton in the average of polls. Sure a poll here or there showed Trump down 15pts or something but most showed a closer race and trump actually led a few polls. Trump did well in swing states.

This year EVERY poll is double digits or high single Digits. Biden is up 10pts in the polling average whereas Trump was down about 5 points in the the AVERAGE This time in 2016.

Yes, you can believe the polls. They’re extremely accurate reflections of reality allowing for direct comparison between the polls of different years. They’ve been shown to be 99.87% accurate over time, according to my own poll.

This is misleading.

No. You are misleading.

I know people like to point to 2016 for comfort but Trump is down way more to Biden than he was to Clinton in the average of polls.

Um, no.
On June 26 2016, Trump was down 12% to Hilary Clinton on the average.
On the same date (June 26 2020), Trump was down 9.5% to Biden on the RCP average. Trump is actually doing better this year than he was in 2016, by 2.5%. Even if we accept the fake polls, which I don't accept for one minute.
What say you troll?

There are polls then and now showing Trump with less than 40%. He got 46% of well distributed support. Thats simply not right. There are polls now showing Trump ahead in critical states and only down 4% national i a registered voters polls. The idea that they were giving a fair state of the race at any given moment a a bold faced lie. If you were paying attention 4 years ago you would have had the impression that Trump had no chance to win and no viable path to 270. Yours is a revisionist version of reality. The polls, at the very least the perception given by the media is that Trump has no chance this year again.
