President Donald Trump got some bad news from the latest Fox News poll in which he got clobbered by Joe Biden while Bernie Sanders saw a big jump in support after sliding in many recent polls.
Lets start with Trump, who loses in head-to-head matchups with every Democratic candidate Fox polled. While Trump managed to slightly close the gaps with Sanders, Senator Elizabeth Warren, and Senator Kamala Harris, Biden has opened up a 14-point lead against Trump, 52 percent to 38 percent. Biden led Trump by 12 points in the August Fox News poll.
For Biden, the news is that not only is he crushing Trump head-to-head, he leads by an even greater margin in a head-to-head matchup with the surging Warren. If the Democratic primary were between those two, 53 percent said they would support Biden, to 37 percent for Warren.
And while Bidens overall support among Democrats slipped two points, from 31 percent to 29 percent, he maintains an identical 11-point lead against his next competitor.

(25,471 posts)5. To put that 52-38 in perspective, Reagan beat Mondale by 18 points.
Biden's lead is nearly that large. Of course, it's very early and there's about 10% undecided/other in those numbers, but it's promising.
I'd like to see Warren with similar numbers, as I think Biden or Warren will probably be the nominee. She has some momentum, so time will tell if she starts showing a similar lead on Trump. I think she will.
