Michael Moore calls polls showing Joe Biden ahead of Trump 'inaccurate', Internet says he's 'right for once'

'Whatever they're saying the Biden lead is, cut it in half, right now, in your head,' said the filmmaker

Filmmaker Michael Moore does not believe polls that show Joe Biden ahead of President Donald Trump ahead of the upcoming elections. Moore said he did not buy that Joe Biden's campaign had a big lead over Donald Trump and that the polls were wrong and not accurate. He also believes that it is very likely that it will be exploited by the Republican's 'evil genius' on Election Day. 

While making an appearance on The Hill TV's 'Rising', Moore had called it 'awful news' that Biden was ahead of Trump by around seven points in his home state of Michigan and explained how Trump had managed to cut Biden's lead 'in half', citing another poll which showed the Democratic nominee around '16 points ahead'. 

Moore said, "Trump has tightened virtually every one of these swing states to the point where- what are they saying this morning?... 'Biden's five points ahead in Wisconsin... maybe three points ahead in Florida, two points ahead in Arizona'... Listen, don't believe these polls." 

"The Trump vote is always being undercounted. Pollsters- when they actually call the Trump voter, the Trump voter is very suspicious of the 'Deep State' calling them and asking them who they're voting for," Moore added. 

He said that polls are 'fake news' to Trump supporter. "So it is not an accurate count. I think the safe thing to do, this is not scientific... whatever they're saying the Biden lead is, cut it in half, right now, in your head. Cut it in half, and now you're within the four-point margin of error. That's how close this is! That's how desperately close this is!" Moore revealed. 

He also said that Trump is an 'evil genius' for his ability to win the election. Earlier back in August, he had warned Democrats about the enthusiasm gap between the Biden base and the Trump base. "I’m warning you almost 10 weeks in advance. The enthusiasm level for the 60 million in Trump’s base is OFF THE CHARTS! For Joe, not so much," he had written on Facebook. 

"Don’t leave it to the Democrats to get rid of Trump. YOU have to get rid of Trump. WE have to wake up every day for the next 67 days and make sure each of us are going to get a hundred people out to vote. ACT NOW!" his post added. Many social media users are in agreement with Moore's comments on the polls. One such user shared, "Wow! He’s right about something for once!" Another added, "I don't either. I actually think that Trump is going to try to tamper with election results. He will try not to respect the rules in order to win. Hope Repubblicans will have a coscience and morality and will stop him." 

"I can't stand moore from every angle, but I do agree with him on the Pseudo Poll numbers. This Brainwashing mechanism the media is using to discourage rep and raise the spirits of Dem is dangerous," commented another user. Yet another user chimed in, "For once I wholeheartedly agree with M. Moore, and in reality is not even a question of believing or not believing, the polls for various reasons are not reflecting the reality, in fact I said weeks ago that many folks do not admit to voting for Trump, but would do so for sure!"
