All accusations have failed.

Not really, Trump is sitting at roughly 40ish percent approval (Sauce: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/trump-approval-ratings/)) , and it reflects poorly on the Republican party. If the (((Media))) rallies enough (((Democratic))) support, they could swing (((the house or the senate))) to the left and Trump is basically finished, even if none of the allegations stick.

Polls are samplings from a small pool of people.

Statistically irrelevant. A sample of adequate size and representation can reasonably accurately reflect the population. Using multiple samples from different organizations is a reasonable reflection of the population. You can argue that a single poll is biased, but saying all polling is biased against your desired outcomes is intellectually dishonest.

Of those people who polled they can cherry pick results from a democratic audience or paid shills.

Which is why you use multiple sources, including those from conservative polling bodies. If polling is sufficently biased to not reflect the population, it is no longer useful for making strategic decisions. Even if you strictly look at conservative-leaning polling bodies, less than half of Americans approve of Trump.

The media then uses that information to fit their narrative. We all know that most of the media has a liberal bias. They are for profit organizations. They present their audience with information they prefer to hear.

Long story short, polls are not representative of what his approval rating literally is. Provided that 95%~ of all media is negatively biased towards President Trump (proven by a Harvard study) it's unreasonable to even consider polls.

Ignoring the tactics your enemies are using to undermine your position is a poor strategy. It doesn't matter what exactly Trump's approval rating actually is: if the Dems flip the house or the senate, Trump hits the end of his functional presidency, and polls are one of the tools in (((their))) arsenal.

Don't forget the election. Polls failed epically to accurately gauge the pulse of America.

Also incorrect: Trump won well within the margin of error for state polling.
