President Donald Trump will get crushed by any Democrat running against him in the 2020 presidential election, a poll released Thursday indicated. Asked whether they would vote for Trump or a hypothetical Democratic candidate in the next election, just 36 percent in the Politico/Morning Consult poll said they would vote to give the president a second term. That compared with 46 percent who indicated they would vote for Trump’s Democratic opponent, whoever that may be. A further 18 percent said they remained undecided.

The poll, conducted on the eve of the anniversary of the 2016 election, offers further bad news for Trump: Eight percent of those who voted for him a year ago said they would support a Democrat in 2020. In contrast, three percent of those who voted for Hillary Clinton in November 2016 said they would switch to casting their ballot for Trump come the next vote for president.
Indeed, Democrats appear to be more steadfast in backing someone from their own party than Republicans when it comes to Trump. Eighty-four percent of Democrats said they would vote for the candidate from their own party in 2020, compared with 74 percent who said they would support the current Republican president....

in the words of John Kerrry(who served in Viet Nam) I say bring it on!
Gotta be careful here. Trump won partly because a great deal of R’s and conservatives either believed the polls or at least were concerned to some degree. It kept us energized, engaged and focused.
It’s not hard to beat someone without naming an opponent. Put a name to it and let’s see what polls show.
Yeah...the “Media” writing the “Play” just as they want it to be played out. Everyone should read Atkisson’s “SMEAR”...it is SO obvious the media is running the show.
His opponents right now are the Republican Senators.
Total fraud. No pollster would ask if anything/one has their “shit together”. Completely unprofessional.
Hypothetical opponent polls are notoriously useless.
He may as well quit now.
What makes them think Trump will run again after losing so badly to Hillary last year?
Well, in that case I’ll be giving my Ruth Bader Ginsburg Voodoo Doll a few more Pins to play with.
There’s a 98% chance this poll is wrong.
In early 1982, polls showed Ted Kennedy would “crush” Ronald Reagan.
That’s why presidents have four year terms.
...but there's only a 10% chance of that...
Also, 89.3% of all statistics - and polls - are made up on the spot.
I also think Trump got a lot of “NOT HER” votes. That could change
Now, where have we heard this before?
Funny enough, the Politico/Morning Consult poll of 11/03/2016 had Hillary leading Trump by just three points, while the poll of 10/03/2016 had her leading by six points.
More TOTAL BS!!!
Haha I’m sure others have beat me to it...but right up until the actual voting everyone was talking about how Clinton was going to smash Trump.
