Well, there is reason to hope that President Donald J. Trump will be re-elected after all. The mainstream media and Never Trump crowd have pretty much written President Trump’s political obituary. They believe that powerhouse Joe Biden (insert eye roll here) has this one in the bag.
Not so fast…
Just out is the daily Rasmussen Reports presidential approval rating for Trump at 51%.
Notably, said Rasmussen, at this stage of his presidency, former President Barack Obama had a 44% approval rating.
Add to that new polling from Economist/YouGov that shows the president’s supporters far more enthusiastic about him, and voting for him, than those of Biden’s.
When asked, “How do you feel about the presidential candidates listed below?” 40% of Biden’s supporters said “enthusiastic” compared to 68% of Trump’s supporters.
These two polls are a reminder that most of the polls showing Joe Biden running away with it are meaningless. The campaign has yet to begin, with Joe Biden still in hiding. At some point, that is going to hurt him with the precious independent voters. This is especially true if he bails on the debates, like many in the media are encouraging him to do. Contrary to their belief, he is not owed the presidency. He must earn it and they know he is not mentally capable at this point.
We must also never forget that Hillary Clinton had it in the bag (she still thinks that). These polls are used to dispirit Republicans and Trump supporters and to depress turnout.
That is NOT going to happen.
