I wrote on Sunday about a couple of very important things in the new CNN poll.
The first was that former President Donald Trump was leading Joe Biden by six points head-to-head, but by nine points when you add in other candidates, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Perhaps the most intriguing finding—particularly in a CNN poll—was that 55 percent of Americans found the Trump presidency a success, while most Americans, 61 percent, thought Biden’s time in office was a failure. Even after all the media attacks and even after all the lawfare, Americans are just not buying it. They know how much better they had it under Trump.
But now, a couple of other polls along this same line confirm that Americans hold Trump in higher esteem than Biden. CBS’s poll said that voters in the swing states of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania thought that they would be financially better off if Trump wins and that it’s gotten worse under Biden.
That’s a flashing red light for Joe Biden when those states are so important to the election and the economy is the most important issue.
