    More french ahead. ABC agreed to say that they regret the statement- not that it was wrong or in error.

    Rich Baris said Trump would win in 2020… Trump should sue him…

    Express and Lie are two different things. Disney did not express an opinion.

    Rather than discouraging Trump's supporters from voting the Seltzer poll showing Harris ahead by 3% probably had the reverse effect, encouraging them to vote rather than stay home. Rather than suppressing the votes of Trump's supporters the poll most likely motivated them to vote.

    Baris said Trump was ahead in the polls in 2020. He also said it was going to be a "quasi election." The election was rigged with mail-in ballots. Grow up, you know that's what happened

    Lol... I suppose the "option" of forcing them to tell the truth is off the table? ;)

    I agree which is why I responded to the question asking if either side is damaged when a pollster gets it wrong. Glad we’re on the same page ;)

    The Ann Selzer poll was a joke. 2 days before her fake poll dropped she was telling Democrats she was going to drop a bomb on the Trump campaign. Obvious election interference

    Votes for a criminal who spent four years lying about fake election fraud....then switched to lying about eating dogs.

    Pretends to care about "the truth."





    ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!?

    RFK sued to stay on the ballot in swing states and get off the ballot in other states. Y'all want to talk about actual election interference?

    The Ann Selzer poll was fake and just an attempt to help the Kamala. campaign

    Utterly delusional. If this alleged evidence existed, it would have been presented in courts (and yes, courts run by Trump appointees…)

    You lost in 2020. Get over it. You won in 2024. Im not going to engage in election delusions.

    The poll didn’t weigh by education or demographics. This is literally what she does every year. Last year, she was dead on and called a not-close race in Iowa for Trump. She even stated that she may be in error this year, based on uneducated people breaking heavy for Trump.

    Read the crosstabs and stop assuming....

    Interesting quote on Trump from a (likely) British person, who calls on July 4th to be a national day of mourning in America.

    Non-Americans Are Sharing Exactly What's Wrong With American Politics, And It's Embarrassing That They Understand More Than Republicans

    So it was an attempt to help Harris even though logically it's most likely impact was motivating Trump voters to get out and vote? Got it.

    Rich Baris polls are fake and attempted to help the Trump campaign in 2020…

    (I’m hoping at some point you realize how dumb it is and everything t you say can be applied to the bad and bias polling service on the Republican side… let the “optimistic” rating begin)

    The European countries are being overrun as we speak... they have no room to talk because they are way ahead of us on their demise.

    Who cares what is happening in Canada and in Europe? I don't care, and I'll bet real money that many Americans don't care what the socialists abroad think about America.

    The Euros make fun of religion in our politics? Lol... but pretty soon they will all be forced to pray to Allah in their politics (in all of their countries, pick one) because they forfeited their own Christian Religion. Lol... way to go Euros... and Canada is just our northernmost state... especially when they get rid of their dictator, Fidel Jr.

    No thank you. Liberals here, lol... We do NOT want to take advice from Canada and any European country. That is a nonstarter for me. We have our Constitution, and it works just fine when we don't let crooked people take control of our country... people like Obama/Biden took over.
