Thanks to Democrats' circular firing squad on the Nevada debate stage on Wednesday night, President Trump ought to have woken up feeling pretty good about his reelection odds, and a Quinnipiac poll just confirmed that the primary's front-runners aren't just weak generally but specifically in the "swing states" that gave Trump his Electoral College victory in 2016.
In Wisconsin, Trump blows out every single top Democrat in head-to-head matchups. Amy Klobuchar and Elizabeth Warren lose to him by double digits, and supposed centrists Pete Buttigieg and Michael Bloomberg lose by 8 points. Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden fare best against Trump, losing to him by 7 points, more than twice the poll's margin of error.
Michigan is a toss-up, with every candidate within the margin of error except for Sanders and Bloomberg, who each best Trump by 5 points.
