Trump campaign knocks Fox News after polling shows Harris lead in battleground states
The Hill ^ | 08/29/24 10:18 AM ET | by Dominick Mastrangelo

Former President Trump’s campaign is attacking Fox News after the network released polling this week showing him trailing Vice President Harris in several key battleground states ahead of November.

“It’s that time of year again. Fox is releasing atrocious polling,” the campaign said in a statement Thursday. “President Trump continues to outperform polling from past cycles.”

“President Trump is 10 points ahead of where he was in Arizona at this point in 2020, according to Fox. Likewise, he is running 8 points ahead of his 2020 polling in Nevada and 5 points ahead of his 2020 polling in North Carolina,” it added.

The statement was in reference to a poll released Wednesday showing Harris ahead in three of the four key Sun Belt states — Arizona, Georgia and Nevada — and with an overall lead of 1 point. In previous Fox News polls, President Biden was trailing Trump in all of the four states in head-to-head match-ups.

Fox doesn’t give a damn if their polls are always wrong. They have been given their orders.

No. He TOOK the long-term contract because of his greed. The contract wasn't offered to him because he was greedy.

He was offered the contract because he was a mouthpiece for the Deep State and the Swamp.

Fox lost credibility a few years back.

All part of Fox’s plan to attract more Democrats to their network.

Who answers polls on a cell phone? These are biased polls in exchange for Big Revenue for Political Ads.

If I recall Fox has pretty bad polling in general but there is really no reason to bother complaining about it

Fox has to vomit this crap in order to give their RAT pals cover when they steal the upcoming election. Remember, it was the ahos at Fox that “flipped” Arizona for Harris and Joe Pedo.

FOX News polls have a very POOR track record:

They also called states for Joe long before they should have, essentially discouraging folks from going out and voting for Trump beczuse they thought he had no chance of winning since fox czlled the state for biden (late voters)

He was offered the contract because he was a mouthpiece for the Deep State and the Swamp.

He took the contract because he would dance for his benefactor, the same as every other person at Fox.
Here is the agenda for Fox, with a little leeway, and you'll follow it or get fired. It's great infotainment. /Murdoch family

If he is a mouthpiece he is a mouthpiece for establishment Republicans which I consider to be a country club of old men interested in their own survival.

If his benefactor wanted him to sing a pro republican tune he would. Discredit the stolen election claim? Done deal, memo sent. Shut down J6 questions? No problem, fire Tucker. He plays the right for viewership while plunging a knife in their back when told to do so. Principled classic liberal my shiny backside. Just keep watching and keep that ad revenue coming in faithful viewers.

Fox plays on the right's disdain for Ryan waiting to see what he spouts next. Lots of people could do his job yet Fox specifically chose Ryan.

JMO, YMMV

Trump just needs to ignore fake news. Make him more dignified than going after these POS snakes! What needs to happen here is that we need to literally disconnect from Fox fake News let them tumble all the way to zero viewership and Paul Ryan will get the 🥾 boot….that’s the only way!

If Harris is ahead anywhere.. I question the sanity of voters. This is America!! Why would anyone vote for a woman who is not capable of managing a country, and would change this land you live in, to a communist country!?! Why?
Your freedoms would be gone. The land would be full of illegals.. Crime would skyrocket and your safety would be gone. Your taxes would skyrocket and love of country would be gone. It would be dog eat dog, for survival would be by the skin of your teeth.
God would be eliminated and the comfort and home life would be history.
Without God and without conscience, your life would take a drastic step to live in fear of your government and everything around you.
Castro was the favorite in Cuba when he took over. Within 3 days, he rounded up all fire arms, took possessions of all homes and businesses, and put all schools under government controls. The country went downhill quickly. They were driving old cars.. Nothing was new and joy was gone. Those who could, swam to Florida. Anyone who had a boat, came also. Many did not make it in dangerous waters.. But they tried anyway.. To get a life again.
Citizens here in the United States, had better know what Harris has in store for you, given the chance. Realize she is saying anything to get that power over you.. Don’t give it to her with a vote. That frog has been on the burner before.. Wake up and see what is being done.. Stop the take over of every part of your life.
Examine.. Test.. Evaluate.. Look deep at motives, at lies, and what your heart is telling you.

FOX also denied the election was stolen, they refused to even discuss the evidence. That’s when I vowed to never watch FOX ever again….and threw my TV in the garbage, corrupted MSM free for four years.

The best part, discovering many “ honest reporting” news agencies on the Internet, most are foreign news feeds. An absolute disgrace we have to go to foreign news agencies for truthful reporting.
