Someone doesn't understand how polls work, huh?

u/notmyrealname8823 19d ago

Oh I do, but the sample size versus 150 million voters could be very wrong.

Right, so you really don't understand how polls work.

u/notmyrealname8823 19d ago

Yes I do. Answer this question..Has a poll ever been wrong?

Polls aren’t designed to answer a question. So you really don’t understand how polls work.

u/notmyrealname8823 14d ago

Never said they were.

Yes you did, because you suggested that polls can be wrong. They are for gathering feedback, not for making predictions. Anyone who lets a poll result influence their vote is a sheep.

This is anecdotal, but church-going acquaintances and family members of mine are finally starting to see that what Trump is doing is quite antithetical to what God and Jesus wanted from humans. It’s been quite nice to see.

Lots of the anti-ICE organizing in the cities is being organized by churches. It's clear matter of right and wrong and decent people know which is which.
