Full title: Trump jubilant in tweet blitz over NC victories, calls it ‘big night’ for Republicans

President Donald Trump launched a tweet blitz overnight Wednesday to celebrate party victories in two North Carolina races for U.S. Congress, calling it a “big night for the Republican party.”

Republican Dan Bishop won a tight District 9 race and Republican Greg Murphy was victorious by a wide margin in the state’s 3rd Congressional District, the Charlotte Observer reported Wednesday.

Trump visited North Carolina this week to stump for Bishop, and seemed to take particular pride in defeating Democrat Dan McCready.

“Dan Bishop was down 17 points 3 weeks ago. He then asked me for help, we changed his strategy together, and he ran a great race,” Trump tweeted.

And that’s what’s happening you can account for margin of error but liars corrupt the data skewing it toward predicting just the opposite of what the true sentiment analysis actually is, if enough people lie and it probably isn’t that large of a percentage to destroy the data making it worse than meaningless. That combined with samples that don’t respond polling seems broken

The world of make believe they live in is crumbling. They’ll probably ignore when China collapses.

I think the delicious take away on the fake 17 point difference is that you know some lefty was embracing and celebrating it before the election only to have their head explode the next morning. WHAAAHOPPEN*POP*

If you believe that President Trump would publish a fake poll as being fact, then you are calling our President a liar! Shame on you.

We should embrace the bogus polls. Let Biden or whoever be 10 points ahead of Trump. It’ll make Dems stay home.

What’s interesting is that there don’t seem to be any publicly released polls that show anything close to the 17% deficit. Of those polls that are available, Bishop was down by 4% at the most.

Where did Trump get that 17% number? I assumed he was citing a publicly available poll, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.

I certainly hope Trump didn’t lie about it. Right now I’m not so sure.

Please tell me where than number came from. A link would be helpful.

“Double secret” internal polling?

And let’s see if you can do it without resorting to personal insults.

If Trump lied, then he lied. I will still vote for him. I have been a strong supporter ever since Iowa in 2016, but I always knew that there would be times when he would do or say something that I would not find acceptable. Trump is a man, he is not God. He is far from perfect. I have seen him evolve from a business tycoon to a politician, but that sort of comes with the territory. But he is far, far better than any Democrat, and far better than most other Republicans.

I accept and enthusiastically support him even with all his faults because the alternatives are so much worse, and his record so far is far better than I ever expected.

I don’t bow down before any mortal man.

Trump tweets because by doing so he can bypass the media and get his word DIRECTLY to his followers on social media who number in the area of 100 MILLION.

Without the Social Media all anyone would hear or read is what the biased media want us to hear or read.

I love his tweets. I am just pointing out these early wins will put the Left on alert and motivate them to figure out more corrupt ways to tweak election in their favor. (Ballot harvesting and things like that.)
