poll shows Trump has erased Biden’s lead in #Texas and pulled slightly ahead.

Trump: 48
Biden: 46

That's a 7-point shift from two months ago, when Biden led 48-43 in this poll.

vulnerability and this poll was taken before losergate AND before all the political ads go up concerning Social Security and Medicare shutdown. Trump is on deep trouble. He may not know it but the GOP does
