    Of coarse they can. Ask 100 women if women are better drivers than men. Then ask 100 men if women are better drivers than men.
    You will get two totally different results.

    I expect you to be banned by the end of the day. Thanks for playing.
    What was the "arguement" that I was supposed to be deflecting?
    And how was I "defending" him directly?

    And are polls conducted by explicitly seeking out biased groups? No, of course not. This is an inane complaint.

    But I don't think you have any idea what Liberal(-conservatives) push around here, you guys have a strange view of liberals.
    As much as I wish the liberal(-conservatives) would lose power to the left or even the center-liberals, it aint gonna happen.
    We all know how accurate the bias media's polls are.

    As I stated, polls can easily be skewed. That was an example of how they can be easily be skewed. Albeit a simplistic one.

    I got the data from multiple polls, and yes, they are decent.
    Nobody wants to work with Wilders(far right), so the VVD(lib-conservatives) just has to keep itself above the christian/center/left wing parties/


    And what do you know about Dutch polls?

    It's pretty much what I'm fishing for.

    Easily skewed nonetheless.
    Yet many unwittingly stand by them.

    Oh wow, so your saying more than 5 people voted in the presidential election? Well that's really embarrassing, I like totally never knew that.

    This is why I love this forum, every now and then someone helpful comes along to point things like this out to me.

    Like pointing out that if A gets more votes than B, that makes A more popular than B?

    *sigh*

    I'm not sure what is hard to understand here. Yes, Hillary won more votes than Trump out of the people who bothered to vote. If that's what you lot want to cling to that's great, but it's hollow and meaningless because not everyone voted.

    the only one not understanding something here is you.


    The statement "she won the popular vote" Means she had more votes than anyone else. It has nothing to do with if everyone voted or not. Just because you don't like that doesn't change it.

    So you're trying to claim that he's really more popular if you count people who don't vote?

Its a joke at this point. The media lost all credibility also in the year leading up to Nov with how they covered the elections. No one except die hard Trump haters trust them anymore. People need to chill the fuck out and stop with the non stop Trump rhetoric if you want to be taken even remotely seriously on him. The Sky is not falling just because cnn think it is.
    Except he openly suggested to build a financially unviable wall for no justifiable reason, kept being inconsistent out the wazoo and has conflicting interests.

    No need to get triggered about that he's obviously unfit.

    All you have to do is pay the $200,000 a year Mar-a-lago membership fee.

    Then you can sit-in in a top secret, open air situation room with the president as he deals with international crisis, take pics of it to put on Facebook, have him ask you for personnel advice and call you "special people".

    Literally pay to play.
