President Donald Trump wont accept the fact that Democratic candidate and former Vice President Joe Biden is beating him in the polls.
I dont believe the polls, Trump said during an interview with Reuters on Wednesday. I believe the people of this country are smart. And I dont think that they will put a man in whos incompetent.
Additionally, Trump claimed that the upcoming election would not be a referendum on his response to the COVID-19 outbreak, which has come under heavy criticism as his administration struggles to help states combat medical supply shortages and other crises.
I think its a referendum on a lot of things, he told Reuters. I think its going to be a referendum on all the things weve done and certainly this will be a part of it, but weve done a great job.

(22,166 posts)He's an idiot, plain and simple, and needs to have his ass kicked out of office (pardon the language, pls.).
Go ahead and let him believe his fantasies. I can't wait until after the Nov. 3, 2020 elections and see his face, when he loses in a landslide. What I would give to be a fly on the walls of the WH that day, but I wouldn't be able to handle it very long, being that he's so repulsive and just plain creepy.

(4,533 posts)The average of final polls projected Hillary would win by 3. She won by 2.
Critical State polls were off by 6 however. The median error on state polls is 6. In 2018 Siena College coordinating with the NYT new Nate, Nate Cohn replacing their old Nate, Nate Silver, was onlyoff by 3 on average. They seem to have a superior method using proprietary voter registration data from a company called Catalyst.
Its early. Opinions on Trump seem locked in but the virus may unlock some votes. If Trump kills a kid or a spouse maybe one in a hundred Trump voters might unlock.
