Da polls, da polls…Hillary is going to be da prez. Oh…wrong poll…sowry. Carry on. :sunglasses:

Which polls can we trust?

Can we trust the Rasmussen poll that Trump tweeted about that had his support among blacks at 36%?

Trump trusted it…should I?

I need the secret decoder ring about which polls to trust.

If polls don’t matter why does Trump post polls that are even remotely close to be positive for him the second they come out? Which now is anything that has him over 45% approval. Even when he has to lie about the numbers(see tweet below of Trump absolutely lying about his overall approval numbers).

Polls tells us what percentage of people who were contacted believe in X. We can then determine based on an aggregate of polls the likelihood of X happening or Y happening.

They don’t tell you what’s going to happen. They never have. The 2016 election didnt change anything in regards to what the science behind polls is.

That being said, the polls leading up to Trumps election were incredibly accurate in regards to what they were measuring.

Well to be fair, pollsters didn’t know Trump was engaged in a criminal conspiracy with his longtime fixer to illegally affect the outcome of the election in his favor. Not that you care about that though.

The polls showed she was more popular nationally, and she was…

The polls in 2016 weren’t wrong. You either don’t know how polls work or you’re just making lame partisan arguments that you know are false.

Why do you think it’s an either or situation?

The national polls were very accurate regarding the 2016 election, The state polls less accurate.

Hence President Donald not President Hillary.

we see how they do in the midterms this out.

Using the word “toady” is a racist dog whistle, you need to apologize.

The polls where right, it just that you can not poll the electoral system where a few 10K votes in 2-3 states swing the election. But her numbers from polls where with in margin or error.

Why does it have to be OR and not a And which I think in his case is more likely.

Yeah…u soooooooooo smart. :sunglasses:

That’s because it isn’t true.

That’s weird because his lawyer just said that’s what happened last week when he plead guilty to the same crime.

Already been debated to death. The Trump-hating statement made by Nebraska simply isn’t true.

National polls were very accurate. Nearly every one got the margin correct.

Let’s check the transcript.
