2016, left-wing Moore predicted that Trump would take the election, and back in August, warned he could win reelection because Trump's supporters were so enthusiastic.
On Thursday, Moore told Hill.TV's Rising hosts that Democrats and Biden supporters shouldn't take polls showing the former Vice President's lead in various states without a grain of salt.
'Don’t believe these polls, first of all,' Moore started.
'Second of all, the Trump vote is always being undercounted. Pollsters, when they actually call a real Trump voter, the Trump voter’s very suspicious of the "Deep State" calling them and asking them who they’re voting for.'

He added that the polls are 'all fake news to them, remember. It’s not an accurate count.'
WILL BIDEN’S DEBATE DEMANDS TURN THE TIDE OR DROWN HIS CHANCES?
Instead of taking the Biden poll results at face value, Moore said that it would probably be more accurate - although 'not scientific' - to cut those results in half to get Biden's actual lead.
'Whatever they’re saying the Biden lead is, cut it in half, right now, in your head. Cut it in half, and now you’re within the four-point margin of error,' Moore said.

'That’s how close this is. That’s how desperately close this is,' he warned.
Moore also pointed to not discounting Trump's support in light of the gains he has made in recent months.
In July, Moore said, polls had shown Biden was ahead in Michigan by 16 points, but now Trump has cut that margin in half.
Moore said that although everyone wants him to predict the winner of the election again, he doesn't know what's going to happen.
But, Moore said, Trump 'thinks he's going to win and I know he's an evil genius. And he's smarter than all of us and I know people hate to hear that, but I'm sorry. To win the White House by losing the election? That's genius.'

As for why people shouldn't assume that Biden has the election in the bag based on the poll results, Moore pointed to the fact that Trump pulled off a win despite what pollsters said in 2016.
'He's already done it, he's already fooled everybody,' Moore said. 'Everybody must act right now as if this could happen again. And if it does happen again, game over.'
CAPITOL RECOGNITION: A TRUE AMERICAN EVANGELIST EARNS BIG HONOR...
In 2016, months of national polls confidently showed Hillary Clinton ahead, and set many Americans up for a shock on Election Night. Two pollsters who weren’t blindsided by this are Arie Kapteyn and Robert Cahaly. Kapteyn, a Dutch economist who leads the USC’s Dornsife Center for Economic and Social Research, oversaw the USC/Los Angeles Times poll that gave Trump a 3-point lead heading into election day—which, Kapteyn notes, was wrong: Clinton won the popular vote by 2 points. Cahaly, a Republican pollster with the Trafalgar Group, had pre election surveys that showed Trump nudging out Clinton in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Florida and North Carolina—all of which he won.
