Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid interrupted a CNN reporter during an interview on Friday to advise that his network’s election polls, the latest of which showed Donald Trump in the lead, are not to be trusted.
“They’re tightening because people like the ones you work for get these cheap polls that they can just keep making news on,” Reid said of the polls after being told Trump is ahead in Ohio, Florida and Nevada. Reid added that Trump “will never be elected president of the United States,” despite leading Hillary Clinton 43-41 percent in a CNN/ORC poll released Thursday.
“All these polls are a joke. A joke,” Reid said.
When asked why Clinton was struggling, Reid rejected the polls again.
“You listen to me. You keep going back to your numbers,” Reid said. “Your numbers are not fair, they’re not reliable.”
He said Clinton is “doing an excellent job.”
