Nolte: Polls Show Donald Trump Better Positioned than DeSantis to Beat Biden
Breitbart ^ | 1 Sep 2023 | John Nolte

Posted on 09/14/2023 11:00:50 AM PDT by SoConPubbie

In the RealClearPolitics (RCP) poll of polls, former President Donald Trump is in a much better position than Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) to beat President Joe Biden.

This fact annihilates one of the key arguments against Trump: the idea he has no chance of winning the 2024 general presidential election.

In the RCP poll of polls, Biden tops Trump nationally by less than a single percentage point. Currently, His Fraudulency earns 44.6 percent support compared to Trump’s 43.8 percent.

What’s more —and this is important — Trump is in better shape against Biden than he ever was during the 2020 election. Throughout that entire election, Biden’s lead never dropped below four points.

Equally important is the fact that throughout the 2016 campaign, former first lady Hillary Clinton had a 3.2-point poll lead over Trump on Election Day and beat Trump by 2.1 points in the national popular vote but still lost the election. Hillary maintained a steady three- to four-point lead over Trump throughout that campaign, except for three brief moments.

DeSantis is losing to Biden by 4.7 points in the RCP poll of national polls. He’s doing almost four points worse against Biden than Trump.

Since late July, DeSantis has not led Biden in a single national poll. Slow Joe has maintained a steady lead from four to six points in the last eight polls.

In the last eight polls, Trump has led Biden in three.

If you believe the polls, as of right now, Trump is in a much, much better position to win the general election than DeSantis.

So if you care about beating Joe Biden and the future of our country, this is good news because, as of today, Trump is walking away with the GOP nomination. Nationally, he’s 40.1 points ahead of second place DeSantis (53.6 percent to 13.5 percent).

You love your polls until you don’t. How about a pause on them until the first votes FOUR MONTHS FROM NOW?

But CNN said Nikki Haley was the best candidate the GOP could put up to beat Biden!

Tell you what, you, and the rest of the crap DeSanctimonious Online Influencers stop with the lying, and the twisting the truth of President Trumps record, and all the other dishonest garbage you post, and I'll agree to do that.

Name a lie that you see posted. Seriously, if you list all of the Trump-related articles by only over 24-hours and all of DeSantis, you'll see that few negative posted about Trump but you and others post a continuous stream of negative BS about DeSantis. I'll likely have time to make a list later this week and I'll share it.

Anyway, what lie about Trump was posted by a DeSantis supporter in the past 24 hours? I've sure haven't seen one.

Trump is ahead by 0.4 in the RCP National Average which includes a pollster whose last 2020 poll overestimated Biden by 7.5; another pollster by 6.5; two pollsters by 5.5.

Adjust for this hackery, and Trump's lead is now a clear 3-4 points!

The polls could show 100% of the voters in favor of Trump, and the fraudulent election machines and ballots will still show Traitorjoe as the winner. And that will be supported by corrupt election officials and judges, and Demonicrat and RINOcrat state officials.

“Take the guns first, go through due process second,” Trump said.

Is that a lie? Oh let me guess. I took that comment out of context! Yeah that's it! Just give Trump another chance! He didn't mean to talk like a vile gun-grabber! He just meant that about the crazy people! LOL.

I’d be happier if we could get them to drop the Trump DeSantis issue and concentrate on forcing their party to rid itself of Uni Party Rinos like Kevin Mccarthy. Would take some doing because too many GOP rank and file would have to actually give a shit about something other than the party status quo.

Side note with a little boost; Romney is gone! Now just a stable of elite Uni Party Rinos to go.

The problem with that sentiment is that your analysis is off-base where DeSantis is concerned.

He's not MAGA, he's not even MAGA-Lite.

He got into bed with the Bushes, John Bolton, Romney et. all, Globalists, GOP-E, Neo-Cons and Never-Trumpers.

He is not what you are purporting him to be.

He is a Globalist / NeoCon Trojan Horse.

He beat Biden once before. Why wouldn’t he beat him a second time?

I see Reno85919 is at it again, telling others to take a break, and not post articles, while he/she/it spams the site with pro-DeSantis crap. Reno85919, does like to censor people.

"He got into bed with the Bushes, John Bolton, Romney et. all, Globalists, GOP-E, Neo-Cons and Never-Trumpers."

No wonder he had the Sunshine Laws changed so his, and his family's past and future travel records would not be open to scrutiny of any kind.

They initially claimed the change in the law was for security purposes, but since the guy walks around all the time in apparel with his name on it, that puts that lie to rest.

You are 1000% correct about Ron D. I think my overall point was made awkwardly. In addition to all Ron is, would you agree or disagree that he is a useful deflection from GOP problems, especially when thrown against Trump, the elites biggest threat?

My logic for this today arrives from the news that Romney is retiring, and Matt Goetz comments on the House Floor about McCarthy’s leadership of promise much do nothing unless forced.

There are very deep problems in the GOP yet the arguments remain Trump v DeSantis at least here on FR. Realistically the nomination has been over since the day Trump announced. So why would big money elites push this candidate (Ron) to continue fighting it out if not to deflect from something more egregious they don’t want discussed?

Feedback appreciated because I feel my focus will benefit from other respected points of view.
