A North Carolina congressman said he thinks President Donald Trump will win reelection “in a landside” because of a growing number of people who quietly support him, WECT reported.
Rep. David Rouzer, R-N.C., made the comment on Thursday in Wilmington while speaking to his supporters.
He said he does not fully trust the corporate media’s polls that show Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden holding a significant national lead over Trump.
“I know from 2016 he [Trump] never led in a poll, at least not one that I recall. He was always down two or three [points], and he wins the state by two-point-eight percent, three percent,” Rep. Rouzer said, referencing Trump’s win in North Carolina.
He said the polling inaccuracies that predicted former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s victory in the 2016 presidential election may be even more exaggerated in 2020.
“There was about a three to four underpoll for Trump in 2016,” he said. “I think you can double that in 2020. The reason I think you can double that is I think there are a lot of people that quite honestly, they don’t want to tell the pollsters which way they are going to vote for president.”
Rouzer said Biden is “a bridge to socialism in America,” which is revealed in the fact that radical socialists, including Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt, and Rep. Alexandria Cortez, D-N.Y., support him.
Some people in the crowd mentioned that Biden has received more bipartisan support than Trump.
“I’m looking at everybody that supports him at the national level, AOC (Oscasio-Cortez) and the radical left, I’m looking at Bernie Sanders, and the input they’ve had on his campaign already from a substance and policy standpoint,” Rouzer said.
He said Democrats want to defund the police, which will lead to “mob rule.”
“Joe Biden may say ‘no, that’s not what I want to do!’, but the fact of the matter is the policies that are going to be put in place are going to lead right to that point,” he said.
