If you're gonna hand wring over that you might as well give up and cower in a corner. Every possible metric says Trump loses. Every possible metric says he's down. What else do you want? This reminds me of 2018 when people convinced themselves democrats wouldn't win the House.
Exactly.

People should also realize that these polls are predicated on a turnout estimate as well.

There was some good talk on Twitter about that. R-leaning polls seem to be more accurate in low turnout situations. If D-turnout is high like we expect, we might see big numbers like 2018.

I got a sinking feeling that tRumps gonna win, everybody I know isnt voting because "fUkK bOtH!" Or they're voting for Trump because "what has Biden done for the community?"

A lot of people in 2016 (including myself) thought that the projections saying that Hillary had a 70% chance of winning meant that she was GUARANTEED to win.

But as we all know, 70% is NOT 100%.
Exactly she had a high chance of winning but everything that could go wrong went wrong in the final week. Still Trump had things working in his favor.

Yes but the issue is, the Trump campaign is probably going to juice that demo’s turnout even more.
I get that but let's be real, Barnes sits around and trolls pollsters and forecasters on Twitter all day. Part of his schtick is to get a rise out of people. The likelihood that he's picking up on anything no one else is seeing is hard to believe to me.

Anecdotal statements don't mean much of anything. The people around you don't represent all or most Black voters.

I think you guys are overreacting. If the polls are this off then we have to throw everything in the garbage that we have ever learned.
The number of white, non-college educated voters has shrunk by 3-4% since 2016.

Im just having a 2016 PTSD day brehs :mjcry:
