    Rasmussen polls are generally rated low for accuracy. All I read is that the Republican media is trying to frighten Trump into shaping up and getting more disciplined.

    Won’t work. Trump is already frightened (of losing & going to prison) but has no self-control.

  2. In West Michigan, it feels like a lot of people are for the Harris-Walz ticket BUT they fear public ridicule because this is deep, deep Trump Country. Specifically with the age 40 and under demographic. Like, the parents and grandparents are as devout Conservatives as they are devout Christians. But, the seeds of change are sown and is slowly sprouting. The Gen-Z here hold progressive viewpoints. But, the oldguard is still Conservative.

    I am a little nervous that protest this week at the DNC could tamp down Harris’ potential bump. If things go off without a hitch, I heard a pollster said 2-3 points is expected. However, if the focus is on protest the bump could be a lot lower.

    Rasmussen has had up to an 8-10 bias towards Republicans. If Harris is winning there, Trump can just close up shop there.

  5. Trump will be fine when ol’ Joe storms the DNC, pushes Kamala off the podium and retakes his rightful place as the Democratic nominee.

  6. I know this is *Newsweek* but….
    When a group like Rasmussen puts out numbers favoring democrats at all… that’s big.

    How it’s even close is beyond me.

    Even if I were a diehard conservative, I’d recognize how unhinged and unprofessional he is. Never vote for someone who declares they’ll be a dictator.

  8. Just to give you an idea how bad Trashmussen’s polls are nowadays. They did a poll AFTER the 2022 Arizona gubernatorial election. The poll asked respondents who they voted for and found Kari Lake with an 8-point lead. They tried presenting this as “proof” the election was stolen.

    TLDR: Trashmussen sucks.
