Donald Trump has psychotic meltdown after Fox News suggests it’s all slipping away from him
If you know anything about elections, you know a couple things about how the polls work. First, you always want to look at the polling averages, and not just any one poll, in order to see a trend. Second, even though Fox News is mostly dishonest far-right propaganda, for some reason it conducts pretty accurate election polling.
Donald Trump doesn’t appear to be aware of either of these things. Whenever Fox News releases yet another poll that says he’s losing roughly as badly as every other poll says, he throws a fit. The latest Fox News polling suggests that not only is Trump as far behind as ever on a national level, some key swing states like Arizona are now incrementally slipping away from him.
Let’s just say that Trump isn’t happy about this. He tweeted “Fox News Polls are, as in the past, Fake News. They have been from the beginning, way off in 2016. Get a new pollster. I believe we are leading BIG!” Then in a subsequent tweet, Trump went on to blame the Fox News poll for the fact that the stock market is down today.
So there you have it. Instead of accepting the reality that he’s currently losing and trying to do something to turn things around, Donald Trump is now reduced to trying to convince himself that he’s secretly winning, and that the entire media and polling industry – including Fox News – is now conspiring against him to pretend otherwise and tank the economy. This guy needs medical attention.
