Donald Trump’s Campaign Manager Insists “Undercover Trump Voters” Will Defy the Polls

Donald Trump offered a frank assessment of his campaign’s strategy for the general election, saying in an interview that “I’m finding that I do better with voters, do better in the polls, when I’m on message”. “It’s because it’s become socially desirable, if you’re a college educated person in the United States of America, to say that you’re against Donald Trump”, she said.

The interviewer asked whether Conway and her staff had been able to been able to “put a number” on this hidden Trump vote. “Can He Really Win?”, that the US media intentionally ignores this “hidden Trump vote”.

“What do you think that is?”

“Oh, come on”, Frei interjected. “It’s a project we’re doing internally”, she said. “I call it the undercover Trump voter, but it’s real”, she said.

Even better news for Trump supporters, Conway said in an interview Monday with Channel 4 in London that Trump is doing much better when factoring in what she referred to as the “hidden Trump vote”.

True to Trump form, Conway is attempting to propel her boss’s reputation forward in the polls by making cryptic, freakish statements.

But Trump also suggested that he’s reluctant to abandon the unconventional approach that sparked his rise past year. It was a reference to the vote by the United Kingdom to leave the European Union – the result of a referendum that many observers expected to go the other way but which polling showed to be close. That margin remains steady at 5.3 points when only online polls are counted.

Nigel Farage, a leader of the Brexit movement, told Sky News that he would appear on stage with Trump on Wednesday.

Traditionally, it’s unusual to admit people are ashamed to say they support your candidate.
