Supporters who helped Trump win presidency lagging in motivation this year [fake polls]
Al-Reuters ^ | September 8, 2020 6:08 AM | Chris Kahn

With less than two months to go until the U.S. election, President Donald Trump is having trouble energizing his core supporters, especially white voters without college degrees who were key to his victory in 2016, a Reuters polling analysis shows.

The analysis, based on Reuters/Ipsos national opinion polling from May to August and 2016 exit poll data, found that Trump has lost support among non-college educated whites, who made up 44% of the U.S. electorate four years ago and heavily favored the Republican over Democrat Hillary Clinton.

Trump is still more popular with this group than Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, with 46% saying they would vote for Trump, compared with 34% who back Biden. But his 12-point advantage in August is down from a 21-point lead in May, and well below the 34-point advantage he had over Clinton.

What is more worrisome for Trump, however, is that the constituency’s commitment to voting has remained flat this year, while interest has risen among groups that lean toward Democrats: minorities, women, urban and suburban residents and people with below-average incomes. …

BTW, the Daily Wail published the same story verbatim, but their headline is a bit more breathless:
Donald Trump is failing to energize his core white voters, poll analysis finds — while Democrat-backing groups are becoming more motivated
Try looking at the same polls that Don Lemon freaked out over, not Rooters/Ipsos lies.

ha ha.The author is clueless. I was ambivalent about Trump in 2016. I just voted to keep Hellary out of the White House. Now, I’m fired up for Trump big time. He’s the first President since Reagan that has actually done what he said he was going to do. He did so with Dems and the RINOS fighting him every step of the way. NO ONE else could have done what he did in 3 years.

Another narrative the media has been pushing this past Labor Day weekend isthat Trump is losing support among Whites with no college degrees while doing better with college educated ones! They’re setting up the scenario that if they can steal the election they can point to their fake polls and say the results matched their poll numbers! Four years ago non-college Whites were disparaged by the enemedia as the Walmart shopping, gun toting hayseeds who voted in huge numbers for Trump and they claimed college educated ones stayed away from voting for Trump. Now we’re supposed to believe the opposite is true four years later. Translation: Democrats can’t win over blue collar White voters!
