Trump erases Joe Biden's five-point lead in Texas, polls show

This is what I have been talking about. All it took was the furthest left trying to brand themselves as representative of the whole and the house of cards crashed down, and even though all this is happening on Trump's watch it will be easy to brand Biden as representative of all that is wrong with inner city America today.

Hell, protests aside, people are swarming out of the big cities due to the virus. Apparently Utopia isn't Utopia after all.
 
1 poll, 2 months out in a state where Trump should be up by 10+...hardly something to brag about...

Ummmmmmmmmmm, did you ever hear of sports momentum? Guess not because you're too busy kneeling during the national anthem and backing players and owners for supporting a domestic abuser/sexual assaulter. Also, you need a history lesson on the 2016 election.
 
It's called pathetic desperation. Trump is having to spend a ton of money trying to keep a state he should never even have to campaign in.

Ummmmmmmmmmm, Hillary far, far outspent Trump in the 2016 election.
 
What is your point? That Clinton had to fight for Wisconsin yet still lost it? Trump having to fight for Texas is like a Democrat having to fight for California.

This election mirrors 2016 very strongly.
 
Trumpsters will latch onto any good news. Too bad it really isn't good news.

Trump won Texas in 2016 by 9 points. As of the last FiveThirtyFive poll reports, one poll has Trump up by 2 pts and another taken at the same time has Biden up by 1 pt. In the Sept 4 poll, Biden leads by 3 pts and in the Sept 1 poll, Trump leads by 1 pt.

So, in a state that Trump won by 9 pts four years ago, today each candidate is within the margin of error. That means that the Trump campaign, that normally wouldn't spend a dime in Texas has to now expend money when it's been reported they are short of cash and have postponed advertising in many markets. His [Trump's] campaign also appears to be facing a significant financial crunch and has largely ceased advertising on television even as Mr. Biden begins to spend heavily from his war chest after raising about $365 million in August.

Meanwhile, Texas is not a must-win state for Biden but is for Trump, as is Florida, where it is also close, where the C- rated Trafalgar Group poll has Trump up by 3 pts while all the other polls have Biden up by 3 - 7 pts.

Biden's got it locked up this year. So, with the virus and mail thing it isn't worth the time for Democrats to vote. But, I highly encourage Democrats who still want to vote to vote by mail.

The lesson of the 2016 election is simple... the US election system is broken.

Particularly since Biden is still leading among likely voters, a fact that Murdoch media stuffed deep in the article.

So your love of your country is so great that you want it to be like the state of California and NY and cities like Seattle, Portland, LA, SF, Chicago, Minneapolis, Kenosha, NYC? Cannot get over your hatred of personal responsibility and the private sector, can you? Your support for Biden speaks volumes about your ideology, ignore it, promote it, and get the same results over and over again

Working class.americans have been fooled by republican rhetoric for decades

If they could.only quit listening and study what republicans really accomplish they would.see none of it is good for them.

Was it ever? (Legit question.)

The beacons of modern liberalism in this nation be it New York, California, Oregon, or perhaps Washington. The cities of these States, like New York or LA. But we can shuffle up to Portland or Seattle and when bored head over to Chicago, Detroit, Boston, Philadelphia, Atlanta, St. Louis, and others. How did all that wonderful 'we can fix it all' modern liberalism work out for these cities?

I am not talking about the low hanging fruit arguments of riots and vandalism, or even concentrations of criminal activity, or even liberal mayors running away from their flock.

What about the sociology and economics of the matter, in that modern liberalism simply cannot legislate enough both compliance and forcing the ends even when trying to literally and ideologically enslave the nation using the very same rhetoric Germany thought up... some three times now... and started a few wars over along the way.

All the virus did was expose a problem in President OrangeGlow's administration of ass kissing, unpreparedness, and general worthlessness.

The utopia of the left as an alternative to white nationalism utopia from the right ended up being just as much of a national **** show.

With city after city as examples, with statistic after statistic of institutional racism alive and well, with this nation leading others in categories you would not want to lead in.

We ****ed this up, and umpteenth-downed on the idea that the aristocracy of the left cared slightly more for everyone else than the aristocracy on the right.
 
Joe Biden's five-point lead in Texas polls has vanished



Looks like the Democrat-led riots and gaslighting campaign to blame it all on Trump have finally backfired on them. Serves them right.

Lol. I actually laughed out loud reading this. The fact that Biden is even competitive in Texas speaks volumes. Analysts have been saying for months that Biden has made Texas competitive but it was still likely to tilt to Trump by 3-4 points in the end.

Talk to me when Trump is neck and neck with Biden in California.
 
why is Trump fighting for TEXAS??

You appear to be greatly exaggerating the shift. Of course, someone lying about the protests and the riots would be prone to also be willing to mislead people about other stuff.

538's analysis, which factors in all the polls, never had Biden up above more 0.8%.

The best poll only had Biden up by 3%.

Wrong, far too many working Class Americans have bought the liberal rhetoric and are now dependent on it. Apparently what is going on in liberal cities and states around the nation doesn't resonate with partisan liberal elites who live in a bubble, are financially well off and really don't care about results in Seattle, Portland, LA, SF, Chicago, Minneapolis, Kenosha, NYC or liberal states like California leading the nation in poverty, homeless, pollution, worst quality of life, high wage gap and cost of living.

TX isn't going to go liberal as we have a Governor and Legislature that won't let that happen

Keep buying poll numbers you want to believe and I will keep buying policies and programs that benefit my state

I am showing you data from all the polls, not just the ones that favor Biden. The OP framed this poll as marking a huge shift in opinion. This isn't true if we look at all the polls. The 5 point shift is only with respect to the Tyler university poll from July. This 5 point shift is not reflected in the other polls.

POS basically wrote propaganda by saying there has been this huge shift in opinion, but there hasn't been a huge shift in opinion. He was lying.

i didn't expect Texas to flip blue yet. probably eventually, but maybe not this election. if it does, it would be a nice surprise, though.

Yes you are showing poll numbers today as if they matter, tell me exactly why you want our country to run like California and NY or cities like Portland, Seattle, LA, SF, Chicago, Minneapolis, Kenosha, NYC?

Opinion polls are changing as more and more people are paying attention to what liberalism has offered in the areas I mentioned but for some reason you ignore that reality. Another issue you want to ignore is the Kamala Harris factor of being a heartbeat from the Presidency. Is her ideology what you support?

Nice surprise? So you have no problem with the liberal ideology and liberal results or having the most radical candidate a heartbeat from the Presidency? You are blinded by an ideology that is a fraud or are you simply pimping for posts?

You should be thankful for places like California, which you know nothing of other than right wing spin. fact is there are lots of right wingnuts in California, and they have wreaked havoc in California for decades. You know nothing about any of the other cities you mention other than right wing spin.
You probably come from some rural bigoted areas, that think you can create a fictional "Mayberry"... and act like you live in Hootersville ... when fact is the world is far removed form that TV imagery. You might want to pay attention to the Age of Information and the Era of Technology that continues to evolve into the future. Nations around the world are moving fast and these Rural Gerrymandered Cult Enclaves, continue to want to regress America...
the innovative mind of progressive people will built the future, and these Rural and Other Gerrymandered Cult Enclaves will create their own suffering, because the world will not stop and wait for them to catch up... Life and Times have always moved forward and will continue to do so.

you talk about personal responsibility, but Conservatives have nothing more than "worship the white man in a suit, who claims to have money"... while they expect him to give them something they have not prepared themselves to earn or achieve. Trump "ain't" gonna give you guys anything. If you did not learn that from the $2.-$3... pittance a day tax break, while they wealthy got Massive tax relief... then you guys are as insidious as were the Confederates, who fought to protect the Plutocracy's Agenda and its Autocratic Madness of Wealthy Slave Owners.
