Poll: Joe Biden Trails Donald Trump, Leads Ron DeSantis and Generic GOP Candidate
Breitbart ^ | 9.19.23 | NICK GILBERTSON

Posted on 09/21/2023 1:30:13 PM PDT by conservative98

Former President Donald Trump leads President Joe Biden nationally in a hypothetical general election match-up while a generic Republican candidate trails Biden by four points, according to a Democracy Institute poll first reported by the Daily Express.

In a rematch of the 2020 election, 49 percent of likely voters back Trump, placing him 5 percentage points ahead of Biden at 44 percent. Another seven percent are either undecided or would support someone else in that scenario.

In a race where Trump is the GOP nominee and Vice President Kamala Harris is the Democrat nominee, the 45th president’s lead expands to 11 points, at 51 percent and 40 percent, respectively.

When respondents were provided with the options of Biden or a generic GOP candidate, Biden took 48 percent of support while the generic candidate earned 45 percent.

The Democracy Institute also tested a hypothetical match-up between Biden and Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), who for months was Trump’s clear-cut closest competitor before falling back to the rest of the pack in many polls. DeSantis underperforms the generic GOP nominee, garnering 43 percent to Biden’s 47 percent.

🚨”According to the findings, Trump would comfortably beat Biden by 49 percent to 45 percent, while Florida Governor Ron DeSantis would lose to Biden by 47 percent to 43 percent. In fact, any generic GOP candidate against Biden except Trump would lose 48 percent to 45 percent.”🚨…— Jason Miller (@JasonMillerinDC) September 19, 2023

Good question.

The ones that don’t have their head up their asses, will back Trump......quietly.

The ones backing Haley are a “Lost Cause” without any hope of redemption.

Some are starting to call for a Desantis Haley unity ticket.

That Biden could be leading *anyone* in the polls is a clear indication of the danger this country is in.

Ted Cruz thinks the Dems will plop Big Mike in the driver’s seat at their convention.

I do agree with him that Joe’s not going to be the one to run. He’s just saying he is because he doesn’t want to be a lame duck.

Trump beats Biden by five percentage points. Yeppee! Hip Hip Hooray!
Interesting thought, since neither Trump nor Biden will be on the ballots next November.
Biden will be in a nursing home or pushing up orchids and Trump will be declared either ineligible by the courts or the Republican Party will tell us that he is just too too icky to be on their ballots.

Ouch!

Just more proof the narrative pushed by the DeSanctimonious Online Influencers that Desantis can beat Biden where President Trump is False!

Hahah, who exactly does that unify? They are both od the same wing of the party. Secondly, why would a 2 term govenor who is gaining momentum play second fiddle to a one term Govenor who is losing momentum?

Maybe if something serious happens to Biden. One problem is Michelle hates politics, and didn’t like the presidency when her busband was in office. She’d have to give up her lifestyle to go do that.

If Biden wants to run, he is going to run, and nobody is going to stop him (unless something serious happens to Biden.) He will be the nominee for the Democrats and Trump will be the nominee on our side. It will be a rematch.

Nobody else like Newsom wants to run because they don’t want to be in DeSantis’s shoes 50 points down. Mark Levin also agrees that Biden will be the nominee. He and his wife still want it and he will never step down because he likes the lifestyle and all the free stuff and the very light work schedule and he does not want to be prosecuted.

The most important thing President Trump should be getting his massive ballot harvesting op up.

But they won’t have Covid lockdowns and scares, nor democrat governors able to force mail in ballots to everyone, ballots that can be collected and harvested mind you, this time.

We’ll see millions of people, and whole states, going back to traditional voting.

Data: https://www.census.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2022/2020-presidential-election-voting-report.html#:~:text=For%20the%20first%20time%20on%20record

From the 2020 Current Population Survey (CPS) Voting and Registration Supplement:

“For the first time on record in the CPS voting supplement, a majority (69.4 %) of voters cast ballots by a nontraditional method in the 2020 presidential election.”
