    As I've said before this is like the movie Groundhog Day. We've seen this same scenario four years ago with Hillary. The closer the election gets the less likely it is that the anointed democrat machine candidate can win. Poll after poll is trending in Trumps favor.

    "A new Hill-HarrisX poll conducted August 22-25 (during the most intense part of the rioting in Kenosha) finds that approval of President Trump among black voters is now at 24 percent. That’s an astonishing 9 point jump since the same poll was conducted a mere two weeks before. Support among Hispanics has also grown from 30 to 32 percent."

    https://spectator.org/polls-trump-rising-blm-imploding/



    "A poll released Sunday by The Dallas Morning News and the University of Texas at Tyler showed Trump erasing Biden’s five-point lead among Texans. The former vice president was trailing Trump by two percentage points."

    "Trump's numbers rose by four percentage points since Aug. 28, when only 46% of likely voters said they were satisfied with the president’s job performance and 52% disapproved.

    Trump’s approval rating hit its highest levels since June in the latest poll released by The Hill. In the Sept. 5-8 survey, 47% of registered voters approve of the president’s performance while 53% disapproved."

    • JPMorgan said it sees President Donald Trump's chance of being reelected rising and advised clients on Monday to position accordingly.
    • Investors can expect a 5- to 10-point shift in polling from Democrats to Republicans if people begin to perceive pro-Democratic demonstrations as violent, said Marko Kolanovic, the head of macro quantitative and derivatives research at JPMorgan.

    Trump's approval is higher than Obama's in 2012 when he won in a landslide. And that despite 95% negative press coverage and the opposite for Obama, not to mention a Deep State coup attempt.

    Words have meaning. I suggest you learn the definition of coup.

    Broadly defined it’s the overthrow of a government which is exactly what democrats attempted with their sham impeachment and Russian collusion conspiracy theory.

    "Clayton Thyne and Jonathan Powell's dataset of coups defines attempted coups as "illegal and overt attempts by the military or other elites within the state apparatus to unseat the sitting executive."[1] They arrive at this definition by combining common definitions in the existing literature, and removing specificities and ambiguities that exist in many definitions.[1]"

    I didn’t promote the Hill/Harris X poll. The OP did.

    Did you say the polls are in Trump's favor? Remember what happened in 2016 when the polls were in Hillary's favor? :)

    Trump will win Texas, likely for the last presidential election in either of our lifetimes. I'm saying @ 200K margin (vs 800K in 2016)
    Trump will not get > 12% of the black vote nationally, which would actually be a 50% gain should it be that high...
    Show me ONE state Trump is leading in that he didn't win in 2016... Then I'll show you current polling in Wi, Mi, and Pa (not to mention Fla, Oh, and Ga)

    Anyway you slice it (and I figure that's what Trump does on the golf course... you can tell even from the still pics), it's an uphill climb for an incumbent POTUS...
    You really need to stop touting any poll completed in August as a "new" poll..

    Honestly, who could vote for a Democrat? Especially one who has DEMENTIA....it should be a no-brainer. What is wrong with them?

    What do the following groups have in common? Antifa, Democratic Socialists of America, gun confiscation advocates, the Deep State swamp, social media giants actively censoring conservative voices, Black Lives Matter Global Network (a Marxist organization), Hollywood elites, open borders activists, and the Chinese Communist Party, just to name a few....they all support Biden for president....is this the America you REALLY want?

    Trump is probably ahead by 10 to 20% in reality

    This is an OPINION Article (that is almost a MONTH OLD) Dated August 31st.

    So, why are there you posting it in Current Events?

    There isn't really much to comment on, since the data from last month is stale.

    Carry on.:salute:

    Honestly who could vote for Trump... he's completely unamerican with his latest line about 8 ballots being a reason he'll fight the election results. Hes literally saying something that goes against our American way of life.....

    If BLM was a single-issue organization, I would support them. Opposing abuse of authority should be a nonpartisan issue we can all agree on. I really don't like Trump and think we can do much better. He is still the lesser of evils and the better choice for those with jobs and guns.

    Two words: Crossfire Hurricane. The nation was sold a lie and they told that lie in congressional testimony. If laws were even they'd be treated like Roger Stone.

    But alas, laws are not even in this country.

    Well.... starting in 2016, the democrats have been fabricating and manufacturing garbage to try and reverse the election results at a feverous rate with no results. Escalating the BLM movement is the latest and greatest to create anarchy in our system which again, is showing to be working again the democrats.

    He fought the swamp and the swamp fought back. Fortunately, driving moderate democrats more to the center than ever before. It's a coup attempt, the dem's are just really chitty at it as it has reinforced the Trump base and segregated moderate democrats. This election might just be a referendum of the end of the progressive movement.
