    LOL, 538 had Hillary at a 71% chance of winning, Tralfalgar was one of the few predicting a Trump win in 2016, Rasmussen was closer than most last time.

    Does Tralfalgar get to rate 538?

    So Trafalgar knows more than the 25 other pollsters who say Biden will win.

    You can sleep easy.

    Should I believe pollsters, or should I believe my own eyes?

    One day to go to find out.

    You should only trust your own eyes.

    That's the beauty of Trumpism, anyone can claim to know more than any specialist in any discipline.

    Trump knows more about ISIS than generals, you know more about polls than polling companies.

    That's wonderful.

    I might change to order of our torments.

    But it’s is obvious to anyone with any sense that the last nine months are going to be exactly what the next two years will be like with Trump.

    Trump’s strategy is always the same.

    Do nothing.

    Attack anyone who tries to tell him to do something.

    Promote quack cures and magic bullets.

    Just look at Trump's rallies vs Biden's to tell you what's going to happen tomorrow.

    They didn't learn ****. They are wrong again and they are sweating it. They might as well close shop.

    I totally agree. I think PA is definitely Trump's. There are a lot of cross voters in PA. Biden pissed all over the blue collar energy workers in PA just like Hitlery did.

    The infections have gone up, but where have the deaths per million gone? Notice the left won't talk about that.

    Shutting down energy jobs and taking their guns away is rather stupid.

    Yup, Sweden who never had shutdowns also has a lot of cases but very few deaths. I think Trump getting the virus has shown it is overblown, an overweight 70-something guy has only a week of half speed from his virus case, and yesterday campaigned in five states. Of course had Biden gotten it it would have had a different outcome given his weak condition.

    Trump is going by the internal polling... That is why he is saying that he is going to win.

    I recall the early morning rally in Grand Rapids back in 2016.

    Mike Pence stated that the internal polling looked like Michigan was going to put Trump over the top.

    This was the same day that Hillary was supposed to have a 6 point lead in Michigan according to the media.
    And the same time frame where Bill Clinton understood that Michigan had been taken for granted.
