   Insider Advantage correctly predicted Trump's sweep   
   of the seven swing states. Rasmussen Reports polling   
   predicted Trump's win, while the left-leaning Morning   
   Consult incorrectly predicted a Kamala Harris victory.

   I'm just amazed at the way our LYING "mainstream"   
   media give their ill-informed audience the false   
   impression that Rasmussen Reports and Insider   
   Advantage are conservative polls and therefore   
   can't be trusted -- while they simultaneously   
   promote left-leaning polls that are crap.   
      
   And their ill-informed audience believes the LIE   
   that conservative polls (despite their accuracy)   
   can't be trusted, while left-leaning polls that   
   are crap are the polls to be trusted. But then   
   that's what the corporate chieftains want these   
   days, an ill-informed population that can be so   
   easily manipulated as they work to destroy our   
   country.
