Only if that comes from an unnamed source close to the president. ;)
Election polling has always been a mess, even when (moderately) successful. With people the way they are nowadays — with all the “signaling” (my generation calls it “lying”) — there’s no way any poll should be believed without a closer look.
A poll is a tool that can give useful information.
But, and this is a big BUT, when a poll is doctored to show a desired result, it is all but worthless.
How many of the pre election polls in 2016 showed Hillary in the lead, some by double digit margins? How many of those polls had a skewed set of respondents, in which liberal/Democrat leaning voters were over sampled, thus producing a comfortable lead for Hillary?
And what of the motivations of pollsters? If pollsters want to produce a poll showing a certain result, which in turn will drive political debate, they can do so.
How many of you believe that recent Quinipee-ac(sp?) poll, which showed Biden ahead of Trump, 53 to 40%? Was that poll produced to show that , #1 Biden is a clear front runner, and #2 show how unpopular Trump is, thus driving discussion on cable news shows????
