On X, political commentator Ed Krassenstein, a frequent Trump critic, commented on the change of opinion about polling numbers among the former president’s supporters.

“MAGA is breaking down. They are back to calling the polls fake just because they don’t reflect what they want them to say,” Krassenstein wrote. “It’s funny how they touted the polls when Trump was up.”

      The polls were correct in that Clinton won the popular vote. They were wrong on the electoral college outcome, but that came down to several states with razor thin margins being decided well under any margin of error for polls.

      A lot of people believed they were wrong. They were pretty damn right, but humans suck at statistics. Hence the reason Vegas exists as a tourist destination.
