4chan and Reddit bombarded debate polls to declare Trump the winner
You may be getting trolled right now without even knowing it.
Donald Trump supporters artificially manipulated the results of online polls to create a false narrative that the Republican nominee won the first presidential debate on Monday night.
The efforts originated from users of the pro-Trump Reddit community r/The_Donald and 4chan messaged boards, which bombarded around 70 polls

and I hope some people here remember when Romney folk were caught gaming the NPR March Madness poll, and 4Chan helped us out.
Here is the graph for those who missed it...

+Rep. Best post on this topic.
By this weekend, it's going to be pretty much universally accepted that Trump really screwed up this debate. (if not sooner) Even Trumpcuckers will start hanging their hats on "next time".
