The polls couldn't predict active collusions with Russia to make margins in key swing districts close. Surprises happen.

This has been one of the most stable races in history, and whatever chances Trump had likely didn't hinge upon him NOT catching COVID and being hospitalized a month before Election Day.

By Hillary Clinton and the DNC, you surely mean. At least if you are telling the truth, that is what you mean.

Whatever you wanna tell yourselves, Trumpers. I'd be worried too since he's been on/off his death bed with TWO COVID 19 experimental treatments.

Democrats and the left are going to be disappointed.

Lots of sky screaming and pledges to "leave this country!"

The further unhinging of the left will begin day after election 2020.

Grab your popcorn.

Deja vu, anyone?
Once again, polls are only as good as the day you were taken. So Clinton would have likely won if the election was held on October 16. When Nov. 1 arrived to the day before the election, polls in battleground states had become too close to call.

Your president is in the hospital from COVID 19 complications, so maybe you don't really know what disappointment actually means.

It appears that you may be one of these people who still has not accepted the outcome of the 2016 election yet.

Oops. I meant to type in YOUR BELOVED PRESIDENT, which clearly does not apply to me.

Hillary has always been unpopular, & disliked by many groups. I don't think Biden has the same heavy baggage, although I will admit he has some ( they & we all do).

A question for Trump supporters: If the polls are so wrong, why do you keep starting threads about them or mentioning them in many other threads? Surely if they are so wrong, they would mean nothing?

It's the same thing whenever the stock market goes up= TRUMP IS THE GREATEST PRESIDENT EVER, but when it craters= NOT TRUMP'S FAULT!

Confirmation bias has real life consequences.
