MAGA faithful blow off polls in Michigan, insist Trumps got it made.
Trumps base is digging in.
At his rally in Potterville, Michigan, on Thursday, former President Donald Trump told the crowd that he was leading in the polls by a lot and that recent polling was rigged. | Jamie Kelter Davis for POLITICO

POTTERVILLE, Michigan Inside a hulking steel warehouse where Donald Trump rallied his supporters on Thursday, the former presidents backers sweltered in the heat and gave no oxygen, either, to the idea that their candidate arrived in this battleground state weakened by Kamala Harris ascent.
None said they believed recent polling showing Trump slipping behind Harris here. Nor could they stomach the latest Fox News polling showing that, entering the crucial post-Labor Day stretch of the campaign, the vice president had improved her position over President Joe Biden against Trump in Arizona, Georgia, Nevada and North Carolina.
And none could envision a world where they wake up on Nov. 6 and Trump is not the winner; if he isnt, they say, Harris has either cheated or the election has been rigged.
The media would tell you that Harris is winning, but the heart of America will tell you that Trumps got it made, said Kirk Deatrick, who said he stopped trusting Fox News when the network parted ways with Tucker Carlson.
He added of Democrats, I think if they dont cheat, I think hell win by a huge amount, predicting an 80-20 margin of victory for Trump if it was a fair and honest election, and illegal people dont vote and they dont use cheating.
