MOMENTUM: TRUMP

Rapid Response

“AN ABSOLUTE DISASTER.”

That’s how the latest round of awful polling for Crooked Joe Biden is being described.

Amid “a yearning for change and discontent over the economy,” a fresh battleground poll from The New York Times/Siena College has President Trump maintaining his lead in nearly all the crucial swing states.

Some key nuggets among battleground voters:

  • 61% disapprove of Biden’s overall job performance.
  • The top issue, by far, is the economy — of which just 2-in-10 rate favorably under Biden.
    • Battleground voters trust President Trump over Biden to do a better job on the economy by a whopping 22-point margin.
  • President Trump’s “strength among young and nonwhite voters has … upended the electoral map.”
  • President Trump and Biden are TIED among 18-to-29-year-olds and Hispanic voters.
  • A plurality believe President Trump will bring “good changes to the country.”
  • Nearly half — a plurality  — say President Trump will not be able to get a “fair and impartial trial” in the corrupt Democrats’ witch hunt.

The poll echoes findings from the Financial Times, which shows 80% of voters say high prices remain “one of their biggest financial challenges” — while half believe Biden’s policies have hurt the economy.

It’s no wonder Crooked Joe Biden’s campaign is in absolute freefall as enthusiasm for President Trump remains sky-high.
