CLOSING THE GAP?

The BBC cannot help itself. Elsewhere, here is how the last ABC Poll in the US is being reported,

From the Independent.

Donald Trump overtakes Hillary Clinton for first time since May in ABC poll

From the Telegraph.

Donald Trump leads Hillary Clinton in poll for first time since May in wake of email scandal

And the BBC?

Memo to BBC. He is ahead. It’s Clinton that now faces a gap. Deal with it.

    On Thursday at 9pm, BBC 2 is doing a hatchet job on Trump called “Conspiracy Files: The Trump Dossier” about Trumps Conspiracy Theories.

    I guess it will include Conspiracy Theories such as the Assassination of JFK and Conspiracy Theories Trump no longer supports, such as Obama not born in Hawaii and any other disproved Theories once supported by Trump in the past. And any other conspiracy theories that the BBC types regard as funny, not possible, or don’t want to be true.

    But it probably wont include Conspiracy Theories about Climate Politics and Science, which are mostly true, as well as any other proven Conspiracy Theories. In fact I believe the BBC could pull the Program off air if as I have heard, one or more of those Conspiracy Theories about Hillary Clinton, have been proven true by those emails.

    We can find out about this on Wednesday at 8.30pm, on RT, Freeview Channel 135, Crosstalk, “The Clinton Emails”. As long as the BBC does not Jam the signal again.

      I must say I am heartily amused by all of this. Only few months ago we had all the sneering lefties on Radio 4 coming out with the Donald Trump – “Comment of the week” and similar contemptuous comments as if he was some sort of unpleasant and guileless slug that had crawled out from under a stone and had been found drowned in a glass of Jenni Murrays – Louis Roederer Crystal.

      Imagine it round at Jennies place – “Ugh Portia he left nasty slug trails everywhere and ended up in my wine – Quite spoiled it. I had to resort to drinking the white lightning I was saving for the Hope not Hate raffle”.

      Dear God – Please can Donald win – if only to wipe the conceited smile from the faces of all these virtuous, smug, conceited bastards !!!!!!!!!

      Lets hope it happens – I for one shall be wishing on a star next week!

        I am just pleased that I am not voting. If Hillary wins, her obvious disregard for the Law and her intent for enhancing the Clinton Foundation means that she would be doing many things that would not be reported. If Trump wins every single thing he does will be reported, but taken out of context, and will be presented as something bad for both the people of the US and the world. Do you remember how the BBC reported on Reagan? Only after he died were we told by the press of his skills as President. Listening to the Today programme this morning, they obviously have not forgiven Boris for Brexit.
        However if Trump wins, I will enjoy the day, and just suffer the next four years.

    This reminds me of BBC maths and its use of the word ‘split’ as in ‘views being’, referring to 99 people on the Graun CiF page appalled about the 10:10 video, to one who was oak with it.

    Frankly no poll is worth a damn looking at history, so let them play their games and play Canute with whatiffery as it simply excavates their credibility grave quicker.

    Maybe a better area for investigation is the trend to getting votes in by various means in advance from those not exposed to full facts or unfolding matters of significance?

    I have money on Trump winning.

    If Clinton wins, Trump will call for a new election in light of the email scandal(s). Especially if it is shown that CNN tipped her off regarding the Debate questions.

    Trump will be very much ahead by Nov 8 despite the polls.

      You can’t have another election in the USA. The timing of elections is set down in the Constitution and cannot be changed (unless there is a Constitutional Amendment). They even had a Presidential Election in 1864, during the Civil War, though I don’t think the Confederate States took part!

      Hopefully it won’t matter, and Trump will win.

    Hopefully Trump will hammer Clinton over her Benghazi treachery and pose the rhetorical question:

    How could you ignore Ambassador Stevens’ repeated calls for more security and still claim that he was your “friend?”

    Naturally the question has to be rhetorical because she will not answer it.

    If this treacherous, greedy woman becomes president it will be a dark day for the US and beyond.

        Anat T. – Interesting article but I heard that the FBI only got a warrant from a judge to investigate Huma Abedin’s emails, not Clinton’s specifically – although no doubt there’ll be many emails back and forth between the two.

        I was dumbfounded to learn, from a judge on Fox News, that if Clinton becomes president and is then indicted she will have the power to pardon herself.

        Somebody pass me a bucket. I think I’m going to be sick.

          From the Telegraph
          ‘By law, she could actually pardon herself and clear the record. A president can pardon any person, including the president.

          Richard Nixon contemplated pardoning himself, but in the end his successor, Gerald Ford, did it for him – something which contributed to Ford’s immense unpopularity, and helped cause him to lose the 1976 election to Jimmy Carter.
          Mrs Clinton would be very ill advised to do so – it is seen as admitting guilt, but evading the consequences, and would damn her in the eyes of an already-sceptical public.’

    Clinton’s speech was bizarre – basically saying do you want your sons to have Donald Trump as a role model. This is coming from a woman who is still married to Bill Clinton! To me this just proved the Democrats have lost all the arguments. Trump has his flaws but at least he is trying (or claiming to be trying) to address serious problems in the USA. Clinton just seems to be making personal insults.

        Not sure who handles her social media PR, but in the comments it starts pretty much as one might expect and goes downhill thereafter.

        Maybe the BBC can dig up some archive of her with Jimmy Savile, as they tried with Mrs. T, who did not ‘do’ social media.

        She lead a country.

    Although anything can happen it is beginning to look as if Trump will win. It will be good that the BBC’s girl loses and the look on Dimbletrot’s face as he announces the results will be pure joy to behold.
    But that aside, I am disappointed that it is the email scandals which will be seen as the cause of Clinton losing. I would like to see it as a victory for those Americans (and Europeans too) who want to see an end to PC and its restrictions on speech and thought; a limit to immigration which should be discussed without being charged with racism; an end to the Green stranglehold on energy, and the beginning of a retaliation against the surrender to Islam. All of these things were in people’s minds before Trump stood and will be important whether he wins or loses. But it would be a good sign is these were identified as the explicit reasons why Trump won

    BBC News at Ten managed to shoehorn PC into two items so clumsily that it just made me laugh.

    A feature on the 80th anniversary of television broadcasting was entirely about sexual inequality in broadcasting. The early TV staff were mostly women, apparently – but of course, this was because of sexism! They only got the jobs because TV was seen as inferior to radio. When TV became more popular, apparently the women got pushed out.

    Then on London news we heard about the closure of New Scotland Yard’s 1970s building. Flashbacks from a woman who worked there – talking about how it was sexist because she was made to buy presents for mens’ wives!

    It’s pure broadcasting by numbers. It’s as if the BBC has a checklist of ‘isshues’ and every item must contain at least one of them, eg Tory Bashing, Islamophobia, Racism, Sexism, Transphobia, Homophobia, Christian bashing, Boris Bashing, Police Cover Up, Thatcher’s Legacy, UKIP bashing, Funny Farage, Funny Trump, etc etc etc

    Even Sky News (UK) are now having to admit that trump might just take the Presidency:

    Presidential poll shows Trump edge into the lead

    Donald Trump has taken the lead in one national US presidential poll that gives him a slender one point advantage over Hillary Clinton.

    The ABC/Washington Post poll put Mr Trump on 46% and Mrs Clinton on 45%.

    But, naturally, they are keen to emphasise that this is ‘just one’ poll, so whatevs.

    I’m loving this US election. Seeing libtards in panic mode is just great. The msm has been consistently wrong – actually, wilfully deceitful – since the start and Trump just keeps making them look like the partisan, biased, compromised fools they are. When even hard-left communist Michael Moore knows Trump is likely to win next week I get the feeling it might be time to break out the Champers.

        The BBC is a “state funded” propaganda media. It can ill afford to rile the PM and the UK government, in its close dealings with the USA, in the coming difficult times and with the Islamic war. There can be no hiding behind the EU now.

        The BBC will be reeled in. A new DG will be appointed to “modernise” the BBC in the Internet age etc.

    The game has moved on from the polls. They always tighten which was why I never believed Clinton’s daft leads. However, unless you win the Electoral College votes, you still lose.

    Looking at the FT analysis it still looks very tight even with the surge.

    https://ig.ft.com/us-elections/polls

    The problem is Florida. Without it Trump is dead. If you are staying up to watch that will be the make or break point. He is substantially behind in College votes. Even if he wins the popular vote, he might lose because he is ‘piling it up’ in safe seats and not picking up enough swing states.

    This is not cheating I’m afraid. George Bush lost the popular vote and still became President and Florida was the key: they gave him the college votes.

    What we need is all polls showing a 4/5% margin for Trump by Sunday if this is going to be safely in the bag.

    BREAKING BOMBSHELL: NYPD Blows Whistle on New Hillary Emails: Money Laundering, Sex Crimes with Children, Child Exploitation, Pay to Play, Perjury

    NYPD detectives and a NYPD Chief, the department’s highest rank under Commissioner, said openly that if the FBI and Justice Department fail to garner timely indictments against Clinton and co- conspirators, NYPD will go public with the damaging emails now in the hands of FBI Director James Comey and many FBI field offices.

    “What’s in the emails is staggering and as a father, it turned my stomach,” the NYPD Chief said. “There is not going to be any Houdini-like escape from what we found. We have copies of everything. We will ship them to Wikileaks or I will personally hold my own press conference if it comes to that.”

    The NYPD Chief said once Comey saw the alarming contents of the emails he was forced to reopen a criminal probe against Clinton.

    “People are going to prison,” he said.
