The Memo: Trump hopes narrow as polls worsen
By Niall Stanage - 06/25/20 06:18 AM EDT



The bad news is piling higher for President Trump, who is having a dismal time in opinion polls.

Trump would almost certainly lose his reelection battle if voters went to the polls today. But Republicans still have reasons for hope — and Democrats to fear — more than four months before Election Day.

For both sides, the prospect of a Trump comeback rests on two possibilities: signs of resurgence in the economy, and the potential for Trump’s presumptive Democratic opponent, Joe Biden, to be weakened by months of attacks.


A new poll from The New York Times and Siena College Wednesday made plain the scale of the challenge Trump faces.

The president trailed Biden by 14 points, 50 percent to 36 percent, among registered voters.

Biden’s lead in the RealClearPolitics (RCP) national polling average is now above 10 percentage points. That puts him in a stronger position than Hillary Clinton at this point of the 2016 cycle. In late June 2016, Clinton led Trump by about 6 points in the RCP average.

Among Democrats and other Trump critics, there are stirrings of unease even now, however.

Marc Lotter - Text TRUMP to 88022
@marc_lotter


THIS is why Obama told Biden he didn’t have to run and his staff keeps him hiding in the basement

Take the polls seriously? Not so much. Disregard them...People may be more motivated to vote if there are bad polling numbers.

It's "the hill", but after a while, we can no longer discount the news just because it's bad.

Either there are tens of millions out there who are keeping their intentions well-hidden, or Mr. Trump is gonna have a hard time winning in November.

Victor Davis Hanson has a good piece that the Washington Times posted today, entitled "Anger will decide the 2020 election":

I hope the folks who are hidin' their opinions from the media really ARE "angry enough" to do the right thing.

Otherwise, Americans are gonna get the future the vote for. And it ain't gonna be good.

Not only can we @Fishrrman , we should.  They're trying to depress our enthusiasm and vote. 

It's right out of their 2016 playbook and right on schedulle.

Clinton Opens 12-Point Lead on Trump as Two-Thirds See Him as Biased
ABC News, Jun 26, 2016

Hillary Clinton surged to a broad advantage against Donald Trump in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll, capitalizing on Trump’s recent campaign missteps. Two-thirds of Americans see him as biased against groups such as women, minorities or Muslims, and a new high, 64 percent, call Trump unqualified to serve as president.

Americans by 68-28 percent think his comment about Judge Gonzalo Curiel was racist. Regardless of whether or not it was racist, 85 percent say it was inappropriate.

Most generally, the public by 56-36 percent, a 20-point margin, says Trump is standing against their beliefs as opposed to standing up for their beliefs.

@Fishrman I agree, but I hope Trump has a good strategy.
