@NolteNC is funny.

This rhetoric is right up there with the crazed purple prose of the Democrats.

I'm sure the @realDonaldTrump is as happy as I am that this election is 2016 to the power of 2016, with a side of 2016 in 2016 sauce.
He's comparing apples to aircraft carriers.
"The average of the national polls in 2016 had Trump behind Hillary by 3.2 points."
"So, as you can see, the average of the 2016 national polls was only off by 1.1 points. That’s what you call some damn fine polling, and right now those very same damn fine polls have Trump losing to Joe Biden by 9.2 points."
"Donald Trump is not only losing this election, if the election were held today, his loss would possibly be catastrophic, would be remembered as one of the most humiliating in history."
"He’s not only facing a landslide rejection of epic proportions, he’s losing to a 77-year-old imbecile and racist who’s hiding out in his basement."
Nolte gives his reasons for why Clinton lost.
"Biden is not Hillary Clinton. The shrill, corrupt, and extreme Clinton was and is loathed by just about everyone."
Clinton WON THE POPULAR VOTE, so Nolte's statement is false.
"When you are running against a president whose disapproval ratings hover between 50 and 55 percent (Rasmussen has Trump’s disapproval rating at 55 percent today), all you need be is an 'acceptable alternative.'"
No.

Trump broke voting records in the primaries, when people didn't even have to vote.

His enthusiasm level is off the charts.

And he's delivering.
IT'S ALWAYS "UNEXPECTED," ISN'T IT?

Nolte is brainwashed.

This brainwashing ALWAYS brings down enterprises.

The enterprise hires a person with a specific skill--and then CHANGES the person so that they can't USE that specific skill.
"Trump is disqualifying himself when all he had to do was rise above the fray, all he had to do was what he has promised he could do anytime he wanted — be boringly presidential."
Oh THAT would work!

Can't you just see it?

Boring Trump riding a tsunami of support back into the White House.

Trump wanted to be as movie director. The reelection is following the traditional three-act structure:
Act One: sets up the world, characters, the character’s goal, as well as the conflicts or obstacles that are preventing them from achieving their goal.

Act Two: raises the stakes for the character to achieve the goal, escalating the conflict.

Act Three: resolves the story.
Act Two is when the character experiences the most conflict.

The longer the conflict, and the more likely the defeat of the main character, the greater the tension.

TENSION IS A MOTIVATOR.
And not a single "expert" is taking into account the totally unique circumstances surrounding this election:

Pandemic, economic shutdown, mass insanity.

AND.

The Democrats are SUPPORTING the mass insanity.
Finally, we see that pollsters have abandoned the "probability sampling" that they adopted after the 1948 election, when the deeply unpopular Harry Truman creamed Thomas Dewey.

Probability sampling is random selection of subjects.
"In recent years, as fewer people respond to polls and the costs of polls have gone up, researchers have turned to non-probability based sampling methods."
There's no way to accurately gauge Trump's level of support, as reported in 2016.
1. People change their minds at the last second.

2. Most Trump supporters refused to be polled.

3. People who've never voted before can't be polled.
TODAY IT'S DANGEROUS TO ADMIT TO ANYONE THAT YOU SUPPORT TRUMP.

Does this make Trump supporters NOT support him?

NO.

It makes them go underground.

Nolte simply won't accept that Trump is smarter than he is.

TRUMP GAMED ALL OF THIS OUT.
Trump sees opportunities where others see none.

He's entirely unorthodox in his thinking.

HE'S USING SUN TZU TO GUIDE HIS CAMPAIGN.
Did Nolte unambiguously predict a Trump win in 2016?

I looked but I can't find if he did or not.

Here's the thing:

A man who had 14 million views for his first post-pandemic rally isn't going to lose the election.

Especially when the Democrats have Brownshirts.
There's permanent blind spot when it comes to Trump.

Nothing can be done to change it.

Trump uses strategic distraction like no other president.

Let's look at the five incumbent presidents who were not reelected:
William Howard Taft lost to Woodrow Wilson in 1912.

Wilson had a strong platform of economic reform.

Taft was openly controlled by special interests that created a policy of foreign interventionism including regime change.
Finally Theodore Roosevelt left the Republican party and took with him most of Taft's supporters.

As a result, Taft carried only TWO STATES in the election.

Next:
Herbert Hoover lost to Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1932.

Right after Hoover took office, the stock market crashed, and the Great Depression began.

HOOVER REFUSED TO GET INVOLVED. He said we needed free-market herd immunity.

Millions lost their properties to banks.
Hoover also famously said that black Americans were on their own.

WE HAD PROHIBITION.

Hoover drank but told everyone else NOT TO. It made Americans hate him even more.
Hoover also approved the US Army attack on the Bonus Army, World War One veterans an their families camped out in Washington DC to demand wartime bonuses for their service.

They were fired on, and two veterans were killed.

The army went in with...tanks.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt was a larger-than-life figure who was also a charisma machine.

He drove around the country and spoke to people directly, promising total reform of the system.

AND HE PROMISED NEW EVERYTHING.
New securities regulation, tariff reduction, farm relief, government-funded public works, and the repeal of Prohibition.

He massacred Hoover, who carried just six states.

Next:
Gerald Ford lost to Jimmy Carter in 1976.

Ford pardoned Nixon, which sealed his fate.

He was president during the worst economy since the Great Depression, AND HE IMPROVED NOTHING.

Ford had the highest number of veto overrides by Congress since Andrew Jackson.
Ford told Americans to STOP SPENDING in order to Whip Inflation Now (WIN), which was seen as a publicity gimmick.

And Ford's own party criticized him for not helping South Vietnam and for beginning to cede the Panama Canal.

Ford was the "presidential" figure that Nolte wants.
Jimmy Carter WAS AN OUTSIDER not tainted by the endless corruption of Washington.

The country was still traumatized by Watergate.

Carter ran on CHANGING GOVERNMENT.
His platform included public financing of congressional campaigns, the creation of a federal consumer protection agency, creating a department for education, signing a nuclear peace treaty with the USSR, reducing the defense budget, taxing the rich, and fixing Social Security.
Carter won with less states but by 57 electoral votes.

He got 50.1 percent of the popular vote to Ford's 48 percent.

Next:
Jimmy Carter lost to Ronald Reagan in 1980.

Do we really have talk about this one?

Carter was seen as an across-the-board failure, while Reagan promised a return to greatness.

And Reagan was another charisma-machine.
Finally, George H. W. Bush lost to Bill Clinton in 1992.

This is the 1980 election in reverse.

Bush was a lying wimp, and Clinton was new, charismatic, and an outsider.

Can you see that NOT ONE ELECTION was based on "anybody but ______________"?
Here's what Nolte said:

The only thing Biden has to do is seem like a reasonable alternative to Trump.

THAT IS UTTERLY FALSE.

Elections are ALWAYS based on issues.

The Democrats have no platform. Trump's platform is IN ACTION DAILY.
WHO DO THEY BLAME?

Not covered.

If you can't gauge Trump's true level of support, and nobody is asking who they blame for all of this, the polls are meaningless.
I REPEAT:

Today it's DANGEROUS to admit that you support Trump.

And did you see what happened in Kentucky?
McGrath will now face Mitch McConnell in November.

I have no doubt that she'll lose.

The final issue that the Noltes of the country refuse to accept is that Trump IS NOT RUNNING HIS CAMPAIGN.

@parscale is. And I'm sure @jaredkushner is pitching in.
Trump will keep proving the "experts" wrong until the end of his second term.

It's so funny:

"Did you notice that blah blah blah?" asked a reporter.

"I notice everything," answered Trump.

HE DOES.

The conventional "wisdom" says Trump can't win. Why?
Because of things that happened in the pre-Trump era.

THEY DON'T MATTER.

We don't know what Trump will do.

"Human ingenuity can't be predicted."

-- @greggutfeld
All we know is that Trump is prepared for all contingencies.

HE KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING.

The very fact that we can't figure it out means that he's going to win.
