"SNIP......

“President Trump’s advisers presented him with the results of internal polling last week that showed him falling behind former vice president Joe Biden in key swing states in the presidential race, part of an effort by aides to curtail Trump’s freewheeling daily briefings on the coronavirus pandemic,” the Washington Post reports.

“The two polls given to Trump — one from the Republican National Committee and another from the Trump campaign — both showed Trump trailing Biden in swing states.”

fact that this lunatic, this killer, this racist, this rapist, this liar, this thief could get more than 25% in any poll means we are a badly broken society and I dont see how we survive in anything remotely resembling what we are supposed to be.

That many broken, mean, vicious and disgusting people make functionality impossible.

I keep hoping that Trump gets so angry he has a severe stroke or heart attack, but I’m fine with the idea that he gets so angry he just walks out and never comes back. He is a despicable human being and a miserable excuse for a sentient being. May he rot in hell for all the misery he has engineered.

'Trump's internal polling show him HEADED TO PRISON'..

because that will be the result of him losing the election, unless he heads for a non extradition country.

And THATS why hes freaking the fuck out.

GOOD.

21. At the same point in 2016, Hillary Clinton led by more.
Wed Apr 29, 2020, 08:15 PM

If the presidential election were held today, polls in crucial swing states like Florida, Michigan and Pennsylvania suggest that Joe Biden would be in position for a narrow victory.

The disquieting news for Democrats is that at the same point in 2016, Hillary Clinton was in a better position.

Some Americans have lost faith in President Donald Trump’s handling of the coronavirus crisis, but the country’s deeply entrenched partisan divide has prevented the president from losing more than a few percentage points on his overall approval rating.

Besides, the Electoral College has a meaningful Republican tilt and those who turn out to vote tend to be slightly more conservative than the general population. Add to that Republicans’ efforts to limit access to voting among predominantly Democratic populations, and Trump might well become the first president in history to win two full terms without once winning a plurality of the popular vote.

State polls proved problematic during the 2016 presidential race — that much is well known. But with no guarantee that a repeat will not occur this year, it bears noting that Clinton was considerably further ahead of Trump in many swing state polls in spring 2016 than Biden is now.

If this is true Biden needs to do better and we need to get out and convince new voters to vote blue

$1200 is peanuts but the large publicly traded companies are getting millions when they have enough cash to sustain them is evil. Plus the fact mf45 is skimming money to give to his donors is appalling. The residents of those repuke states could finally realize repukes don’t have their best interests. MF45 will be the guy who finally destroys the repuke party.

Thank GOD!
