Donald Trump supporters are just making up data now to make him look good.
Results from a “shock” poll shared by one of Donald Trump’s surrogates started trending on X Monday, telling 1.4 million people that the Republican presidential nominee was gaining ground on Vice President Kamala Harris in New Mexico.
But none of it appears to be real.
MAGA ally Richard Grennell, who served as the acting director of national intelligence during Trump’s administration, posted the sourceless numbers to his X account, claiming that Harris only had a three-point lead on the former president in the battleground state. But that alleged narrow lead made light of other recent surveys, including one published in the Albuquerque Journal on Monday, which showed Harris with a nine-point lead, three times more than Grennell suggested.
“Trump surrogates are literally fabricating polls at this point to make their supporters think a victory is inevitable,” wrote Democratic strategist and pollster Matt McDermott in response to Grennell’s post. “No poll shows this in New Mexico.”
I disagree. A landslide would be much harder to fight/stop.
You do understand who MAGA is right? It’s the mentally ill mixed with the racist. They don’t care.
Let’s create a landslide anyway. For funsies.
Right. A close relative and I were talking to an acquaintance, let’s say (not a friend) who is totally in the tank for donnie - a magabrain if ever there was one. This woman simply could not grasp that most of the country thinks donnie is weird, delusional, that he’s dangerous, not normal, and very unlikable.
She’s like…“but over half the country likes him?!” And I don’t even know if she actually believes this bullshit, or if she’s just playing mock outrage at someone giving her some truth about her fat golden boy.
Where to even start with this shit? Half? I asked her where she gets half? And she says more than half the country voted for him but he only lost the electoral college, it was stolen, etc…good grief. They are just stuck in a total fact-free bubble. I didn’t even want to continue the conversation at that point. I’m sure all these magaferbrainz think they “win” arguments, but the truth is that most adults just don’t have the patience to walk them through all the ways they are wrong and how fallacious their arguments are: not all Americans qualified to vote, donnie lost the popular vote by a fucking LOT, etc…
True, but also true: overturning 5 swing states results will be much harder for them.
It’s imperative to make it a landslide.
Also for down ballot races. The house and senate are still critical to take.
