Look what the cat dragged in
We all know Maga does some very stupid things. But they’ve really gone over the bend with this one. Look what the cat dragged in — quite literally. On Twitter, “Make America Great Again, INC” proudly touted a poll showing Trump beating Ron DeSantis. And Trump IS beating DeSantis. That’s not the bizarre part. It is the poll they chose to use.
Polls, as you know, must include random sampling. The data must be clean, and any legitimate poll takes pains to ensure that it is. Not this poll. The Magas on Twitter cited a poll that the cat dragged in — literally. The name of the person doing this poll is catturd.
Now, Catturd is a Trump superfan (and a favorite chatting companion of Elon Musk’s.) The thing is — The Trumpers proudly hawked this poll as if it were real: “Poll conducted by @catturd2 Juner 28,2023, 80,818 votes.”
People — this is FAKE. It could be, for all we know, the same damn people voting multiple times. And it’s embarrassing or should be for the GOP. Are they going to go on Fox and Proudly speak of a poll, not by Catturd? Is there NO shame in anything the Republicans do?
Of course, other true media organizations made enormous fun of this feline poll. From The Atlantic’s Charlie Warzel: “Just feeling grateful I was born when I was so that I get to be alive to witness this kind of shit.”
