He’s had yet another horrible week. The old tricks aren’t working. Kamala Harris does not fear him. And it’s showing in the numbers.

    Yea while Kamala is ahead in the polls , a frighteningly large amount of people still support 45

      Even then, the error % on polls is high enough that Trump could be ahead instead.

      Polls post their calculated error %. If they could be off by like 5% in either direction, then that’s what they say. And if the poll shows Trump losing by 2%, with a 5% error, that means Trump could win by 3%.

      Every single reputable poll that has been published shows a Trump victory within the margin of error.

        I don’t know a single person that has been polled. They are all guesswork.

          No, they just don’t have to poll massive groups, surprisingly small groups work well enough for polling.

              Almost every poll had him winning within the margin of error, 2016 was never certain, just like this election isn’t.

              Polls are all about probability. They can’t predict the future. So, even though Hillary was likely to win, there was still a chance that Trump could win. Does this mean that polls are useless? No, because knowing the popularity of your candidate relative to the other candidates is important information.

                I doubt too many polls could have predicted the Comey/GOP/FBI election interference, for example.
