Exit Polls if you believe them, actually say exactly the opposite. The fragile white male ego was actually the biggest looser for trump. This is based off previous performance ofcourse in aggregate republicans don’t do well with minorities but he’s made progress rather unexpectedly

The last two elections have shown that “everything is made up, and the polls don’t matter”!

I think you're right to be skeptical of polls that show that, e.g. Trump Is Losing Ground With White Voters.

But what then is your evidence for concluding that Biden doesn't appeal to white male voters?

I’m also skeptical of Nate Silver at this point!
