It seems Joe Biden didn’t like what recent polls were telling him. So he and his staff started claiming they’re fake.
Unfortunately for Biden sycophants, the most recent Rasmussen Poll had Trump up by a gob-smacking +12 in a five-way race. Since it is tough to put a positive spin on something like that, and since there is no such thing as a silent Biden voter, this poll had to be wrong, too.
One of the most interesting things about this particular poll is that it is included in the Real Clear Politics polling average but not in the FiveThirtyEight polling average. Why? Because Rasmussen was banished from the FiveThirtyEight average in March of this year for supposedly being inaccurate, or perhaps it was too right-wing or too Trumpy to suit FiveThirtyEight’s master, ABC News. Speaking of accuracy, FiveThirtyEight is the same polling organization that had Joe Biden up by over 8 points in Wisconsin in 2020, which Joe won by less than a point.
For reference purposes, the Media Bias/Fact Check website claims that Rasmussen is a right-of-center organization. No big surprise there. Media Bias claims that Rasmussen is guilty of “mostly factual” reporting, which is not high praise. But it also said Rasmussen has “high credibility.” Go figure.
If you think that is bad, according to Media Bias, Fox News is the left hand of the devil. Fox is considered extreme right-wing, with “mixed reporting,” and should be regarded as a “questionable” source of information.
By comparison, the New York Times is seen as left-of-center, with a “high level” of reporting, and as one of the most reliable sources of information ever.
After ABC demanded that Rasmussen prove that it was worthy of inclusion in their polling average by divulging its proprietary polling methods,

No one in their right mind would vote for Biden unless AI is voting for them , LOL
“Fox is considered extreme right-wing,”
Now that right there is hernia causing.
Yeah, but Fox + the devil is right on
As to polling who knows. Changes in election laws make polling accuracy even more questionable at best. Believing in polls, whether your candidate is up or down, is a fools errand.
I agree with Biden. The polls may be wrong.
Trump may be up by more than everyone thinks.
RE: Trump may be up by more than everyone thinks.
That’s what the article concluded if you read it till the end.
None of the polls include sampling the 60-million migrant-invader vermin (MIVs) in the country and ready to vote...
Biden is in real trouble right now. He will lose the election despite the democrats cheating. He sucks so bad that he is losing black support in the inner cities. This is a group that votes over 90% democrat faithfully. I always knew Biden would be a one term president. Between being senile and an idiot there’s no way he would get a second term. It took a few years of Biden destroying the country before millions of people realized what all of us already knew about Biden. He’s a morally bankrupt, corrupt, child sniffing moron.
>> That’s what the article concluded if you read it till the end.
I know, because I copied my reply straight out of the article.
It was an experiment to see if anyone else DID read all the way to the end. ;-)
....generally, I agree with everything you’ve written...but that old expression, “Hope for the best but prepare for the worst”.....I think the amount of voter fraud and the skullduggery that the Democrat party will bring to bear in November will give the race to that PoS that currently holds the office of President of the United States....I hope I am totally wrong, but....
HOW many people like myself are hanging up on the polls???
Do you have a landline?
Who has one nowadays? My last one was in 1999, been wireless since.
I get polling calls, can't tell them from spam or scams, so I hang up. Even text asking me to participate. Again, what is legit?
When you add in all the fake votes then the polls show a very wrong result.
Are there really people left that believe elections are anything other than a staged pantomime? I sure don’t know who will be president, but I’m sure the American people will not be the ones doing the selecting.
Truth be told Biden, the MSM and the dems said the same thing 4 years ago and in the end Biden moved into the White House and Trump moved out. Fair or not fair, the republicans thought they had it in the bag just like now.
I appreciate your optimism. I wish I could share it. I’m not sure there is a limit to the ‘margin of cheating.’ Trump could win the actual, legal vote by 20% and the Dhimms would just manufacture 25% more fraudulent ballots.
Nobody went to jail so expect their cheating to be even more bold this time around
There are millions of voters who have left their right mind at home. Rational thoughts bounce off them like bullets off Superman’s chest. Biden will get many tens of millions of votes even without the usual cheating.
