Donald Trump's poll denialism

I certainly wouldn't want to be in Melania's shoes when he loses.   

Donald Trump's poll denialism

Donald Trump has a new target: "Crooked polls."

With Hillary Clinton extending her lead nationwide and in key battleground states, Trump is toying with what might be called "poll denialism," giving his supporters license to dismiss the discouraging data.

"Even the polls are crooked," he said at a Monday night rally, expressing disbelief that he is losing to Clinton in Pennsylvania. "Look, we're in a rigged system."

Trump has only topped Clinton in one scientifically conducted poll in Pennsylvania since it became clear he would be the GOP's nominee back in April, while Clinton has been in the lead in 18 of them. In the most recent polls, Clinton holds a double-digit lead there.

On Tuesday when Bill O'Reilly told him that "you're behind with women," Trump responded, "I'm not sure I believe it. I'm not sure I believe it."

Nearly every national poll finds Clinton well ahead among women, and she holds a 17-point lead among women in the most recent national polling on the race from NBC and the Wall Street Journal.

At a rally Tuesday night, Trump told fans, "The polls are pretty even in Florida. Don't let me down!" ............

Polls:  Great when you're winning, they suck when you're losing.

This is really delicious.  Trump is going to be twisting in the wind for the next 23 days.

Donny's stump speeches are nothing but bitching about how everyone is out to get him. Polls, Ryan, Conservatives, some has been beauty queen. He is nothing but an embarrassing bucket of fail and insecurity.

Bad news, Donny-boy: it's worse than it looks.

I think the real denial, though, is with the Trumpettes who put this bloviating asshat where he is today. They sunk the GOP this year - make no mistake. They killed conservatism in 2016.

Trump is a jihadist in Egypt now?

He's espouses political violence and can't control himself around women... and is in denial.

HORSEHILLARY!

Trump is just a result of the damage done by the Bush Crime Family,John McLunatic,Romney,and the other alleged Republicans in leadership positions. The last two times the Republican candidate for President  was a conservative,he won both times. His name  was Ronald Reagan.

But but but Saint Rush said to ignore the polls.

And Rush's word is gospel.

I haven't listened to a segment of his show in a couple of days.  I was wondering how he was going to spin this.

Uh... so why didn't we put an actual conservative up this year? Cruz was the obvious choice, but I would have taken Walker even even some of the other guys.

Hell - at this point - I would have taken Fiorina. At least you can tell that she cared enough to really, really study the issues and get her thoughts straight.

Rush will do for Trump what he has to elect every Dem President candidate since 2009.

What's this "WE" stuff,white man? The alleged Republican Party has NEVER been a conservative party. They didn't even back Barry Goldwater,and Reagan was a fluke that slipped past them and their Dim brothers.

Too many people confuse Bible-Thumpers with conservatism. It just ain't so unless you are talking about conservative socialism. The Protestant Bible-Thumpers gravitated towards the alleged Republican Party after being stabbed in the back by a larger pack of socialist loons,the communists. The communist Bible-Thumpers (the Catholics) remained with the Dim Party BECAUSE Catholicism is more aligned with fascist communism than socialism.  Politically speaking,there is nothing conservative about that voting block.

>>Hell - at this point - I would have taken Fiorina. At least you can tell that she cared enough to really, really study the issues and get her thoughts straight.<<

I am not sure she was conservative. Not really sure she wasn't,though. She didn't stick around long enough for me to figure out what she was. She did seem less offensive than the Usual Suspects,though,and her running as the alleged Republican candidate would have taken some wind out of Bubbette!'s "It's time for a Why-men president" screech.

Seeing as how she didn't appear to be "eat your dirty underwear crazy",that put her one YUGE step above Donald Little Hands. The whole insane thing has always thrown me off about Trump even thought I think we might all end up owing him a debt of gratitude for putting the final nail in the alleged Republican coffin.

I think I could have been semi-happy with Cruz,but he was the only one.

JEB,being a member of the Bush Crime Family was and is totally unacceptable. I would vote for Hillary before I would vote for that scumbag SOB.

Much like his supporters, IMO.
