No matter how beleaguered President Biden has become, Democrats have held true to the belief that he could defeat former President Trump. A recent poll suggests otherwise.
Let’s trot out all the usual caveats: It’s way early, polls are brief snapshots, so much can change between now and next year’s election.
Biden racked up plenty of achievements in his first two years, including bipartisan laws on infrastructure, computer chips and helping veterans in poor health. Unemployment is at a 50-year low, and he’s led the global effort to defend Ukraine against Russian brutality. So what explains such abysmal numbers?
We can debate the extent of his decline – Biden has done lots of foreign travel, including that arduous trip to Kyiv – but the 80-year-old president has clearly lost a few steps. Former President Donald Trump speaks at a campaign rally on April 27, 2023, in Manchester, New Hampshire.Some 44% of voting-age adults say they would definitely or probably vote for the indicted former president in 2024, while 38% would definitely or probably vote for Biden. The firewall is gone. It doesn’t matter if those numbers change or the poll turns out to be an outlier.
