One Fox News Poll Finding Signals Potential Doom For Trump

https://www.politicususa.com/2019/08/16/trump-doom-fox-news-poll.html


The Fox News poll found that Trump isn’t persuading anyone outside of his supporters to vote for him, including who dislike both the president and Joe Biden.

According to the Fox News Poll:


Voters who have a negative view of both Biden and Trump back Biden by a 43-10 percent margin in the head-to-head matchup, although many would vote for someone else (27 percent), wouldn’t vote (12 percent) or are undecided (8 percent).

-snip-



Trump was able to win in 2016 because he was able to make voters dislike Hillary Clinton more. Many people in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania didn’t vote for Trump, but against Clinton. If those people heavily support Joe Biden, it means that Trump’s ceiling of support is more limited than many have imagined. Trump might be limited just to those who are his biggest supporters. Trump’s strategy is to discredit Joe Biden as a viable candidate, if he fails to do that, he doesn’t the baseline of popular support needed to win reelection.

Donald Trump’s refusal to expand the pool of voters who might support him is sowing the seeds for his political doom.

over the top like they did last time.

Why would Russia still be working on our 2020 election if not to keep trump where he's at despite the polls.

I don't particularly like Biden but if a dirty dog was running again Trump I'd vote for the dirty dog. Heck, I'd even put a signed in my yard "Vote for Dirty Dog for President"

Either Joe Biden or Elizabeth Warren as the Democratic Nominee, Trump will have trouble defeating because they are talking with people, hearing their questions, reaching them on a human level, addressing their concerns....

They do not need to hold huge rallies of the same people in order to address their concerns just yet. They are hitting hard at Trump with an offensive strategy that Trump has no comeback for other than to name call. Trump has lost voters, nor has he expanded his base of support.

I trust people are finally paying attention. Polls are an indication that they are and Trump is indeed "RATTLED"".

primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
