    Did you pay attention to the details? There was one poll that was a clear outlier. Perhaps you purposely choose not to see that…

    Anyway, nobody cares about VP. It is so ridiculous for you to bring this up knowing VP really doesn’t do much. I suppose you don’t have any better example. That proves my point.

      Im sorry, do we trust 538s polling average you cited again or not? I honestly can’t keep up with your gymnastics. What citations would you like to cherry pick again?

      Ahh right. Being VP isn’t center stage but checks notes being nothing for 4 years still constitutes as center stage. Got it. You should try out for the Olympics.

        Did you read the whole conversation chain? Someone cited 538 but the link was not correct. I responded with the correct 538 link. 538 has its issues so it is certainly not my favorite. In the past 4 years, Trump was the unquestionable leader of the GOP party, far more influential than another else to the GOP. Was Biden the leader of the Democratic party when he was the VP. Clearly no, not even close. He wasn’t even top 3 in terms of people most influential to the Democratic party.

          I used your specific 538 source ya goober. You can’t give a source and then cherry pick what i should read from it.

          I heard didly from Trump for years until he started campaigning again. The GOP establishment turned their back on him after he lost the 2020 election. But sure. Unquestionable leader.

          But you’re really just going to make up whatever definitions that suits your narrative. Trump was the unquestionable leader after he became a pariah but the VP is not at the center of politics at all. Absolutely wild assertions.

            Again, I wasn’t the one using 538. I just put in the correct link since the person initially provided the 538 source didn’t provide the correct link. It was clear from the conversation. Not sure what is your problem.

            It is ridiculous to say you didn’t hear from Trump for years. Did you live in the middle of nowhere with no Internet access? LOL

              No. I just don’t use truth social. And for 2.5 years after the 2020 election I didn’t hear anything about trump and it was glorious. And I pay attention to politics.

              P.s. your real clear polling link has trump doing worse that 538, so maybe you should just stick to 538.

                I never used truth social either. He has been all over the news throughout the 4 years.

                538 weights the polls but with liberal biased. RealClearPolitics doesn’t weight their polls, but you need to look carefully at the outliers.
