He needs to avoid them because it just gives Americans an opportunity to remind how much they don't like him.

If he stayed in hospital for the duration of the campaign would probably give him his best chance of winning.
lmao. trump will be “hiding in the basement” like he accused Biden of doing.

We all know what happened with that one.
Thanks for reminding us of 2016 again. It rarely happens on these forums

No she was up about 5. Why do Trumpers fine the need to make things up? They were off by 3 points. Biden is probably up by 8. If they are off by 3 that is 5. That is a problem for Trump. As is the fact that he is in the hospital with the virus he said would go away by Easter. Anything could happen but if someone put a gun to my head and said choose will win. My choice is not Trump. I am not going to chose a candidate in the hospital with a potentially fatal disease who is way behind in the polls.

Conducted after the final presidential debate, the poll finds the Democratic nominee leads Trump among likely voters 51% to 37%, a significant lead over the Republican candidate.

Biden is now up by 100%! EVERY American willbe voting for Sleepy Joe! I might as well just stay home.

The media propaganda is in high gear right now....its hit the spin cycle.

They know Dem enthusiasm is at an all time low, so they must poke the Dems to vote anyway they can. They are trying to convince Dems that they actually have a chance Nov 3rd.

The DNC sees that blacks and latino's are fleeing for the Dem exits, and that means it over for Joe.

If Trump gets 20% of blacks, and 40% of latino's, its 4 more years, and the media all know it.

The BLM rioting ploy backfired!

That is not what you said. Don't move that goal post. You said this (note the word "polls" not one poll)

Polls ranged from +2 for Trump to +14 for Clinton three weeks before the election. Average of about +5. Right now Biden is +8.

First it was "trumpers" making up lies. When that's proven false, now it's a matter of plurality.

Try speaking with clarity not ambiguity.


Trumpers make up lies and stating the polls three weeks out were plus 14 is not true. The polls said she was plus 5. Go ahead and spin it all you want.

James Comey helped but she was coming down anyway because Trump remained controversy free since the Hollywood access tape.

But I suspect he'll want to participate in the next 2 debates behaving the same way again reconsolidating Biden's lead.
I guess we all think in different ways: it seems there are polls all over the place, but right now hardly seems the time to be discussing polls; we should just mellow out and wait to see how the next week develops for our President and his health.
