The reason elections with Trump in it are hard to poll is because there is a not negligible number of voters who are so ashamed of supporting him they won't share it with other people.
Imagine that man or woman.

(334 posts)In fact, when asked, one of them told me, "I voted for who I thought was best for our country."
They never say, "I voted for Trump." Fucking cowards.
In this way, I actually admire the wingnuts who own their nuttery. At least they have the balls to stand up and show to the world their bias.
