Yes, good for you but each one of our hundreds of millions of citizens all make a decision and they don't all agree

Too simplistic an answer minimus. Unfortunately Trump's personality has turned off a lot of people and now they don't trust him. It's just a way of life these days. Should a tweet cause you to lose faith in our government? Probably not, but everyone gets to make their own choices. Freedom baby!!

a month ago it might have been questionable.

not now.

after bader’s death and biden’s inability, this shouldn’t be close.

Here's a couple articles I thought were interesting:

One last look: 2016 polls actually got a lot right - The Hill 1/19/17

It Wasn't the Polls That Missed, It Was the Pundits - Realclearpolitics 11/12/16

Probability of winning isn't a poll - it's an opinion based on information. The information can be accurate and opinion can be waaaay off.

The actual polls, on average, weren't that far off from correct. Although I'm sure there were some poorly conducted polls that were outliers on either side.

What's good is that a simple checking of polling averages in the swingstates and nationally in 2016 along with the actual vote counts clears this up pretty quickly

Catch-22

If the vaccine cooked out now or recommendations change - tons of people will say Trump/GOO are lying and disbelieve

If vaccine or recommendations come out after election or inauguration - tons of people will say Democrats/MSM are lying and disbelieve.

The polls show biden much farther ahead than clinton ever was in several swingstates. I just saw a Fox news poll that showed this today and a Rasmussen poll from like yesterday or so that showed this too.

I think that Trump is in very real trouble and that moderates and undecided (if there are any) aren't breaking his way.

The 2016 polls were actually pretty accurate by my recollection. Nationally they showed clinton ahead and they turned out right. State wise they showed the race within the margin of error and again they were right.
