They're worried! Right wing radio host Bill Mitchell tweeted:
Imagine polls don't exist. Show me evidence Hillary is winning?

@mitchellvii If we imagine polls dont exist, then DJT only tweeted like six or seven times in the first 6 months of his campaign.

Imagine @mitchellvii doesn't exist. Show me how much time I would have saved not reading his inane tweet

They're looking at the numbers, and even the dumbest GOP operatives can do a LITTLE math and see which way the wind blows. And article in The Hill about the ridiculous tweet: http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/290769-pro-trump-radio-host-imagine-polls-dont-exist

Don't say the Trump campaign has no vision. That's all they seem to have.

(3,280 posts)7. And hearing voices, too
Trump keeps saying he's hearing many people. Many people are saying this... Many people are saying that...
Either he's got a hearing aid that's picking up right wing conspiracy talk radio, or he needs to start medicating for the voices in his head.

No polls to scare us. A loss is just a lie.
