New Poll Shows Trump Leading Biden and DeSantis Losing

Donald Trump holds a 42%-40% lead over Joe Biden. If Trump beats Biden in the popular vote, Trump would win one of the greatest electoral college victories in decades. Polling shows Trump has a lead on Biden because 37% of independents support Trump vs. only 17% of independents who support Biden.

The same poll shows Joe Biden beating Ron DeSantis by a margin of 37%-35%. Polling shows DeSantis only recives 24% of the indpendent vote. That is 13 points less than Donald Trump.

Team DeSantis has been falsely arguing that Trump cannot win over independent voters, but polling shows quite the opposite. It is actually Governor DeSantis who is polling poorly with swing voters.

Premise polling also shows Trump holding close to a 30-point lead on DeSantis in the GOP primary. Trump has picked up 6 points on DeSantis since Premise last conducted a poll.

On Wednesday, Trump commented on his poll numbers on TruthSocial, “Great Poll numbers this morning. Ron DeSanctimonious might as well turn around & head back to Florida, where they don’t see him at all lately – he is wasting his time. Ron was elected Governor not to spend all of his time campaigning for another position. It reminds me of Sloppy Chris Christie. He was Governor of New Jersey & then virtually moved to New Hampshire to campaign for President. He drew flies, quit the race, enthusiastically endorsed me, but became VERY unpopular in N.J. 9% Approval!”

In another post on Truth, Trump brought up the fact that Biden arrested him because he is leading in the polls, writing, “Please remember that the only reason I was indicted (ELECTION INTERFERENCE) is because the Democrats don’t want to run against me. They weaponized the DOJ & FBI. I am beating Crooked Joe Biden in virtually every poll, and easily beat him in the last election, but the election was RIGGED. In 2016 it was the same thing, spewed from the mouths of the same failed pundits and losers. They said I couldn’t beat Hillary – How did that work out??? Doug Schoen of FoxNews should get a new playbook!”

If Trump beats Biden in the popular vote, Trump would win one of the greatest electoral college victories in decades.

That’s not necessarily true. A state-by-state strategy needs to be taken. Republican Presidents have repeatedly proven that you can lose the popular vote and still win the electoral college.

“Watch the polls swing once Trump is convicted (rightly or wrongly) in his documents trail in August.”

Yep, he’ll go up another 10 points, lol. And DeSantis will go nowhere fast. Like Icarus, Ron’s hubris got the best of him prematurely, and being egged on by the money of the globalists, RINO’s, anti-Trumpers and Yeb Bush lovers desperate to get rid of Trump, DeSantis has flown too close to the sun. And thus the fall from grace.

Currently, I don’t plan on voting in the primary next year. I don’t trust anyone running. I want to like Trump but he praised Charlie Crist as FL governor and said that Andrew Cuomo did a better job than DeSantis in handling COVID. Those are disqualifying statements in my view. I’ll vote in the general for the GOP nominee.

Gov. Youngkin has the answer for that. In the last Virginia election liberal Fairfax was up to its usual tricks: after all of the other counties reported their totals and it was clear how many votes were needed to overcome the Republican lead, Fairfax announced that they had “found” several thumb drives with tens of thousands of Democratic votes. They do this in every election, but this time Youngkin had a flock of attorneys and poll watchers in place to prevent it. Had Youngkin not been thus prepared, he would have lost the election.
