Polls: Trump approval drops amid George Floyd protests, coronavirus

The president’s halting handling of the coronavirus and controversial response to protests over the death of George Floyd have caused his job approval rating to fall and former Vice President Joe Biden to surge in the 2020 presidential race, four new national polls show.

Trump hires pollster who says CNN skewed survey for low approval rating

WASHINGTON — President Trump on Monday hired a pollster to scrutinize a CNN poll that pegged him at an approval rating of just 38 percent in the wake of historic civil unrest, his worst since…

Now proceed to criticize the source.
 
Trump is down around 10 in all the polls today, so the CNN poll isn’t that big of an outlier. He had a hole to climb out of, but 5 months is an eternity to improve (or get worse). This is probably his floor atm.
 
I hope the media and dems continue to press Bidens poll numbers being better than trumps maybe it will help dems turnout less thinking they have it in the bag
 
VP Pence is only 61. Dems gonna need someone young on their ticket.

Yeah but without the data I can tweet whatever ridiculous number I want too, then again I shouldnt be surprised Trump does that every day....its good to see the actual data. I cant find it on their website either which is odd.

Here is a poll from April that tells a different and frankly more likely story https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/6842659-200203-NBCWSJ-April-Poll-4-19-20-Release.html

In new poll, 60 percent support keeping stay-at-home restrictions to fight coronavirus

Fifty-eight percent say they are more worried about stopping the virus' spread, while 32 percent are more concerned with the economic fallout, a new NBC News/WSJ poll shows.

Looking inside the overall numbers, Biden's biggest advantages are with African American voters (among whom he leads Trump by 85 percent to 7 percent), Latinos (60 percent to 26 percent), voters ages 18-34 (54 percent to 31 percent), women (56 percent to 35 percent) and whites with college degrees (55 percent to 37 percent).

If I believe what? That Biden has the same historical amount of support among blacks as any other Democrat.....or that Trump somehow actually have 41% support among blacks......cause if you think I am gullible for believing Biden has 85% support among blacks but then believe Trump has 41% approval among blacks.......well about that bridge....
 
Graham has a decent chance of losing in November. I think the Democrats get a 51-53 majority in the Senate. That's enough to get things done since I think Schumer kills the Filibuster.
 
I’ll say this again about the polls. Wait until the debates start. What happens when Biden struggles in the Debates?

Anyone that’s interested in listening to Clemson coach Dabo swinney response to everything here it is. It’s 13 minutes but worth hearing. I love Dabo is a very good person. If he ever ran for political office he probably have a shot!

Biden would look scared if he didn’t debate Trump

I actually early voted today here in NC for a primary runoff in NC House District 11, Mark Meadows seat. Really hope Madison Cawthorn gets it, super nice young guy who would bring a nice breath of fresh air and an outside perspective to DC.

trump is Marty Mcfly. He can't help himself. He has become predictable and therefore easily manipulated. I hate the media just like you guys for the same reasons, but they are flying him like a drone. He wouldn't be getting hammered from all sides if he had any self discipline or awareness.

This is pretty naive. Do you mean resisting by laying on your belly arms behind your back waiting to be cuffed then kicked in the head? Yeah dont resist and you wont be assualted? You're naive.

No if you put your hands up and let the officer. Harmlessly and gently handcuff you. There’s no reason to be tackled kicked and assaulted. Only time officers should use non lethal force is to arrest someone resisting arrest.

But you said it was as simple as not resisting and in the video I link the man is compliant and still kicked in the head. The officer was rightly charged with a crime. That needs to happen every time an officer uses unnecessary force.

I 100% agree with you. There’s nothing to argue.
