Polls are flawed as you know. Just take a look at Hillary in 2016 to prove the point.
The polls got the popular vote right.
America does have a system where some people's votes count more than others.
I personally think we should do away with the electoral college.
Then you'd have only two or three of the most densly populated states controlling all elections. The Founding Fathers were smarter than that.
The fascism list posted is ridiculous. It's like reading a horoscope.
It may read like a horoscope but it is commonly accepted by scholars of the subject
Yet even scholars disagree.
I'm curious, what's wrong with nationalism as opposed to globalism?
Nationalism:
noun
identification with one's own nation and support for its interests, especially to the exclusion or detriment of the interests of other nations.
Other nations have people in them.
Nationalism hurts those people.
Now I will say that that may be fine for our enemies but Trump has made enemies of our Allies and befriended dictators.

Trump does not practice any form of extreme nationalism like the media portrays. He simply puts America first. Personally I want any president to do that. I don't want a leader like Chamberlain. I want Churchill. I'm curious, what allies are now enemies? Be specific. Regarding enemies, is keeping us out of wars and peace treaties in the middle east (that's never been done before) a bad thing?
Globalism is founded on the belief that everyone would be better off if we didn't try to actively keep everyone else down.
Think no wars. or tariffs.
See above
Think reducing pollution.te
Carbon emissions are lower now than when in the Paris Climate accord.
beyond our borders do not live a lesser people
Agree
Trying to compare a VP's achievements to a President's achievements is obviously flawed.
My god he's been in government for almost 50 years.
But I will say that America achieved more growth and less debt under Obama/Biden than under Trump/Pence.
Disagree.
I am in no way trying to be disrespectful.
I simply have tried to stop posting in the far-right wing media thread.
I figure that if our board is going to constantly spew right wing biased views we may as well balance it out with some counter arguments.
I personally don't like Biden.
I personally think Trump is a pyschopath.
I do realize that politics, like religion, is a tricky subject with very heated views and beliefs.
