    What a bullshit, clickbait headline. The actual story is at the end:

    Baris claimed that conservative polls showed that Trump was tied or had a “believable” edge against Harris.

    “And when you look at the track records of the pollsters in those two courts, right in those two camps, really, you know the ones who are showing the tighter race with Trump with an advantage, have better track records,” he insisted.

    He’s not saying her numbers are “unbelievable” as in, “holy shit that’s awesome!” He’s saying they’re literally unbelievable, as in, “I don’t believe that’s real.”

      Not quite a Karl Rove reaction, but similar. “These numbers can’t be right, it’s not the numbers we paid to get.”

      I was going to say, I’m sure they would find a 0.1% lead unbelievable.

    Problem: She’s not, she’s really really not. The EC race, you know, the only one that actually COUNTS, looks like it will be a squeaker.

      She is ahead in the polls by a narrow margin in enough states to carry the electoral college. It’s still way too close, and we can’t take anything for granted. But the best available data says that if the election were held today, the odds of Harris winning are at least better than a coin toss.

    Reading the article, it sounds more like Baris is making shit up to try and energize Trump voters.

      And to set up the steal as “legitimate.”

      Whatever plan they decide to go with to steal the election they’ll point to instances like this to “prove” it was stolen from them. :/

    “On the one side, you have the one school that is showing Harris with a lead but leading by unbelievable numbers, Peter,” he said. “That’s a fact, you know. […] And then really an edge that is not — is never going to materialize.” Baris claimed that conservative polls showed that Trump was tied or had a “believable” edge against Harris. “And when you look at the track records of the pollsters in those two courts, right in those two camps, really, you know the ones who are showing the tighter race with Trump with an advantage, have better track records,” he insisted.

    So when he says “that’s a fact”, it means he’s suggesting it’s a lie.

    “The entire world is against Donald Trump,” Baris told host Peter Navarro. “I mean, the idea that [Harris] is the underdog is ridiculous. Everyone from Fox News, the people who run Fox News to the people who run MSNBC want Harris to win, and even put their name to an endorsement for her.”

    I don’t trust anyone who says Fox News wants her to win. This person is either lying or delusional.

    MAGA pollster: “Harris is leading Trump by 50% in the end of September. Then in October, when Trump releases his October surprise, we can release a poll saying Trump is only down by 2%, showing he has the momentum. Then come November, we can release polls showing he was up 50% going into the vote and that proves [it was stolen from him/those numbers released by compromised Sec. of State are correct].”

    No she’s not. In fact, no one is voting for her. Absolutely no one.

    But if YOU vote for her, she just might win. You’re the only one whose vote you can control, so go vote.

    MAGA pollsters try to scare MAGA voters into voting.

      Or convince Harris voters that it’s a done deal. It’s not done until all the votes are in. No matter what polls say.
