Okay, but why do we care about polls as much now? Haven’t they been spectacularly wrong for the past few election cycles? Not all, but I definitely feel like the overall accuracy and reliability of most national and state polling has been exceptionally poor.

In any case, I’m not at all surprised that his supporters aren’t bothered by the indictments. It’s a cult. Like, actually.

If they would just stop making EVERYTHING about him, that alone would hurt his campaign more than anything else.

It’s pop science in the marketing departments of many companies to capitalize on shock and drama as it grabs attention at a base level. That’s the way to make money.
