Sky News host James Morrow says the media criticises Trump as a disaster and gives him no credit for taking up to an hour and a half of questions from a hostile press daily and handling it intelligently. “During the 2016 campaign … we had the media here, in the United States, the ABC, … all say ‘this guy’s a disaster, he says all these ridiculous things, he shoots off the cuff’,” Mr Morrow told Sky News host Paul Murray.
“Every day, I would be listening to the actual press conferences he was holding, the rallies he was holding, he would take 45 minutes, an hour or an hour and a half of questions every single day from a really hostile press, handle it intelligently. “He’s doing the same thing now, he gets no credit for that. “Joe Biden, on the other hand, he had one interview with the rapper woman Cardi B - he won’t go in front of any hostile press at all.

It would be 'naive' to count Trump out | Sky News AustraliaDonald Trump could win re-election if polls in key battleground states are as inaccurate as they were in 2016, according to the United State Studies Centre CEO Simon Jackman.\n\nMr Jackman said the US Studies Centre has commissioned a study that looks at current polling in 11 key battleground states based on past polling errors.\n\nAccording to the findings, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has a 65.1 per cent of winning the November 3 election.\n\nWhile national polls in 2016 were not wildly incorrect, many state polls systematically underestimated Donald Trump's support.\n\nFormer Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton won the popular vote in 2016 but narrowly lost a string of states, most notably in America's rustbelt.\n\nMr Jackman told Sky News while Mr Biden is leading President Trump, there is a chance the polls are incorrect.\n\n'There is one thing that speaks well for the polls this cycle and that is the historically low number of undecided voters,' he said.\n\n'Something that tricked pollsters up (in 2016) was the fact that this far out, about 50 days out, as many as nine to ten per cent were saying they didn't know...a lot of people couldn't make up their mind who to vote for...undecided voters are now at historic lows.\n\n'We say, hey, let's just remember how wrong those polls were in 2016, let's keep that in our backpocket when we interpret these polls, and once you do that, you see a race that is a lot closer than a current naive or face value reading of the current polls might suggest.'
