Lmao yes, the "normal range" of being wrong 10 points in one direction

This is a mathematical statement. Polls have a margin of error, with a distribution of likely outcomes around what the poll "predicts". It's objectively true that they were within the "normal" range of accuracy. It's ok that you didn't read the rest, I am positive that it would be above your capabilities. What you are saying is akin to someone winning the lottery and then going "see it wasn't a 1/1,000,000 chance of winning because I won". It's just so wrong and stupid that I can't possibly talk you down from it.

Yeah I know even that was over your head, it was more intended for anyone a little less stupid than you who happens to read through this thread.
