You can try to make this about partisan politics all you want. It doesn't apply here. The polls are either right or they're wrong. And they were wrong. So massively wrong that Hillary supporters were blindsided on election day. That sort of thing shakes even the most steadfast authoritarian.

- krapp 7y agoYou made it partisan here: >Most of the US disagrees with you on that one. They have since the polls predicted Hilary would win in a landslide. The implication, given the context of the rest of your comment and the subthread (that the media always lies and is covering up the truth about the Epstein incident,) is that the media falsified the election poll results. After all, it wouldn't be the first time election polls were wrong. That's been a thing since at least "Dewey Defeats Truman." You could have picked any number of incidents to illustrate media bias or the media getting something wrong, but you fixated on something directly out of the Trump playbook. >That sort of thing shakes even the most steadfast authoritarian. Who's an authoritarian? Do I hear a dog-whistle?
