Common questions

Is Rich Baris THE PEOPLE'S PUNDIT left or right?
Rich Baris is the director of Big Data Poll and host of "Inside the Numbers," and he sits in the pro-Trump data ecosystem — his work circulates through Real America's Voice, Newsmax, Steve Bannon's orbit, and Tucker Carlson rather than legacy polling circles. He founded People's Pundit Daily in 2013 and built his brand on bucking the polling consensus, correctly projecting Trump's 2016 win at 306 electoral votes and being named the most accurate national pollster of 2024 by the poll-tracker PollWatch. He describes his outlook as defending American traditionalism and conservative principles against progressive arguments. Notably, in 2026 he has been publicly warning his own side, telling Republicans "MAGA has shrunk," that Trump's approval numbers are weak, and that the GOP risks heavy losses in the 2026 midterms without Trump on the ballot — warnings that drew wide coverage because they came from a pollster aligned with Trump's movement.
