So many reasons to be optimistic, but of course, caution is in order.
The 2024 presidential election is five months away.
Corporate media is calling it a “tight race.” It probably is, as have been most recent presidential elections, but what do the polls say?
Remember this caveat about polls: They are a snapshot in time, reflecting the views of a tiny fraction of a percent of the population, registered or likely voters, and are fluid depending on the news and issues of the day. Current events rapidly change, as do voter sentients, and voter preferences may shift over the next five months.
That being said, recent polls are popping for former President Donald Trump.
For Trump supporters, Rasmussen Reports's May 3 survey results are encouraging, with this headline, “Trump now +10 over Biden.”
Rasmussen surveys likely U.S. voters, a more reliable sampling compared to simply registered voters, or even residents, meaning whoever answers the pollster’s phone call. In the 2020 presidential election, only two thirds of eligible voters submitted ballots, so likely voters are a more meaningful sample compared to registered voters.
In a three-way contest between Donald Trump, Joe Biden, and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, 46% of likely voters would choose Trump, 36% Biden, and 9% Kennedy.
In any election, turnout is important, which hinges on voter enthusiasm. Trump has an advantage here too with 59% of his voters saying they are very excited about the upcoming election compared to only 50% of Biden’s voters.

The only way to steal a landslide is using high tech.
The low tech crap is there to provide cover for the high tech steal.
Deep State’s frontmen are idiots.
The people hiding behind them are not.
And they learned their lesson well after 2016.
All that said, if you are able-bodied and are loyal to our former republic, don’t vote early or by mail.
Doing so gives aid and comfort to our common enemy.
Get your *** to the polling place on Election Day.
Another red tsunami?
The people who run the country, give all Patriots the finger.
I am cautiously optimistic about people seeing the destruction and the dismantling of America and western society by the Marxists Democrats. Whatever flaws Trump may have, I think people are rushing to him and now clinging to him like a life ring in the tossing ocean. I do think people are going to Trump to save them from the across-the-board anarchy that Democrats have reigned down on them, destroying everything they have known. The middle class is getting absolutely crushed. Cities are being destroyed. The rule of law is all but gone. People see this and are waking up to the horror. I believe they see Trump as the Batman of America. Their last desperate hope before certain destruction.
Rasmussen and CNN polls are outliers. The majority of polls show a tighter race, with Trump up by one percent on average nationally. Trump is doing well in Arizona, Nevada, and Georgia, but to get to 270 he has to win one of the three northern battleground states: Wisconsin, Michigan, or Pennsylvania. These are all toss-ups right now.
“and the RNC is doing nothing about it”
____________
True, and the question is why?
The Never-Trumpers on FR are not happy. Boo hoo.
100,000,000 Votes for Poopy Pants .
Real Clear Politics shows Pennsylvania has Trump,on average, 2 points ahead of Biden. That number should be higher but the number got skewed by the March poll done by Marshall & Franklin which showed an outlier Biden plus 10.
Trump? The Biden Crime Family would be in prison in a republic built on the rule of law. FJB
NO, they are a snapshot in time, reflecting the views of the few that ordered and/or paid for the "poll"
Really?
Rasmussen highly overstates Trump and GOP in general.
There was a time I trusted them, but since ownership changes they are clearly a more activist organization than a polling one.
The best poll they had was one where they asked the same people over and over throughout time their choice. So you for a real good indicator or trends as the polling sample was the same every time.. so as long as the original sample group was reasonably random you got very very good indicators.. I don’t know if they still do that or not
Richard Barris is a good pollster. I trust his polls over all others.

New RNC...same as the old RNC. Maybe worse.
The funny thing about polls is that ballots don’t answer phone calls.
Trump has many flaws, we all do. But I do know a few things, he loves America and wants it to succeed bigly. He wants all Americans to be the best that they can be. He is not a war monger.
