He is rising in the polls and Biden dodged the Superbowl because he is declining rapidly.

Righto, exit polls are meaningless and often wrong but the polls are important and show what's happening.

 

Why don't you just say what you mean: I have an opinion and will ignore contradictory facts.

Trump and his allies are making the mistake of at least outwardly believing that Haley thinks any differently. She is a never trumper and will spoil his election by doing a ross perot or a jill stein.

A never trumper that worked for the trump administration. Wow!

She is certainly a conflicted individual.

Look at the polls on Biden v Trump over the last 6 months. If you want to ignore them and just pick 1 exit poll good for you.  You are saying "I hate Trump so I will cherry pick alternate polls"

Here is the trend. Jan 2023 Trump had no hope. Now he's well ahead

I am not picking any polls, I ignore general polls this far ahead of time. But this is a very specific one on a very specific issue, imo worth mentioning.

I am not American but if Trump is elected to president again  I pity our world.  He is nothing but a megalomaniac. Biden is to old so please US voters show some sense.

Clear downward trend for Biden. His age means it is likely to get worse. An 82yo is not smarter than an 81yo.

Polls in 2016 said Hillary was a cert 😄

 

Do polls predict the popular vote or the electoral college outcome?

Polls close to date were undecided.

Which translates into about 10% of republican electors. A deal killer for Trump's chances. It's why MAGA are panicking about her.

Panic, I am sure Trumps chances are good in the primaries, and the only panic is with the democrats, and panic lady Haley should be toast after she's annihilated in super Tuesday even with all her vast democratic financial support.

 

I can sure see MAGA panicking when they lead by >59%. LOL You got it all wrong, again, no surprise there.

Despite all this, however, nationwide polling was not far off from the actual popular vote result, and in fact very few states had results that deviated from the margin of error in the polling average. In a FiveThirtyEight article, Nate Silver defended the performance of the polls in 2016 as historically average, and argued that "Media organizations need to do a better job of informing their readers about the uncertainties associated with polling".

Nope.

 

She will soon drop out and disappear.

 

In the unlikely event she ran as a third party candidate, it would be a big win for Trump, since her voters otherwise would vote for Biden.

I don't think she has any delusions that he would pick a non white woman as a running mate, especially one who has caused him all this angst. The question is does she hate Trump more than her party loyalty?

The election is at the end of the year and exit polls are often wrong. The choice is 82-86yo or Trump with less wars, less border chaos. Easy decision.

The choice will be Biden or a psychopath with incipient Alzheimers  who failed to fix the border last time around.

 

Easy choice.

You're assuming that her voters are disaffected dems and not largely comprised of republicans who don't like trump. I can't see it.
