Imagine watching a sports game in which one of the teams, feeling it will lose to a stronger rival team, claims that if it loses the game it would be because of biased referees. This is before even playing the goddam game.
This is what sore loser and convicted criminal tax cheater Donald Trump is doing on the day before election day, now that crunchtime polls show him losing big time. In Iowa, reputed pollster Ann Selzer, who has predicted virtually all winners in Iowa in previous races, including presidential races, gubernatorial races, senate races etc., shows Trump trailing Harris in Iowa by 3 points, 47 percent to Harris vs. 44 percent to the convicted felon.
The demented criminal is enraged at the news and is flailing about like a headless chicken, accusing the pollster of being a "Trump hater" and already claiming that fraud would be to blame for his sore painful loss. How can sane Americans not see through the criminality of such a statement: Trump knows he's losing and he is already planning to disrupt the process like he did in the 2020 elections. Has anyone asked him why would he not claim fraud if he does win? It's such an idiotic posture.
Selzer brushed off her naysayers and Trump specifically, telling Newsweek, “These are the kinds of comments seen for virtually any poll, including mine. The Des Moines Register includes a methodology statement with each story they publish. It’s the same methodology used to show Trump winning Iowa in the final polls in 2016 and 2020. It would not be in my best interest, or that of my clients—The Des Moines Register and Mediacom—to conjure fake numbers.”
In 2016, Trump won Iowa by 9 points, and then by 8 points in the 2020 election. Yet, despite the former president’s positive track record of winning the state, the Republican candidate has plummeted in election betting odds since the shock poll numbers.
If Harris were to turn Iowa blue, she would be the first Democratic nominee to do so since 2012.
