Another week, another set of bad polling news for former president Donald Trump. That seems to be the pattern of late, and after months of massive polling leads over President Biden and a general overall assumption that Republicans were going to trounce to an easy win, for our side it’s demoralizing to say the least.
But is it a surprise? If it was to you, it shouldn’t have been. Replacing an inept dementia patient with someone, anyone, even half functioning was always going to merit a polling bounce as despondent Dems rallied around their new standard bearer. Same with the VP pick, even with someone as horrible and unvetted as Tim Waltz. And it’ll be the same through the convention later this month, as Democrats do everything they can to hoodwink Americans into thinking they’re normal people and not the closeted blue-haired Bolsheviks they actually are. Trust me, it didn’t matter who the non-Biden nominee was, they were going to take the lead.
The bad news? Yes, Kamala Harris has now taken the overall RCP average polling lead at .5%, and she also leads in several key swing states........
