'No one knows anything': Internet befuddled by post-debate poll showing Biden bump

Raw Story  

A new poll showing the disastrous Atlanta debate appears to have helped — or at least, not harmed — President Joe Biden's chances, and the internet laughed as everyone rallied around the notion it seems no one knows anything anymore. The non-partisan group Political Polls shared a new general election poll Friday afternoon with a curious finding: Biden led Trump 45 percent to 44 percent post-debate. The poll even caught the attention of MSNBC host Chris Hayes, who quipped: "shrug emoji no one knows anything." Reactions ranged from some theorizing the poll was "rigged," to others flatly saying many would "rather vote for a rock before they vote for Trump."
