Polls show Democrats are right to panic about Biden

Polling averages aggregated by FiveThirtyEight and RealClearPolitics show Trump surged and Biden dipped significantly in national polls after the June 27 debate. The averages put Biden a few points behind Trump, which is not by any means insurmountable. But Biden should be trouncing Trump, a corrupt aspiring autocrat, one of the most unpopular people to ever run for presidential office and a man recently convicted of 34 felony counts and found liable for sexual abuse. Around this time in their 2020 match-up, Biden was beating Trump by almost 10 points. It s also important to remember that in 2016 and 2020 Trump outperformed the polls. That he s consistently leading Biden this election cycle is alarming.

Pollsters at the Cook Political report changed the status of three battleground states from toss-ups to lean Republican after the debate. And according to the combined data of the New York Times/Sienna College polls, Biden is seeing an extraordinary dip Trump now has not just his biggest lead over Biden in this election cycle, but his largest lead over a Democrat since his 2016 White House bid. New York Times chief political correspondent and poll guru Nate Cohn told The New Yorker in a recent interview, There are no precedents in recent memory for Presidents to have approval ratings like Biden s who then go on to win re-election.

It is rather remarkable that it’s a national crisis that Trump might win and Biden lose, worthy of just about any machination now. Still, I do think the Dems would have a much better chance of winning with a young, fresh person whose absolute inappropriateness for the job has yet to be proven. They have lots of those, as do the Republicans tbf.
