Trump told aides to deny internal polling showed him trailing Biden

President Trump told aides to deny that his internal polling showed him trailing former Vice President Joe Biden in key states, according to a new report from The New York Times.

Later, when the polling in 17 states conducted by Tony Fabrizio leaked, Trump told aides to tell reporters that other data showed him doing better, according to the Times story written by Annie Karni and Maggie Haberman.

The polling reportedly showed Trump behind Biden in a number of the states he needs to take to win reelection, though the Times report did not identify them.

Beyond Trump's internal polling, a series of recent surveys have shown the president trailing Biden in several important states.

First of all I don't believe Trump is trailing Biden, I don't believe he told his people to deny that his internal poll is showing him trailing.

This is more Dem and MSM propaganda and lies, to generate hope and enthusiasm among their voters.

Trump will win in a landslide, but we must not become complacent. Every vote is important and need to make sure to get out and vote to counteract all the Dems fake votes.

Trump’s opponent will not be Biden in any case.
It is clear to me that the AOC Socialist Radicals who have seized control of that party are going to kneecap him long before their convention.

Please let the Dems nominate AOC.... I could see her becoming so unhinged in the face of any challenge, the race would be over before it started.

Oh noes, Trump’s campaign is surely going to implode now!

How often we heard that in 2016 — HERE.

Thanks Innovative. The fake news / partisan media shills saddle on anything that is anti-Trump, so it wouldn't surprise me to learn they're being played like a violin, to help the loser Joe Biden secure the nomination.

Trump is NOT “trailing Biteme.” Not even close.

This is the same polling garbage that had Hagedorn losing in WI; that had the Conservative losing in Australia; that had Brexit losing; that had Rick Scott and Ron DeSantis losing; and on and on.

Now, Trump cannot win a “landslide,” because to do so he would need at least one of three states, CA, NY, or IL. He won’t get any of them. I think he’ll eke out a popular vote majority, but it won’t be 10%. My guess is he finishes with between 320 and 340 EVs-—all of his 2016 states + NH, MN, and possibly ME.

When Nadler with John Dean’s help impeach President Trump, the Democratic Party will nominate Hillary and America will give her her rightfully earned throne.

Trump will not win in a landslide. Our nation is too broken and divided for that.

That said, I'm confident he will win re-election and then the following four years will be very critical to our nation as the question then becomes who will become President in 2025. If we go back to another career politician, we will go right back on the road to socialism and it will be as if the Trump years never happened.

Inflammatory language? In the headline? Why I wonder who their source is to bring such tactics to bear!

“...according to a new report from The New York Times...”

So what probably happened was this:

“Sir, according to these polls you’re trailing Biden!”
“Polls this far out? Who cares? Don’t worry about it.”

Man, I hate the media.

Trump will take both the electoral and the popular by a Reaganesque margin.

Even a lot of Dems, the smarter ones voted for Trump the last time and more will vote for him next time too.

But as I keep saying, we must not get complacent, must be sure to get every vote for Trump.

My perception is that their LIEberal insanity is costing Democrats huge numbers of votes, but the only way we’ll know if it is a true perception is when the votes are counted.

And, you know the Democrats are GOING TO CHEAT!

BIG TIME!

I hope POTUS is ready to challenge Democrat cheating with all the power and influence he can muster!

Our FRee Republic, (such as it is, given the 24/7 assault by LIEberals of both parties) is utterly dependent on a true vote in 2020 in DJT’s and the REAL — that is to say: TRUE PATRIOTIC — Republican’s favor!

Democrats MUST BE CRUSHED in 2020!

We are going to have to endure an avalanche of this phony polling garbage before election day. Just keep in mind what the purpose of it all really is...


Ignore opinion polls.
