Trump Mocked for Tweet Boasting of 'VERY GOOD Internal Polling Numbers' as Polls Continue to Show Him Losing to Biden

Trump Mocked for Tweet Boasting of 'VERY GOOD Internal Polling Numbers' as Polls Continue to Show Him Losing to Biden

Since the acceleration of the highly contagious virus throughout the United States and his response to nationwide protests against police brutality, both national and swing state polls gauging outcomes of the 2020 election haven't been kind to President Donald Trump.

One CNN poll recently showed him trailing Democratic nominee Joe Biden by 14 points. A Fox News poll showed Biden narrowly beating Trump in reliably red states like Texas and Georgia. A poll from Public Policy Polling released today also forecast trouble for Trump in Georgia this November, with Biden reaching a four point lead. The President's favorite poll, openly conservative Rasmussen, found Trump's disapproval rating at 55 percent. His average popularity from FiveThirtyEight hovers around the same.


Trump's polling has gotten so bad that a recent report from Fox Business correspondent Charlie Gasparino cited anonymous GOP operatives floating the possibility of Trump dropping out if the poll numbers don't improve.

The Trump campaign strongly dismissed Gasparino's report, and—according to a new tweet—the President isn't concerned with the numerous polls showing that his second term may not be guaranteed.

Trump insists that his campaign's internal voting paints an entirely different picture.

It may not come as a surprise that other information disputes this. A CNBC report released on Monday found that Trump's campaign took $16 million out of its massive war chest to spend on ads in battleground states. An ABC News piece reported that internal Trump campaign polling found the same results earlier this month.

The move came after internal polls—which have yet to be made public—showed Trump losing in the swing state of Michigan and treading water in typically red states like Georgia and North Carolina.

Trump dismissed the polls, repeating the questionable talking point that polls were widely off in 2016. In reality, a RealClearPolitics average of polling in the 2016 election showed Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton winning by 3.2 percentage points. She won the popular vote by 2.1 points—the largest winning margin of any electoral college loser—but lost the electoral vote.

People ridiculed Trump's confidence that he'd win a second term.



People mocked Trump, joking that the internal polls weren't from the campaign, but from Trump's own mind.







Though polls look good for Democrats now, they'll need a robust turnout in November to have a hope of unseating Donald Trump.

Trump's Commencement Speech Claim That The U.S. Is 'Hot' Right Now Turns Into Hilariously Brutal Self-Own

President Donald Trump's attempt to smear the Biden administration turned into a self-own while he spoke at the commencement ceremony for the U.S. Coast Guard Academy this week.

Trump spoke as several hundred protesters gathered outside Coast Guard Academy campus in New London, Connecticut. During the nearly hour-long address to cadets and their families, he alternated between praising the graduating class of 2026 and revisiting familiar themes about what he described as the country’s recovery after a period of decline.

ChatGPT Response Appears To Make It Into School Textbook—And We're Doomed

Students are being actively discouraged from using ChatGPT and other AI-generation tools, as they are expected to learn their educational concepts and be able to put them into practice. They are also not supposed to use these tools while writing papers or during at-home tests.

Given how expensive grade school and college textbooks are, it is reasonable that educational writers and content professionals should be held to the same standards. Wouldn't it make sense for them to use the knowledge of their field, rather than what's been fed into ChatGPT, to make a textbook a worthwhile purchase for students?
