Poll: Majority of Americans Believe Trump Will Win in 2020
Courthouse News Service ^ | June 5, 2019 | Jon Parton

Amid the question of whether Democrats will enact impeachment proceedings, a majority of Americans say they expect President Donald Trump to win re-election in 2020, according to a new poll released Wednesday.

The CNN/SSRS poll found that 54% of Americans said Trump will likely win the 2020 election, including those who disapprove of his job performance. Only 41% said they think he will lose. The number represents a significant shift from December when 51% said they thought Trump would lose in 2020.

The change in numbers comes largely from those who disapprove of the president. Seven months ago, 81% of those who disapproved of Trump said they thought he would lose. In Wednesday’s poll, that number has dropped to 67%.

While Democratic voters have expressed their desire to defeat Trump in 2020, a large number of younger Democrats say they care more about policy issues of the Democratic presidential candidate.

In a separate poll released Wednesday by the Public Policy Institute of California, 48% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning California voters said it’s more important to vote for a candidate most likely to beat Trump, while 42% said it’s more important to select a candidate who closely matches their own views.

Of those ages 18 to 44, 51% said they’d prefer a candidate with similar views, compared to 52% of those 45 and over who said they prefer a candidate who can defeat Trump.

While Democrats are divided by policy preferences, it remains to be seen if it will affect the turnout in the general election. Former Vice President Joe Biden continues to be the front-runner, a candidate who has remained center-left and right of candidates like Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Sen. Bernie Sanders.

Meanwhile, the president continues to receive low job performance ratings despite a growing economy. Among those who disapprove of President Trump, they cite his behavior as the reason why, according to the CNN/SSRS poll. The top responses include lying (13%), racism (11%) and incompetence (11%).

including those who disapprove of his job performance...

That DOESN’T mean all of those people, or maybe not even 80 percent aren’t voting for him.

I took polls under GW before the second election and I said I didn’t approve of his performance.

Still voted for him.

Then there’s the “i’m still afraid to say I like Trump” crowd that is easily good for 3 to 5 percentage points.

He will win handily, I think.

Hope you are well :)

All they need to find is a gun-grabbing, Jew-hating, infanticide advocating, open-borders loving, illegal-alien-rapists coddling demagogue with the right branding (Demagogic Party). How hard can *that* be?

In this case, if in few others, the opinion of the MAJORITY is 100% CORRECT.

The DIMocRATS have NOBODY who has a prayer of defeating DJT & most will lose by a larger margin than Mike Dukakis lost in 1988 to RWR.

If the MSM would equal out their negative coverage -— even just to 2/3 - 1/3 the President’s approval rating would likely be 65-75%.

The MSM CAN’T let that happen, though

I think you mean 1984 when Mondale lost to RWR,

but I’ll settle for a victory also on the 1988 bush/dukakis level. unfortunately the demographics have changed so much that theres some states that are simply lost.

If he doesn’t win the criminals will skate and they all know it. The voter fraud will be nuts.

“Poll: Majority of Americans Believe Trump Will Win in 2020”

Fixed it:

Poll: Majority of Americans Believe Trump Should Win in 2020

When it comes to stealing elections, I NEVER underestimate the Rats. They are working day and night to accomplish this theft.

The propaganda arm of the DNC media has 17 months to convince people that Trump can be beat, and will ramp up their specific once the the democrat candidate is nominated, both by propping him/her up, and by increasing their dirty tricks against the president. Left leaning people on the ground who don't think they can win wont even go to the polls.

The only way Trump can win is if we get out and vote. People get lazy, Trump will win why should I go vote, waste of time.

GET OUT AND VOTE!

There’s a hidden number in here.

Those who will vote for him but would never tell anyone, including a pollster, can safely say they think he’ll win, because—in secret—they’ll pull the lever for him.
