The polls actually weren’t wrong in 2016. She was predicted to win by 2.5% nationally. That’s exactly what she did in the general. She lost because trump totally had better local internal polling and was able to target a couple key states and counties and barely win. They even had a secret campaign to discourage black people from voting at all.
Look at the polls this time. Places she had a lead within the margin of error , Biden has 6-9% leads. That’s triple her lead. And he’s not neglecting WI, MN, MI, PA and OH like she did. There’s a dead heat in Ohio?!?! And that’s not even talking places like NC, FL, or AZ where Biden might get a victory. And there’s no way black folk are staying home this time. BLM and killer cops have guaranteed that.
Nobody on the fence feels sorry for Trump. He has mishandled covid from day one. He didn’t wear the mask and got it. They are hoping it wakes him up to bring serious about it, not some pity vote. Who feels sorry for the rich guy who takes a helicopter to the hospital? Not some janitor or chef who is currently out if work because we are still shut down due to this thing.

I think you have a good point, and to be honest I'm way out of touch on things Stateside and culturally too. I did say though before, the USA was a sitting duck for Covid, not unlike many countries, the UK for example where it is rampant. I can't even get my motor overhauled there in Cambridge due to Covid lockdown and nothing seems to be changing for the better anytime soon. My motor should have been done and here already in late summer. They haven't even started on it.
That said, how many countries are in dire straights besides the US? Many I believe. I'm not sure everyone can blame the leaders of those countries, not that they won't. I'm just thinking that not all Americans will be blaming Trump for this, but who knows? Certainly they will want to blame someone. Everybody needs a scapegoat when times are tough. Question is, who is it gonna be? The media? The right or the left politicians? China is a possible scapegoat. Anyway, they got Trump with the Kung Flu as he put it. They are sure to be laughing as we speak.
