“Was hopeful this pod would present an actual roadmap to defeating Donald Trump but unfortunately the host’s only idea is “don’t listen to the polls,” which is obviously completely delusional.
I know pollsters and have been polled myself. It’s foolish not to listen to them when they’ve consistently been correct. The only thing American polls have gotten wrong in the last 2 elections was underestimating Donald Trump’s popularity. So we can assume he’s not just leading by 5-10 points, as all the major polls show, but is probably leading by more like 15-20. November will be a landslide if Democrats don’t have a plan beyond ignoring the polls.
P.S. The polls in France were correct, it literally took dozens of leftist candidates dropping out of the race in order to not split the left vote enough to defeat the far right. The far right still has huge support in France but they have many more candidates than us so the same strategy can not be applied here.”
