President Donald Trump said Friday that polls showing him trailing Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election were a form of voter suppression.
Trump spoke at the National Rifle Association convention in Dallas, Texas, and he again recounted his upset victory over Clinton as a way to rev up the crowd.
"You weren't sure that Trump was going to win, but you all went out there. You all went out there and you voted," Trump said.
"I remember they came out with a lot of phony polls. You know what that's called? Suppression," he added. "They convince you that you're wasting your time. Why should you vote? Go to a movie instead. Come home, watch the results. Very few of the people in this room and in this country did that, and we really had a big night."
Trump impersonated pollsters saying there was "no way to 270" electoral votes for his campaign.
"They were right. But 306 was OK," Trump said to cheers.
Trump earned 306 votes in the Electoral College to Clinton's 232, although he wound up with 304 after two faithless electors didn't cast their votes for him.
Almost all major polls predicted a Clinton victory before election night, but her "Blue Wall" crumbled as Trump won Iowa, Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, all states President Barack Obama won twice.
Clinton did defeat Trump in the popular vote, however, winning nearly three million more votes. She defeated him by more than four million votes in California, a state neither candidate campaigned in due to the implausibility of a Democrat not winning there.
Trump told the NRA crowd their Second Amendment rights were "under siege" but they would be protected as long as he was in the White House.
"You have a battle to keep your rights, and we're going to keep those rights. You're going to be so happy," Trump said.
No question about it.
He went there.
Good.
And they all go nuts. It's pretty funny as to how stupid they are.
The polls suppressed the vote on both sides. Many Republicans believed the polls and said “why try”.
Many Democrats said “It’s in the bag” and didn’t vote.
But the biggest voter suppression was Hillary’s personality. She just could not do a Barack or Bill, or even a John Kerry.
The MSM has been controlling most information, most polls and all textbooks and all perceptions of little children and most “adults”. It is Mind Control.
That is the communist M.O. which was put into the US “legal” system which no longer is constitutional. Just Laws and Free Press are only to promote the “Truth” (God) but that has been banned for decades now for Stalin’s constitution and Pravda and Rule of Man.
We need to break out of the MATRIX-—the Hegelian Dialectic which includes Fox “News” (LOL). Only Truth will set us Free-—as all Christians used to know. Our Christian Ethic system is the only rational, just, constitutional one, but now it is banned by our “Supreme Court” !!!
I love it when Trump states the Truth which he does on occasion. We erased the Trivium from our educational “system” because of the communist John Dewey, the sodomite, atheist takeover, so most people are incapable of knowing when they “hear” the “Truth”. They can’t even tell good from evil anymore (are incapable of understanding the Wisdom of Western Civilization). Now the State completely controls almost everything we do, since we are almost completely enslaved.
“Trump impersonated pollsters saying there was “no way to 270”....”
Lol.
Best President evah!
Keep it up, Mr. President. It needs to be done.
Candidate Trump should have had the Electoral Votes from New Hampshire too, but Same Day Registration combined with Liberal Massholes taking a little Drive to commit Voter Fraud stole those from him.
Probably cost us a Senate Seat as well.
Fixed.
Like dogs chasing their tails.
None of the people I know didn’t show up to vote, because they thought Trump wasn’t going to win. I’m sure most Hillary supporters also voted. I was surprised that Pat Buchanan thought Trump had no chance, since Pat ran twice.
I agree with Trump’s statement about the media, but I meant that people I knew didn’t think Trump had no chance.
Clinton did defeat Trump in the popular vote, however, winning nearly three million more votes that’s not how the Constitution provides for the election of the President and so the popular vote means nothing.
...
That’s like reminding people that the losing football team gained more yards. Of course that never happens, but the corrupt press brings up the popular vote every time.
“Clinton did defeat Trump in the popular vote, however.....”
...however id you eliminate the illegal alien voter fraud in California you wind up with a tie...
John Podesta’s Wiki-leaked E-mails had him urging the media to inflate Hillary’s lead in the polls.... neither was true....she wasn’t in the lead nor was she ahead....
I’m very unhappy the NRA didn’t have a decent acoustics at their convention...sounds like Trump gave a vintage speech but every clip I’ve listened to has an annoying echo.

The media shills wouldn't call Pennsylvania for Trump on election night, slow-walking/foot-dragging to delay as long as possible, even though it was obvious that Pennsylvania put him over the top. Thanks MarvinStinson.
CNN, Disney, and Comcast all participated in the misrepresentation of the outcome.
Are you a Comcast a subscriber?
Do you believe it’s safe to take your family to Disney?
If you don’t give a #, you’re part of the problem.
This is the 50th anniversary of the MLK and RFK killings that triggered abridgment of the Second Amendment then.
No further abridgement of the Constitution is needed.
The bump stock thing was stupid, Mr. President, as well as your raging comments about getting the guns and what not.
I don’t want to hear you saying anything like that again or making any new rules like “bump stocks”.
‘The MSM has been controlling most information, most polls and all textbooks and all perceptions of little children and most adults. It is Mind Control.”
One aspect of this not discussed here much but that is a big part of the MSM agenda is health care. The mainstream medical model is seriously flawed, outside of emergency care. Big Pharma is a big part of the Deep State. The multi-billion dollar alternative care field is shut out of the MSM.
