According to the polls, both Biden and Trump will inevitably be nominated but neither Biden nor Trump can win.

I don't know many people these days who will ever talk favorably about a politician, because inevitably you'll look like an idiot for it. But we'll still vote for the guy.
You act like that's the voters fault....
Not wanting either candidate but still voting for the lesser evil is basically our entire political system.
And it's the result of letting two "private parties" dominate our political landscape. We can't elect who we want, we can only pick between two options that both side with corporate profits over citizens the vast majority of the time.
And both parties love pointing out how primaries really don't matter. They can run anyone they want in the general and we just have to deal with it.
That's because someone will get into power regardless of whether you vote or not and it's better to vote for the lesser of two evils than the greater. Yes, it is important to push for better candidates, but when it comes to Election Day, you can't really say "Well, it's A or B, but I really want C."
Also, while both political parties have their faults, this is by no means "Both Sides Are Equally Awful." I like using a taxi analogy. You're on 8th Street and want to go to 2nd Street. Before you are two taxis: A Blue Taxi and the Red Taxi. Neither taxi will take you to 2nd Street. The Blue one will take you to 4th Street. The Red one will take you in the opposite direction, to 20th Street, before driving you off a cliff.
As I said before, not choosing isn't an option as then others will decide which taxi you go into. Therefore you need to choose which cab to go into. Now, neither is ideal, but it's a lot easier to go from 4th Street to your original destination than from the bottom of a cliff near 20th Street. Therefore, the Blue one is the better pick even if it's not a perfect choice.
It's weird that a criminal dictator in the making like donnie can have any support at all, but that's the sad state of humanity, I guess.
The poll surveyed 1,000 registered voters between Sept. 19-20, and had the margin of error varied across questions, reported as 3 percentage points. Numbers have been rounded.
Who were these registered voters? What was the demographics breakdown? How were they contacted? What was the methodology? Were the questions loaded?
Of course, the press never asks any of this.
That’s a great point. I’d also like to throw in the question “what kind of person stops to answer these polls?”. I don’t feel like younger folks are going to be quite as keen. Politics as an identity tends to be an older generational thing.
This is the biggest issues I have with pills right now. The younger demos don't answer phones, so the responses are going to be skewed, and I can't imagine there are many places that can reasonably do in person polling with any kind of reasonable mixes of demos.
There's a link below to the poll questions, but it doesn't say how the people were contacted. Given the answers about if they are voting for a Republican or Democrat and more worried about Biden's mental health over Trump's, I'm pretty sure these were phone calls, which of course, aren't accurate of the whole populace. It's all bullshit if you rely only on who picks up the phone.
On the other hand...The seven candidates on the Republican presidential debate stage last night are collectively polling at around 37% — a full 16 points below Donald Trump
I was traveling through central and eastern Washington State yesterday and I discovered a few new roadside Trump support banners up. At a restaurant in Ellensburg I saw two guys wearing Trump hats. These were a new style, not the famous one. Why do the farming communities still see Trump as a good leader? Mind boggling. The rural Washington voter is constantly voting against their own best interests and I don't mind asking them why but it never fails to come down to some bullshit right wing propaganda that is easy to point out but because I don't believe the propaganda, and question them about it, I become part of the problem. And discussing it usually just leads to them digging their heels in deeper.
You'll never, ever, change the pov of a cultist if you reveal yourself as an outsider. You have to play the angle of being one of them or being undecided. It helps if you're genuine about it and make yourself open to their ideas.
That being said, some people are illogical and can only be convinced out of a cult by using the same faulty logic that'd got them in. E.g: "Trump is deep state controlled opposition's but he doesn't know.".
I don’t think I probably need to say this but, be careful about opening yourself to cult logic if you’re not steady in your own beliefs.
This is how you flip fence dwellers into cult followers js.
You should see YouTube comments. On second thought... Just take my word for it.
Cult, bruh.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Former President Trump’s unfavorability among registered voters has topped 55 percent, according to a new poll.
A NewsNation/Decision Desk HQ poll found roughly 44 percent had a “very unfavorable” view of Trump, the highest such rating across the other seven GOP contenders tested.
Trump’s numbers come as he faces a myriad of legal battles, including multiple criminal indictments, while he campaigns to return for another four years in the White House.
Citing his significant lead in polling, he skipped the first GOP presidential debate and plans to do so for the second debate on Wednesday night, as his fellow 2024 Republican contenders gather in Simi Valley, Calif.
Hutchinson didn’t make the cut for the party’s second debate stage in California.
