Without evidence, the Republican vice presidential candidate tried to cast doubt on his opponent’s obvious momentum: “If you talk to insiders in the Kamala Harris campaign, they’re very worried about where they are”

You’ve heard Donald Trump cry “fakenews” too many times to count, and now his running mate is claiming — without evidence — that the media is using “fake polls” to show Vice President Kamala Harris is in the lead in the presidential race.

In an interview on Fox News Sunday, Sen. J.D. Vance alleged that “The media uses fake polls to drive down Republican turnout and to create dissension and conflict with Republican voters.”

    It’s only fake news when it goes against their agenda. Otherwise, it’s bigly accurate.

      If Trump were still leading, we’d hear how its going to be a Red Wave and he’s going to do 10-pts better than advertised.

      If he’s losing, its cause he’s secretly winning.

      If he’s losing bad, its cause there’s a vast deep state conspiracy and don’t trust the elections its just like Vuvuzela.
