The narratives from Trump and his tribe are that any poll showing Harris-Walz in front are fake polls and they’ve changed the methodology etc etc.

I know polls are not indicative of final results, but I remember the rise of the right-wing “Unspun Polls” (probably either 2008 or 2012 - not sure). That exercise in flat-out denial didn’t turn out so well.
