    As an initial point, remember the only day that a poll matters is election day. Request an absentee ballot and fill it out or make sure you vote in person. I would say that you bring 2-3 of your friends with you, but just hound their asses until they confirm that they voted instead.

    This analysis comes from the most recent New York Times/Sienna College poll which found Biden up on Trump by a YUGE 14 point margin. But it makes a great deal of sense given that Trump is a whiny little bitch of a corrupt liar who is also a ****ing racist moron.

    Trump has spent every minute of his candidacy and presidency trying to reinforce the appeal amongst his true believers and that plan is currently backfiring.

    I actually like him.

    But I won't be voting for him.

    He's not an Obama-level war criminal, but too much blood for my taste.

    I liked Obama too, but those war crimes - not sexy.

    Leftists think they can win on hate. I hope they keep pushing that boulder up the hill.

    Biden has nothing except mush between his ears.

    Trump's electoral problem: Too many people hate him

    And all of them love Biden? Am I the only person who is embarrassed at the quality of candidates we allow into our elections?

    The mainstream media promotes hate of Donald Trump 24-7. When President Trump has a Press Conference or meeting of importance, I often watch to hear what is said. I always turn to Mainstream to see what they are viewing. Most often they don't allow you to hear what Trump is saying. They are spewing hate on another subject, then after they have time to set up their narrative, they report what Trump said. That is their mode of operation. President Trump often tweets so those hooked on MSM can get an unfiltered view of what he has said. The $$$$ing racist morons control MSM as well as BLM and as I said, they promote hate and their Marxist narrative 24-7.

    THE SWAMP IS BEING DRAINED!!!

    Trump being down by 14 points in this poll is very much in line with a whole host of polls, but as I said, the only day that a poll matters is election day.

    The swamp is being filled with corrupt politicians who are solely loyal to donald trump.

    It is the height of ignorance to claim that the reason people hate trump is because of the "media." With as many options as people have for consuming their news or hearing from trump directly, it makes absolutely no sense to think that people's opinions are being convinced to hate trump by some ill-defined reference to the "media."

    The majority does not believe that Biden is incompetent and certainly not more incompetent than donald "disinfectant injector" trump.

    And it is not a matter of winning based on hate. It is matter of Trump not winning because of hate. If you strongly disapprove of a candidate, how is that candidate ever going to convince you to change your mind? Not that Trump tries.

    And while hate may not win you an election, fear definitely will make up for any difference in enthusiasm.

    No, those who hate Trump do not all love Biden. But if you must choose between someone you hate or a person with a pulse that you do not hate, you are much more likely to choose the person that you do not hate.

    I think you have it backwards. Surely nobody awake the last 4 years could think Trump has made any effort to win new voters to his side. Hes been 100% focused on appealing to only his base.

    First time? More time than not I am disappointed with our choices. I think this idea inspired that South Park election episode choosing between a giant dou.che and a Turd Sandwich.

    I'll probably be wearing a mask when I vote for Trump.

    Really? All the jobs for Blacks, Latinos, Asians, and of course Whites suddenly don't count? The massive rebound doesn't count?

    First Step Act... doesn't count?
    $$$$ for Black Universities and Colleges... doesn't count?
    Opportunity Zones.... doesn't count?

    You are either ignorant to what he has actually done, or you just blindly ignore it, because Orange Man bad.

    The truly competent people are smart enough to avoid the election process. The media has pretty much run them off. The media profits from being able to cover incompetent politicians.

    But they are pushing Biden as the candidate of non-hate, I.E. the anti-Trump...

    That doesn't seem to jive with your theory...

    Also, absolutely any attack on Biden's supposed mental state can boomerang on Trump... I mean, you HAVE to see that, right?

    Somebody just needs to be sure and plug Joe into his pulse re-charger at night...

    :)

    Remember, Joe Biden is as good a man as God ever created....

    Nah, I don't blame the media, I blame the voters. We get what we deserve. No one cares about substance or policy anymore. It is about being entertained. People eyes gloss over when candidates talk about policies and details. They want quick little snippets that support their world view and that is what the media gives them.

    The voters can only choose the names printed on the ballots. The problem occurs way before the voters become involved. Imagine what would happen if neither Trump or Biden received a single vote. That might start some reform. But we don't reform things, do we?

    The Silent Majority doesn't. They shocked the world once and will do it again November 3rd.

    ...how does 3 million fewer votes equate to a "majority?"

    There's no sign of 'hidden' Trump voters

    Yo, I know you realized your mistake and that's why you haven't responded since deleting this post, but I just want to point out one more aspect of your mistake.

    You referenced a New York State Poll from Sienna College that had Hillary up by 17 points in order to dismiss the findings from this national poll.

    Hillary Clinton won New York State by a 22.49% victory margin. So, they over-predicted Trump's performance, ROFL.

    Did that go the way you thought it would? No.
