“On the other hand, a staggering 83% of Republicans argue that Trump should stay in the race”…
Well of course what Democrats say surely doesn’t mean anything. And “independents”? which sane person can still be “independent” at this day and age? Like when they make those symposiums with the “undecided” a few days before the election you got to wonder – how can you still not know between Biden and Trump… But eventually most of them come around.
So the 83% is what really matters…
Tell us why he kept these documents some people say in his toilet if not only for his own ego
The only thing that matters with this detailed article is:
Does Trump have the votes to win the General Election? Otherwise he should get out of race and give another Republican the chance
Any fresh republican will be totally destroyed in general election by Democrat media machine. Just remember what happened to Kavanaugh. If not for Trump’s unwavering support he would have been a goner. Remember Dems have not rules or standards when it comes to smearing opponents or “winning” elections!
AND 50% SAY HE SHOULD STAY IN THE RACE
Well. Polls originally said Trump will never win the elections. Bite we know him as ev president Trump so we know the polls aren’t worth the paper nor the digital space they are printed on. That being said Biden also had secret documents in his garage. And not president Biden but Hunter Biden his addicted son. Go figure why he wasn’t indicted. But let’s keep Joe Biden in power. G-d saves the Queen
Polling green card holders shouldn’t count
