Poll puts Trump down 14 points to Biden in general election showdown (CNN redoes 2016, Trump might as well quit now!)

A new national poll indicates that President Trump’s approval rating is dropping and that he trails Democratic challenger Joe Biden by double digits if November’s presidential election were held today.

According to a CNN survey released on Monday, the president’s approval rating stands at 38 percent, a dive of 7 percentage points from CNN’s previous poll, which was conducted in early May. And Trump’s disapproval rating jumped from 51 percent month ago to 57 percent now.

And the poll shows the former vice president and presumptive Democratic nominee topping the GOP incumbent in the White House by 14 points -- 55 to 41 percent. That’s nearly triple the 5-point margin – 51-46 percent – Biden led by a month ago in CNN polling.

A poll not fit to throw into my garbage.

A total of 1,259 adults, including an oversample of 250 black, non-Hispanic adults, were interviewed by telephone nationwide by live interviewers calling both landline and cell phones. Oversampled black, non-Hispanic respondents have been weighted to represent their proper share of the adult population. Interviews were conducted in English and Spanish. Among the entire sample, 32% described themselves as Democrats, 25% described themselves as Republicans, and 44% described themselves as independents or members of another party.

National polls are irrelevant, as the election is conducted state to state. Polls of registered voters are irrelevant. Likely voters give you a more accurate result.

If Quid Pro Joementia Biden the groping Pedo wins in November America as we knew her is over and will mark the end of the Republic.

At least we beat Benjamin Franklin's guesstimate, so there's that..

It will be every Man, Woman and Child for themselves.

LOL, I seem to recall in 84 some polls showed Mondale leading Reagan, we know how that turned out.

fake polls all designed to depress Trump supporters...

but also more importantly to stop Trump donations and force the president to spend big money early in the cycle.

Just out of common sense it is dumb. CNN is obsessed with Trump. It’s all Trump all the time. They need help.

There used to be something frequently quoted on FR that had to do with voters not wanting to reveal their voting preferences. It was “the Bradley Effect”. It had to do with a black candidate (Bradley) that people claimed they would vote for because they did not want to appear to be “rascist”; but when the election happened, they voted for the other guy. In a time in which people are threatened with violence for their “silence”, and are assumed to be white supremacists if they say they are supporting Trump, I think the Bradley effect is probably stronger than ever.

It’s laughable and will be proven to be an extreme outlier by other more credible polling organizations!

The Democrats are gonna keep Biden under wraps the entire campaign. Luckily for them the enemedia will run their propaganda against Trump 24/7, and they have their vote fraud operation in place. I don’t expect any debates and Slow Joe’s campaign team will limit his appearances. The idiots are crowing about their poll and are already fantasizing the end of Trump. These people never learn, do they?

Even if true, let a few major cities defund the police and Trump kicks ass in the polls again.

They seem to forget polls this early mean absolutely nothing even when they are accurate. In August of 1988 Mike Dukakis was ahead of George H.W. Bush by 18 points, a record at the time. Just three months later Bush beat Dukakis in a landslide. The fact of the matter is the vast majority of voters don't make up their minds until the final month of the campaign.

Hope for the best, expect the worst and you won’t be disappointed.

I’ll get back to you on my faith in the Electorate the day after the November Election. All those willingly ignorant Criminals and SJW’s roaming the Streets Vote, some more than once.

He could boost his numbers by declaring BLM and antifa terrorist groups (which they are).
