T-rump's "internal polling" paints a very miserable outlook for a second term

Sources from his campaign now confirm T-rump's first 'internal polling' paints a rather bleak future for a second term, starting in key battleground states. The reports were confirmed to ABC News this weekend.

Compared to Democratic front-runner Joe Biden, T-rump's internal data shows Biden leading 55% to 39% over T-rump in PA, 51-41 in WI, and a 7 point lead in FL. The poll was conducted from March 15 - March 28 by his campaign.

At first, T-rump's campaign manager lied about the poll data's existence. Just a few weeks ago, 2020 campaign manager Brad Parscale tweeted "My statement on the the #FakeNewsMedia producing stories about internal polling in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. They continue to lie with polling to fit their narrative. The fact is @realDonaldTrump is doing better now, than ever before, in our polling." when the polling information leaked out from the campaign.

This weekend he released a statement covering his lie, which says: “These leaked numbers are ancient, in campaign terms, from months-old polling that began in March before two major events had occurred: the release of the summary of the Mueller report exonerating the President, and the beginning of the Democrat candidates defining themselves with their far-left policy message.”

The other day, T-rump lied to an ABC reporter, telling him his 'internal polling' shows him beating Joe Biden 'everywhere'.

Leakers again titillate the hateful left, etc, etc...

Sure. Whatever QAnon says.

[–] Qberto (1139) 5 years ago

I guess this remains evidentiary of your inability to place me on ignore as you just promised to, so. whatever then.... ;-0

1.) Was it leaked? Yes.

2.) Is the left hateful of our President? Yes.

That really summarizes it all, doesn't it?

I saw an article on this. Every quote I read of the t rump I see signs of madness. I think narcissistic sociopaths like him end up going crazy a lot of the time. They’re always lying and to keep it up they lie to themselves. Eventually it leads to losing touch with reality.

[–] Qberto (1139) 5 years ago

Every quote I read of the t rump I see signs of madness.

The first step is to stop projecting:

https://psychologydictionary.org/projection/
"A psychoanalytical theory, projection is the process whereby one subject believes they see attributes (both good and bad) in another. The theory views this tendency as a defense mechanism whereby unenviable or unpleasant traits, impulses or ideas are attributed to another. In this way, the projector is able to avoid the unpleasantness in themselves. However, the theory goes on to explain that in severe cases of projection, the condition of projection may degenerate into paranoid delusions to the point that the projector believes others are responsible for the projector's problems and are secretly plotting against them. The projection basically allows a subject to ignore faults within themselves.

PROJECTIVE IDENTIFICATION 1
By N., Pam M.S. - April 28, 2013
A defense mechanism as described in psychoanalysis. Projection identification occurs when a subject projects their own unacceptable qualities onto another. That person (consciously or unconsciously) then internalizes the projection and comes to believe himself or herself to be characterized by it. 2. In Melanie Klein's object relations theory, projection identification is a defense mechanism in which a person fantasizes that part of their ego is split off and projected into the object, allowing for control or destruction of the part. This reinforces their feelings of omnipotence. Projective identification is a feature of Klein's paranoid-schizoid model."

In Wolff's new NYTimes best-seller "Siege: T-rump Under Fire" his White House sources (who were only too eager to spill the tea with him) would explain how his aids would have to spin the poll numbers to make him think he's doing well.

In other words, they would never present the true approval numbers to him for the past few years taken from independent, reputable pollsters (where he bounces from 38 - 42, an embarrassing place to be for approval in his third year); they would sugar-coat it with a 'FOX and FRIENDS' poll which was taken with an audience of T-rumpanzees (Neo-Nazis, White Supremacists, Anti-Semitics, etc.) who would praise the job he's doing as President. SO they would go into the Oval Office each morning with the latest results which had him in the top 10% of 'approval' and he would believe this, and repeat this in public. They knew he wasn't smart enough to check on the real, accurate polls which show him failing 'bigly'.

In Wolff's new NYTimes best-seller "Siege: T-rump Under Fire" his White House sources (who were only too eager to spill the tea with him) would explain how his aids would have to spin the poll numbers to make him think he's doing well.

1.) Wolff is an avowed Trump hater well-known for rank disinformation and naked lies:

Even Trump Hater Mitch McConnell Says Wolff Is Lying, Calls Him Out on False Story.

2.) Wolff then must be dismissed as anything but impartial and his "sources"/leakers as credible or less than Christopher Steele.

Sorry you're so easily brainwashed.

2020 is quite a ways off, enjoy!

[–] yatzo376 (7441) 5 years ago

Naked lies from Trump!?

Yr kidding....right?!

[–] Qberto (1139) 5 years ago

Naked lies from Trump!?

No, from Wolff - can't you even pretend to be capable of reading for content and flow?

[–] yatzo376 (7441) 5 years ago

What? Trump lied again?

[–] Qberto (1139) 5 years ago

No, but Wolff did, as you are well aware.

[–] yatzo376 (7441) 5 years ago

It’s quite unusual when our fearless leader stretches the truth, don’tcha think?

[–] Qberto (1139) 5 years ago

Compared to the Steele dossier "trVth"?

Not even the same arena.

[–] yatzo376 (7441) 5 years ago

The Steele dossier was barely mentioned in the Mueller report but you wouldn’t know that because you didn’t read it! Shame on you knucklehead!.

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

Yep. He lied again and again and again....

His minions eat it up.

[–] Qberto (1139) 5 years ago

FIFY

A computer-voiced youtube video is not a credible source.

I'm reading Siege and it's very accurate. One of Wolf's main sources is Steve Bannon who also was the main source in his last book. If you knew anything, then you'd know that Bannon actually likes Trump's agenda.

It's very clear in both of his books, that Trump was easily manipulated. Both books explain what happened behind the scenes. For instance, Trump supported the bipartisan budget bill but was attacked by Fox TV commentators. After the attack, Trump changed his mind. It turned out that Bannon was the one who phoned Fox commentators to get them to complain about Trump's support since the bill didn't include billions for the wall (that Mexico was to finance).

I remember the bill and Trump changing his mind after the Fox attacks. It's interesting to read why Fox suddenly attacked him.

The Republicans also convinced Trump that the bill provided a "down payment" for the wall which is why he initially supported it..

Bannon, the Republican Party and Trump knew the wall wasn't practical and could never be funded. It was a lie that moved his dopey cult followers which is why they keep bringing it up.

I've read close to a dozen books about him by various parties and they are all consistent.

[–] Qberto (1139) 5 years ago

A computer-voiced youtube video is not a credible source.

Transmitted by whatever means, voice, print, or video, the data remains factual and accurate.

Once again the petty, pedantic left thinks that by playing "shoot the messenger" the message also dies.

But it does not.

Wolff was and is a LIAR of the worst kind.

End of story, believe as many fantasies as it takes to make your hateful hothouse flowers blossom.

[–] Keelai (31786) 5 years ago

"Transmitted by whatever means, voice, print, or video, the data remains factual and accurate."

No, it doesn't. It's likely from a foreign sock puppet source which is why a fake computer voice is used to disguise an accent. And they are anonymous. What are they hiding?

Wolf at least puts his name on his book and quotes sources. The last time an author was called a liar, tapes were produced. Remember Omorosa? Her book was very good too.

You're criticizing a book which you haven't read. That makes you very close-minded and ignorant.

The books read like a real life Game for Thrones with Joffrey as president. Many personnel in the White House with different agendas attack each other. Obviously, there are traditional Republicans, Democrats and alt-right fighting each other and forming alliances behind the scenes.

"Mitch McConnell Says Wolff Is Lying, Calls Him Out on False Story."

Next source:

https://www.westernjournal.com/ct/mcconnell-says-wolff-is-lying/
As reported by Newsmax, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, slammed an assertion in Wolff’s book that the Kentucky Republican blew off a meeting with President Donald Trump last year to get a haircut.

“I can confirm: this never happened,” said McConnell’s deputy chief of staff Don Stewart via Twitter on Saturday.
In an email to Vox, Stewart said the claim was completely false.

“No one ‘blew him off’ and in fact, the meeting occurred as soon as members returned to Washington after Labor Day,” Stewart said, adding that no staffer “ever turned down the meeting citing a haircut. That never happened. The author didn’t bother to check either of those points and ended up getting both wrong in his book (as he did with so many others).”

McConnell isn’t the only one excoriating Wolff’s tome of nonsense. Trump and many others have refuted key claims in the book.

On Thursday, Trump tweeted that Wolff’s entire book was “full of lies, misrepresentations and sources that don’t exist.”

I authorized Zero access to White House (actually turned him down many times) for author of phony book! I never spoke to him for book. Full of lies, misrepresentations and sources that don’t exist. Look at this guy’s past and watch what happens to him and Sloppy Steve!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 5, 2018
Many others followed his lead.

Stephanie Grisham, a spokeswoman for first lady Melania Trump, said: “The book is clearly going to be sold in the bargain fiction section. Mrs. Trump supported her husband’s decision to run for president and in fact, encouraged him to do so.

[–] Keelai (31786) 5 years ago

Mitch McConnell has no credibility. He's almost as sleazy and dishonest as Trump.

Siege is number #2 on the Amazon best selling list and #4 on the NY Times'!

Wolf interviewed 150 people for "Siege". Most people who spoke to Wolf for his first book have returned to be interviewed again for more interesting tidbits about President Joffrey.

It's common knowledge and in several books by different authors that Trump will phone friends to complain:

"“I can’t get the asshole off the phone,” Rupert Murdoch once said of Trump, “holding out the phone as the president’s voice rambled into the air,” according to Wolff." LOL!

The book confirms that most people he works with smile in his face, but they dislike him and consider him crazy:

"As one of those people—described by Wolff as a “staff member who has spent almost countless hours with the president”—put it: “I have never met anyone crazier than Donald Trump.”

[–] Qberto (1139) 5 years ago

Mitch McConnell has no credibility.

More "shoot the messenger" - dismissed!

"Anna Wintour, the longtime Vogue editor, fired back at an assertion in the book that she begged Trump to appoint her as his ambassador to the United Kingdom, calling Wolff’s claim: “laughably preposterous.”

"Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who Wolff wrote in the book warned Trump he was under surveillance by British spies, called the claims “categorically absurd” and “simply untrue.”

etc...

[–] Keelai (31786) 5 years ago

Once again,you're criticizing a book that you haven't read and you're mentioning old articles that have nothing to do with the book which makes you a liar.

Blair didn't mention anything about Siege. You have an old, old story that has nothing to do with his book. BTW, Tony Blair helped start a war by chasing "weapons of mass destruction" in Iraq? He's a liar!

McConnell is the devil. At least Trump has the excuse of mental illness for his own erratic behavior. McConnell makes fun of Trump behind his back which is mentioned in the book.

Wintour rumor is from at least 2012 which has nothing to do with Siege.

The book mentions events that have already made the news. It only details the events behind the scenes. Various news people have already mentioned all the leaks from the Trump Admin. incl. Trump. The Trump poll showing him behind Biden is one such leak!!

"Trump’s staff tries to keep him occupied with junk food, late-night Hannity calls, and pointless meetings to distract him from anything that might make him fly into a rage.

For as long as Trump has been in offices, his staffers have leaked details about what a dysfunctional nightmare it is to work for such a paranoid, abusive boss. West Wing casualties Sean Spicer and Reince Priebus reportedly encouraged their old boss to watch as much Fox News as possible under the assumption that constant praise would pacify their unruly boss.

According to the New York Times’s review of Siege, the book claims that Trump’s aides’ task themselves with keeping the president “in his ‘bubble,’ munching candy bars at night and getting his ego stroked in marathon phone calls with the Fox News host Sean Hannity.” The fact that Trump exists in an echo chamber driven by men like Hannity and Lou Dobbs is well-documented."

The book is a fascinating look into T-rumps WH. The number of people who hate him and working against him is astonishing -all while working under him.

[–] Keelai (31786) 5 years ago

And it continues. He just fired his pollsters for leaking the results (after his denial that they were current or negative.)

Another leak today is how the Pentagon won't share information with him because they fear he will tell the Russians or other hostile governments. The U.S. has stepped up cyber attacks against Russia and wouldn't tell Trump.

[–] joi2049 (5488) 5 years ago

His CHARACTER is APPAULING.

He ACCUSES EVERYTHING ELSE of being FAKE, but it's PERFECTLY CLEAR to MOST of US now how EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM is FAKE.

What will he do when he LEAVES office???

Can you see anyone being willing to HIRE HIM to do another TV SHOW again???

I can't.

Who would even want to watch a SHOW with him in it now???

[–] Keelai (31786) 5 years ago

He and his family will be in legal hot water when he leaves. That will be the best time to strike.

According to "Siege", Mueller passed on their findings to the Southern District of New York for multiple investigations. Trump and his family don't only fear imprisonment, but bankruptcy from multiple large fines.

Trump's original plan was to start a new conservative network.

[–] joi2049 (5488) 5 years ago

Do you think FOX would ever put up with his running a TV show that might also be COMPETITION for them and their VIEWERS???

[–] Keelai (31786) 5 years ago

He won't be in politics at that time therefore it won't matter.. He has his cult to watch his network. My guess is that it'll be more alt-right and Fox will return to a traditional Republican agenda.

[–] joi2049 (5488) 5 years ago

So what's he going to talk about on his show???

Still More RACIST and SEXIST topics like we've heard before at one of those RIDICULOUS REPETITIVE RALLIES???

Members of his CULT have already gotten BORED with listening to him BLOWING LOTS of EMPTY HOT AIR around at them because they're also aren't as many of them as there were before attending them anymore.

And They also say he can't string together complete sentences, and that he also keeps repeating himself all of the time, which they also believe is a result of the early signs of DEMENIA setting in.

So under those conditions, how long would another TV SHOW with him as the HOST of it last???

And If he also tries to do a SHOW where he interviews OTHER GUEST …
that would also NEVER WORK ... due to the way he CONSTANTLY KEEPS INTERRUPTING people by saying EXCUSE ME ... so that he can keep HOGGING ALL of the CONVERSATIONS that he has with other people[/b]

The only kind of SHOW I can see working is if he and the REST of HIS SPAWN end up BROKE, HOMELESS, and BEGGING the GOVERNMENT for FOOD STAMPS and for HELP with their RENT.

Then LOTS of people would probably be WILLING to TUNE IN and WATCH IT simply for the SATISFACTION of seeing him find out what it feels like to BEG and NOT to have LOTS of MONEY handed to you by your FATHER.

[–] Keelai (31786) 5 years ago

Not TV show. Network.

He doesn't have to have his own TV show. His network would produce or license other people's TV shows with a conservative or alt-right slant.

It would be a financial investment.

[–] ultravioletx (10212) 5 years ago

It wouldn't surprise me. He sees himself as Ailes and Murdoch rolled into one. Trump probably believes he could somehow get all of CNN's viewers and surpass their ratings.

[–] Keelai (31786) 5 years ago

His dopey followers don't listen to CNN. They follow Fox "News" and Breitbart. Also conspiracy theorists believers who follow Alex Jones.

The network will probably spin nonsense and his brainwashed viewers will believe it.

[–] ultravioletx (10212) 5 years ago

Word has it Alex Jones is looking for a new platform to spew his hate and vitriol. Maybe Trump will provide him one.

[–] Bubbathegut (17215) 5 years ago

Comey used to leak info to the press too.

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

I’m reading the book, too. Pretty fascinating!

[–] Keelai (31786) 5 years ago

What a nut he is! I wish someone would secretly record his Joffrey moments.

[–] HarlemEagle42 (16135) 5 years ago

Egh, let him lie. His fans will eat it up so that way, once he loses reelection they'd know how the Clintonistas felt. Of course, the Dems could still fuck this up.

[–] Qberto (1139) 5 years ago

Of course, the Dems could still fuck this up.

"Could"???

Conditonal tense is wishful thinking.

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

Yes his lies stir up the crazy in his base.

[–] Qberto (1139) 5 years ago

Says a shill supporting the fascist, censorious, treasonous left.

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

People love Uncle Joe, and know he will give us the steady, thoughtful leadership we've been missing under Trump.

[–] Keelai (31786) 5 years ago

In 2016, many Americans wanted change. Clinton was the wrong candidate at that time since she represented status quo. Sanders vs Trump would've been better.

Now, Americans want a return back to normalcy after having that nut in the White House. Biden is the perfect candidate for that.

[–] Qberto (1139) 5 years ago

Now, Americans want a return back to normalcy after having that nut in the White House. Biden is the perfect candidate for that.

Things that are anything BUT "normalcy":

1.) Open borders

2.) Free health care for illegals

3.) Guaranteed income

4.) Student loan debt cancellation.

5.) Claims that we have nothing to fear from China.

6.) Hyde amendment flip flops.

etc....

[–] Keelai (31786) 5 years ago

Normalcy:

It will be great to have a true American president rather than a Manchurian hateful nut job and pathological liar who kisses the ring of autocrats and is basically a criminal. An evil Hitler wannabe who believes a bigoted mob screaming "Jews will not replace us!" are very fine people.

I knew Americans would begin to realize Trump was a lying piece of filth who would do nothing for them. Many of his former supporters are embarrassed they voted for him. Farmers are the last group to wake-up before they all go bankrupt.

Americans are much better than the orange sleazebag in the White House:

[–] Rorikon (16364) 5 years ago

Lol, he's firing the pollsters now. I wonder what he'll do if he doesn't win. Maher might be right in him not wanting to leave, telling his drones to rise up and that everything was rigged.

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

When he loses, he will look at those 'alternate results' which Kellyanne Conway will provide to him, and he will see himself as a 'winner'. He and his admins are all that crazy.

[–] Qberto (1139) 5 years ago

When he loses,

He won't.

[–] Sandoz (2021) 5 years ago

Once Trump loses in 2020, I'd really like to see him try some shit like disputing the election results and throwing a tantrum and refusing to leave the White House. It would be so fitting to see the nice men in white coats come and drag him out with a strait-jacket on. Kinda like what happened to Assange...
