“He’s stronger than Biden.” “He’s weaker than his Republican opponents (none of whom could beat Biden).” “He’s strong.” “He’s weak.”
FFS, make up your mind. This is why these polls don’t fucking mean shit.
Fascism requires that you be strong enough to defend against your foes, while the foes have the power to keep you down.
That’s true, but this isn’t Fascism. This is pollsters coming to wildly different conclusions, hence my frustration at both the disparate polls and polling this far out from the election.
Plus, Trump gets a defacto 30% of the GOP vote, because that’s how many of them are his cultists. There is no fucking way he’s weaker than his Republican challengers.
GOP pollster. Read the article. The guy is creating propaganda.
Who’s promoting fascism here?? The … news agencies on behalf of Democrats? Just because different dumb news polls turn up different doesn’t magically equal the simultaneously strong/weak fascism trope. Stop using “fascism” as the response to everything. It doesn’t even make sense here.
In between jan 6th and project 2025, you are claiming the GQP isn’t fascist?
I think they’re saying that the previous person, who quoted the enemy is both strong and weak thing about media reporting on Trump’s polling, was not pointing it at the correct people, because a dispirate group of journalists/pollsters are portraying Trump as both strong and weak. Confused articles disagreeing with each other on the rocking boat that is polls a full year out does not a fascism make, is the point.
The article makes it pretty clear that the pollster himself is disagreeing with himself:
Luntz, who has provided polling and strategy for a number of high-profile Republicans over the years, suggested during a Tuesday interview on CNBC’s Squawk Box that Trump’s position in the general election polls was due to Biden being even weaker, arguing that candidates polling far behind Trump in GOP primary polls would do better against Biden.
GOP pollster. Read the article. It’s propaganda. (Not the article itself, but the pollster is generating propaganda.)
Thank you!
Trump being weak is an opinion of one man.
just fucking vote plz
Fuck Trump and all, but these polls are asinine click bait
Can we trust these polls? Feels like 2016 all over again
Lesson from today: If Trump is on the ballot next year, the GOP is looking at a wipeout of epic proportions up and down the ballot. Anyone remotely associated with him in non-blood-red states/districts (and even some red ones) will be fortunate to eek out a win. Republicans can’t win without moderates & independents, and his name is mud with them. Hatred for Trump nationally is much stronger than even peoples’ own economic self interest. Millions will vote against him and the candidates he endorses, even to their own detriment. Today is a harbinger of things to come if Republicans stay on this path.
Nixon fed the base beer. Reagan made it grain alcohol punch, and Bush Jr. broke out the moonshine. Trump is meth. His people will vote for him no matter what.
😂 I’m gonna copy pasta that 😁
Feel free. I’ve been repeating it since 2016…

I’d go one step further, and include Wilson giving them bread. He segregated the federal government, refounded the KKK, and erected a bunch of statues of traitors that specifically asked not to have statues of them ever made. Not to mention a shitton of other stuff.
Not sure why this is even being shared. The story is more that this guy who has been wrong in the past is disagreeing with the current polling.
Thoughts and prayers 🙏 🌈
I’ll take it lmao
I keep hearing about these young voters who aren’t backing Biden in articles I’ve read. Can anyone share some perspective on what might be the reasoning here?
Pollsters have no fucking idea whats going on and just send out regular feelers to a tiny fraction of americans to see how they would vote at that given time, often with loaded questions to help sway the numbers in which ever way they want the result to land.
Also younger voters have been shown to rarely respond to polls. Those that do are probably the strongest MAGA supporters that for some reason wear that as a badge of honer. So my assumption is these polls are deeply biased by who is actually responding.
Im 23, I dont have a land line, I don’t answer unknown numbers, and I don’t do online polls.
I am basically invisible from a polling perspective. I cant imagine its much different for others.
Edit: put 25 for some fucking reason im actually 23. I dont know why I put that wrong.
I have a landline and I picked up the phone last week for a poll and promptly hung up so polls to me are polling the weird Americans that would take phone surveys during dinner time
I’m not that young but I legitimately stopped responding to text polls because I’m not 100% sure a conservative organization wouldn’t text out “poll questions” to start building a list of liberal citizens to fuck with.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Former President Donald Trump is the “weakest” major Republican candidate running in the 2024 presidential election, according to GOP pollster Frank Luntz.
The ex-president is also leading or even with President Joe Biden in most polls, despite much of his attention recently being focused on the avalanche of legal issues that he is facing, including 91 felony criminal counts and multiple civil lawsuits.
“I don’t understand for the life of me why [Senate Majority Leader] Chuck Schumer and why [House Minority Leader] Hakeem Jeffries do not go to the White House and say, 'Sir, you’ve been a great president, you’ve done a good job for us, but it’s time to move on,” Luntz said.
Luntz incorrectly predicted that Republicans would sweep last year’s midterm elections by historic margins, claiming that they would achieve “between 233-240 House seats” and win back the Senate.
In reality, Republicans performed far worse than most political observers predicted, winning back the House by a smaller-than-expected margin and remaining in the minority in the Senate while Democrats picked up a seat.
Many observers, including some Republicans, did attribute the Republican 2022 midterm failure to Trump’s involvement, especially since high-profile Trump-backed GOP candidates including Mehmet Oz and Herschel Walker lost races that tilted control of the Senate.
