Trump campaign demands CNN apologize for poll that shows Biden leading - Belsnickel - 06-11-2020 This is one of the stupidest things I have seen a campaign do. https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/10/politics/trump-campaign-cnn-poll/index.html Quote:Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump's campaign is demanding CNN retract and apologize for a recent poll that showed him well behind presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden. More at the link, but I think that's enough to get a sense for the idiocy. RE: Trump campaign demands CNN apologize for poll that shows Biden leading - Nately120 - 06-11-2020 I know I predicted this 4 years ago and i was wrong, but can a Trump News Network be far behind? The guy has a base of people who believe everything from him and nothing from anyone else. Nothing outside of a poll forecasting the 2020 election being a win for Trump with a magnitude of Reagan over Mondale is going to get his seal of truth.

Well if the MSM is always conspiring to create "fake news" about Trump, then this could very well be a Faux poll designed to suppress the Trump vote. People will come out in droves to support a law and order president, now that "the left" wants to ban police.

Its not stupid at all. The stupidity is doing these kind of polls in the first place. If Biden has such a commanding lead. Then Dems can stay home on voting day and be confident of victory... ask Hillary how that worked out for her. This is like Chad/CNN sending Pepto/poll to the opposing DBs/Trump and his supporters. They will bring their "A" game against you and knock you on your ass on Vote day. And then when CA goes to the polls, it won't really matter cause its already game over. After that,, there will be endless bitching about majoritynvs electoral votes for 3 years then forgotten again when its vote time. For giggles, I went to CNN politics.. only 2 of all of their articles didn't mention Trump. Only 1 for Biden (that didn't involve Trump as well), and that was the top 10 women he should pick as a running mate. The other article was about the GOP, but didn't mention Trump. Quite amusing really.

Quite amusing really. I don't get it. What is "amusing" about any of that? Trump is by far the biggest political figure in the country? Why shouldn't he be the subject of most of the political news? What news source is not talking about Trump right now?

RE: Trump campaign demands CNN apologize for poll that shows Biden leading - HarleyDog - 06-11-2020 What your not seeing is voters who are republican avoid CNN like the plague. Therefore, not taking part in their poll. Watching CNN is equal to watching a group of fortune tellers do SNL skits. Always wrong and stupid. Although, the old SNL was golden. RE: Trump campaign demands CNN apologize for poll that shows Biden leading - bfine32 - 06-11-2020 I demand anyone who watches FNC or CNN for their "news" immediately apologize.

The poll isn't based on who watches CNN. That's not how this works. At all. RE: Trump campaign demands CNN apologize for poll that shows Biden leading - Nately120 - 06-11-2020 So are the results in for the poll Trump paid someone to do?

Plus you'd think if they polled 1,300 CNN watchers Biden would be leading by an absurd amount. Here is 270 to win...I don't know where they stand or how they got their numbers or if they're some sort of liberal asswipe like CNN, but here you go.... https://www.270towin.com/2020-polls-biden-trump/ Here is a long list...... https://www.270towin.com/2020-polls-biden-trump/national/ RE: Trump campaign demands CNN apologize for poll that shows Biden leading - bfine32 - 06-11-2020 (06-11-2020, 07:01 PM)HarleyDog Wrote: What your not seeing is voters who are republican avoid CNN like the plague.

I think it's more about how they conduct the poll. Seems they call you and many conservatives say "leave me alone, I'm working", while many leftist say "Of course I'll talk to you about how I don't like Trump". We see the same dynamic here. Of course none of that excuses Trump's demand they apologize for it. But he is what he is.

Trump behind in polls - That's because Trump's supporters are too busy working to make their support known. Trump is ahead in polls - TRUMP RULES!!!!!!! It just reminds me of the whole inauguration crowd thing. Obama had a bigger crowd so neo-cons started arguing that was because only jobless losers have the time to go to such things and then Trump tweeted out that he had the BIGGEST inauguration crowd ever. People have to get their stories straight. Who am I kidding, no they don't.

I've never touted a poll regardless of who it indicates is ahead. But let's try an experiment for the sake of the board: I'll give you my cell number and Matt can give you his. Call us both up and ask "Do you have time to take a poll about the 2020 election". Then you can post the results. My bet is Biden wins 1-0. My cell is 1-800-BIG DADI RE: Trump campaign demands CNN apologize for poll that shows Biden leading - Belsnickel - 06-11-2020 (06-11-2020, 08:45 PM)Nately120 Wrote: So are the results in for the poll Trump paid someone to do? 270 to win is a good one.

So polls are meaningless because you can come up with an example that has a sample size of 2 with 1 participant refusing to answer? Well, can't argue with that. Hey, call me and then you can tell CNN that Jesse Ventura is going to win in 2020!

So I deleted the whole paragraph I typed in response to this. So, I will just say history may repeat itself. If I remember correctly, Trump was behind in the polls during the last election and the left was celebrating a crushing victory early. Then, around the hours of 330 to 6pm, the tide started changing quickly. Not sure what caused it, could be Russian interference, or a lot of voters wearing working boots drove to the voting booth. Who knows? I think it was Russian interference. We should focus on that and do an investigation.

Honestly, this has me wondering if we can find polls where Romney, McCain, Kerry, Dukakis, Bob Dole and so on (other than Thomas Dewey) were expected to win and didn't. I mean, Hillary did get more votes than Trump, so it's not like that part was off. (06-11-2020, 09:25 PM)bfine32 Wrote: I will call you though. Is your number still 1-800-ITS-TINY?
