4. For everyone one dismissing the polls, even more so after Tuesday, what they don't get...

...is the polls are more than accurate enough to tell us that a HUGE portion of the public does not at all grasp the risk of a second Trump presidency. Not by a long shot.

That should deeply frighten you, even if you think (probably correctly) that Biden's chances of winning are much better than polls are telling us.

Even badly designed polls would be showing Trump trailing by double digits if so many would-be American voters weren't ignorant or tuned out or simply nasty enough to know what Trump is all about and actually want that for this country.

There's no good excuse for an adult American to need for the election to be closer to understand how hugely better Biden is than Trump, for a responsible adult American to need good "messaging" from Democrats in order to be adamantly against Trump the way any sensible, decent human being should be, without any special effort being needed to convince them of that.
