Poll: Biden holds 11-point lead over Trump
Former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden is currently holding a 11-point lead over sitting President Donald Trump in this year’s race for the White House, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released on Wednesday.
Biden, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, leads Trump 50 to 39 percent in a head-to-head matchup in the U.S. presidential election, the poll showed. That’s up from the 49 – 41 percent lead Biden held in April’s poll, but the change is within the margin of error.

Among the registered voters, Democrats go to Biden 88 – 5 percent; Republicans go to Trump 87 – 8 percent; and independents go to Biden 47 – 36 percent.
“What does the 11 point Biden lead tell us? At best for Team Trump, it says voter confidence in President Trump is shaky. At worst for them, as coronavirus cases rise, Trump’s judgement is questioned – and November looms,” Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Tim Malloy said.
Trump’s job approval rating ticks lower amid the coronavirus outbreak, according to the poll.
Forty-two percent of voters approve of the job he is doing, while 53 percent disapprove. That’s compared to a 45 – 51 percent job approval rating he received in April, his highest ever.

Besides, 50 percent approve of Trump’s handling of the economy while 47 percent disapprove, compared to a 51 – 44 percent approval in April.
The Quinnipiac poll surveyed 1,323 self-identified registered voters by phone from May 14 to 18. It has a margin of error of 2.7 percentage points.

Bovine excrement. Figures lie and liars figure that people will believe their blatant propaganda. Biden stands no chance of unseating Trump. Now, if the Democrat Party dumps Biden for someone not senile and selects Hilary Clinton things could get very interesting.
The perilous course that the 45th elected President of the United States – Donald. J. Trump, continues to lead America, into it’s abyss, makes for fascinating and excitable following and reading.
The continual disappearance evaporation of his support base, is a prime example, of the shambolic mess that America finds it-self to-day.
President Trump, continues to demonstrate not just to the population of 330 million of his American citizens, but to the wider world, the incompetent, un-qualified individual he is, and not worthy to occupy the Oval Office in the White House, in Washington DC.
He will leave the White House infamous in his Presidency, with 200.000 deaths of Americans through this novel coronavirus pandemic, as his lasting legacy, of his failed Presidency.
America, come November 2020, when it appoints it’s next President, will be an economically in disarray and turmoil.
We are witnessing the self imploding of America, just not in the White House nor the Republican Party, but literally right throughout the entire (50) fifty states, that make up America.
Statistically, apply them broadly through all areas of the American economy, and other, they highlight a continual strong downward trend, that will have on-going catastrophic ramifications and lasting damage results for America.
Straight Minded and Thinking – World Leaders and ALL like minded human beings, must be mortified by what the Presidency of America – they are witnessing and seeing displayed exhibited to the World stage.
Americas situation currently – there pain will not be eased, there are darker days and times ahead, but they get there Chance AGAIN – this coming November, to look back on History, to learn from History and set themselves on a course of reconstructing themselves as a Country, that from the 21st century sees it’s re-birth and over-due resurrection.
Interesting but a serious situation that the people of America must address, and they get there opportunity again this coming November.
President Trump has lost a degree of support, but this position is by polls and they can be misleading as history has shown us numerous times in the past.
It’s rather a conundrum calamitous position in America, that they need to face head on and resolve, for there future.
Joe Biden, has served American throughout his Political life, with a high degree of distinction.
The major problem is his age, not his background nor experience, they are solid, but age.
There are the concerns of his cognitive mental position, which, with age, we are all, vulnerable for this type or similar health issues.
The Democratic Party – they have a major problem, going forward if Joe Biden, is “ticked off” as there man, to challenge Trump, for the Presidency.
If the Democratic Party, did not “sign off” on Joe Biden, but choose to nominate Hilary Clinton, this would be a process that would need absolute overwhelming support from ALL of the Democrat Party.
I have a problem Legally or under the Democratic Party Rules of America, if this type of decision, at this late stage, leading up to there Presidential election’s, if, in this case, Joe Biden could be asked to step aside.
They certainly – if Hilary Clinton was put up to be the challenger against Trump, the Democratic Party, would be in a much greater and healthier position to win, and have a Democratic President as the elected 46th President of the United States of America.
Jack Russell’s – comments are correct – a formidable opponent Hilary Clinton would be to Donald. John. Trump, and would be interesting to watch.
We must not forget, that say (4) four years ago, she was the people of America, that got off there seats and bothered to vote, Hilary Clinton won clearly in there votes – the peoples choose to be there 45th President, not Donald. John. Trump.
America – never a dull moment, and what we wake to in days months to come, beyond my intellectual capacity to picture what may occur.
They have an opportunity in November – to stem there demise and steady the ship and get there country back into a sorted planed re-structuring program, but if they have not – AGAIN – seen the turmoil that they are in, the black dark hole of a country will keep slipping away, and what will be left – does Donald. J. Trump still own any Casinos ? – if he does, lets go off to Las Vegas and take a few bets ///
I highly doubt this. sorry, I think this is FAKE News!
The growing dissatisfaction with how Dem governors are handling the cv is helping DJT. This is mostly fake news, but let’s keep believing that Biden will win so that he doesn’t get replaced by someone without dementia. Biden keeps shooting himself in the foot, even when confined to his own basement. How will he handle a debate?
