3:29Now PlayingDonald Trump’s campaign won’t concede he’s losing in the polls right now. According to his campaign, he’s actually winning. Cenk Uygur and John Iadarola, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"Taking a page out of last week's "says who" denial playbook, Donald Trump's newly appointed campaign manager Kellyanne Conway is dismissing near-universal polls that show the Republican presidential candidate is lagging far behind his rival Hillary Clinton.
Conway's logic, which she explained in an interview with the United Kingdom's Channel 4 on Tuesday, relies heavily on supporters she described as "undercover voters" who will inevitably break their silence and vote for Trump this November. These voters, Conway reasoned, will click for Trump in online polls but are currently reluctant to admit their political leanings to pollsters. So why won't they speak up?
"It's become socially desirable, especially if you're a college educated person in the United States of America, to say that you're against Donald Trump," Conway said. "The hidden Trump vote is a very significant proposition."
