That's scare quotes.

The term is older than both of us.

So is this you raising skepticism about these specific right wing polls or the concept of "weighting" at all?
I think the take right now that the pollsters are weighing things to either, what the payer wants to hear, or, I'm going to keep things within the margin of error so I can't be called wrong and keep getting paid, are pretty bang on.

Nate Silver recently called them all out.

And I think I prefer Sneer quotes. Feel free to use that.

Suggesting someone shoot the "fake news reporters"

He has lost his mind.

Trump Does UNTHINKABLE ACT **AGAIN** at Closing Speech

He doubles down that people "do not leave his debates early".....yup, dementia is setting in.

I often call them "sarc quotes" as well, because that's often how I use them.

So you aren't against weighting, you just think the current crop of polls are specifically weighting to get answers their clients want to hear and not weighting to try and get better results.
Fair enough.

This is hilarious and a must-watch. The cameraman at a Trump rally goes rogue and fact checks Lying Trump in real time. It's hilarious!!!

GO TO 5:20 to go straight to the fact-checking


Watch Trump REACT to being FACT CHECKED TO HIS FACE

Although I don't agree with much of what Ben Shapiro has to say he has become less annoying as he's maturing.
