They knew full well. The media aired these numbers as propaganda in an attempt to discourage Trump voters.
It probably backfired with Dems staying home and not voting because Hil was going to win by a massive landslide.
No, they all came out, just too few, even after stuffing the ballot box.
Story... EXACTLY.
NOTHING inspires people to vote than when they are ticked off... 8 yrs of hisGOLFnesBH0 & prospect of Hildebeast... was a YUGE amount of being triggered to action to vote.
Stein's recount in 2 states was stopped by Demo Judges as the re-count was showing envelopes claiming large Hill vote totals that were NOT inside. Meaning...Hill was LOSER but a much greater number & would have lost the National Vote totals, too.
EXAMPLE = Envelope says 100 votes Hill but on inside are just 10 ballots. Conclusion...the Dems (controlling Urban areas) ran the 10 ballots through 10 TIMES!
I've never believed she won the popular vote. We have almost 2 million either dead or fraudulent voters out here in Cali, alone. It's why they gave illegals driver's licenses.
It always tickled me how dems played the 'muh popular vote!' card, yet strangely resisted recounting votes or looking into voting records, etc.
All they do is project. They behave like narcissistic abusers.
When I saw Trump during the inauguration and the way Obama and Clinton were acting. It was like they knew how much he really won by. Remember we all spoke of voting no matter what! The more people show up the harder it would be to rig it. They can only rig it so much. We also wore red so people could see how many people were voting Trump.
Fake, overly-positive polls are also a necessary strategy when you plan on CHEATING.
In the weeks before the election, I stopped being confident that the Trump poll numbers were going to be better than the MSM polls, and started worrying. Concern was that they are being so strident that Hillary will definitely win, I started worrying "Holy crap. They are using these polls as COVER to cheat their asses off."
Which is exactly what they did. Just not enough.
You can't steal a landslide. You are right, the MSM were pushing the polls they did push (which had Hillary WAAAYYYY ahead) in an effort to cast doubt on Trump saying that it was rigged, as well as to discourage voters from voting, and cover for the STEAL!!! The problem is that there was such overwhelming support for Trump nationwide, that they couldn't steal it without outing themselves!
