Donald Trump is facing the prospect of a landslide loss
CNN ^ | June 25,2020 | Chris Cillizza

(CNN)A half dozen new swing-state polls released Thursday morning suggest that not only would President Donald Trump lose if the election were held today, he would lose in a landslide.

The surveys, conducted by The New York Times and Siena College, show Trump trailing former Vice President Joe Biden by double digits in Michigan (Biden +11), Wisconsin (Biden +11) and Pennsylvania (Biden+ 10) and by mid-single digits in North Carolina (Biden +9), Arizona (Biden +7) and Florida (Biden +6).

Trump won every one of those states in the 2016 election. Switch them from red to blue and you can quickly see just how bad hings look for Trump at the moment.

And, thanks to CNN's handy dandy "Road to 270" interactive electoral maps, we can do just that! Give Biden those six states -- Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Arizona and Florida -- and keep the rest of the 2020 map just as it was in 2016, and the Democratic nominee has 333 electoral votes to just 205 for Trump. That would be a larger Electoral College margin than President Barack Obama won with in his 2012 reelection.

But even that doesn't capture how dark things could get for Trump. Consider: * A Quinnipiac University poll in Ohio released Wednesday showed Biden at 46% to Trump's 45%. (A Fox News poll released in early June showed Biden at 47% to Trump's 45%). If Ohio went to Biden, he would be at 351 electoral votes. * A Des Moines Register poll earlier this month put Trump at 44% and Biden at 43% in Iowa. Give Biden Iowa and he's at 357 electoral votes.

I haven’t seen the news today. Usually I can watch Fox live on You Tube but so far today, no live channels. Oh, well.

I think a lot of people are afraid to openly express support for President Trump, in this day and age of intimidation.

How about you worry about Canada, and let us worry about the US.

Rasmussen gas POTUS approval backup to 47% and Rasmussen’s history had Obama at 44% at this point in his 1st term. I think that you know once POTUS starts getting out there more and talking more and campaigning more it will be a win

Sure the people rioting and the people who support the rioters don’t care who’s running against President tr9ump they were just want him out but do you honestly think the average voter Ohio or Florida doesn’t wanna hear what by Biden has to say? Eventually Biden is going to have to come out and campaign to gwt people to vote FOR him. You only get a certain hard core percentage that will vote against the other guy regardless, but that middle ground voter, you need to get those people to vote for you.

Yes, sounds like what they were saying in late October 2016. I wonder if they never learned what went wrong.

Msnbc reported the exact same story in 2016.

Lol, go for it. My kids only saw the inside of a public school when they took their SATs. Too bad I’m not a billionaire, but even if I were, I lack the impulse to try and make the world a better place. I’ve already seen the damage that does.

The only poll showing the Democrat Nominee (I’m not convinced that it will be Biden) winning, is one which openly factors in the massive democrat vote fraud that WILL occur, nationwide this time, rather than just mostly in key targeted precincts like is has for the past few decades.

Uh sure. Biden is also within the margin of error in Texas.
