    A new poll predicts a landslide victory for President Donald Trump this November.

    Trump leads Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden by 3 percentage points in the latest Democracy Institute/Sunday Express poll 48%-45%, with pollsters predicting Trump will rout Biden in delegates, 309-229, as the president holds a lead over the former vice president in the swing states of Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

    "Although Biden remains in a competitive race with Donald Trump, and may well do so until election day, his support isn't growing," said Democracy Institute director Patrick Basham, who believes Biden has already hit his "high watermark."

    It seems that Biden has hit his high water mark already. He’s going to end up just like Michael Dukakis. I’m looking forward to a Trump landslide victory. Trumps convention was the perfect way to get a bounce.

    On key issues that are most important to voters they are all breaking Trumps way.

    Real Clear Politics averaging of ten other polls disagrees with your poll.
    But you don't believe in polls anyway.

    This pole accurately predicted the 2016 election as well as the Brexit vote.

    If you dont like Biden, there is nothing that will CAUSE you to like Biden other than Trump doing something stupid.

    On the other hand, the more people who get tired of these riots, the more people who will be energized to vote Republican or not vote at all.

    The riots are killing Dem poll numbers.

    They've unleashed the mob in order to destroy America then blame it on Trump but now Pandoras Box has been opened, and there's no getting them to stop.

    Meanwhile, Trump keeps piling on the death from covid numbers by holding rallies and ignoring social distancing.
    More and more people know someone who has died of Covid and Trump is treating it as a hoax.

    Four weeks ago, I knew a few people who had tested positive since March.
    Four weeks later, I know 4 who have been hospitalized with serious complications and one who has died.

    So the protests don’t create greater exposure to covid? Don’t see a lot of social distancing there!

    Not just that. There is no message from Biden on why I should vote for him. It's always Trump is bad. Ok so what are you going to do then? That is when you hear crickets. Biden doesn't have a real plan.

    President Trump commands the loyalty of the military, there is no need for this rigged election.

    congress cannot remove the Commander in Chief from office.

    Biden has to explicitly denounced the violence in Portland. Has trump? He was calling some of the rioters “patriots”.

    Of course not. Trump is dying and they can't stop the bleeding.

    An obvious OUTLIER.

    Besides, if they were going to make up numbers (out of whole cloth) just to skew the results for Trump, why don't they have him getting 400+ EV?

    If they are just making up numbers, they might as well dream Really BIG.

    The CDC had something to say about china virus death numbers today. Only a small portion of those numbers are valid and attributed to virus deaths only. You may find that VERY disappointing.

    Are you referring to the FALSE Claims (from a QAnon supporter) that TRUMP retweeted and Twitter eventually removed?

    How to know trump is a failed leader, he is running on a platform that acts like he is not currently the President — besides when he is using it as a prop.

    First: the military will not intervene. You are implying that the military has a role to play in elections. That’s the kind of thing that happens in banana republics.

    Second: Trump is the one trying to rig the election by suppressing the vote, preventing vote by mail and by questioning the validity of the results (but only if he loses).

    Third: Congress CAN remove the president.

    Is there a difference between the immune systems of government officials and average people? Are both not equally capable of illness and spread and are both choices not to social distance?

    Well that post didn't age well. It's what happens when you don't fact check to see if it's a fake or not.
