Trump nearly ties with former presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) in the poll, with 37 percent saying they would vote for Trump, and 38 percent picking Sanders.

Lose to Biden? Obviously, by the time the pollsters got to that question, the pollees had had enough time to get down several glasses of Yuletide eggnog. “Biden? Sure, why not. Here, hang on a bit. I gotta refill my mug.”

This is a poll of “Americans”. How did they exclude illegal immigrants from the poll? In other words, they accepted anyone who responded to the poll. Such a poll will always prefer Democrats. This is good news for Trump

Biden is the most powerful possible nominee.

He would have won easily in 2016, and should probably be favored in 2020.

What rock have you been living under????

Here's why polls this early in the game are meaningless.

Four years ago today, anybody seriously speculating that Donald Trump would get nominated by the Republican Party would have been laughed out of town.

Ditto eight years before that if anybody speculated that Barack Obama would be the 2008 Democrat nominee (likely response would have been "Barack WHO?")

So at this point, it is safe to say that nobody knows who will be the 2020 Democrat nominee.

Wait until someone put together a video compilation of Biden’s pervy hands all over girls from 9 to 90 with that sickening whisper in the ear from behind he does. He’ll be lucky if doesn’t get prosecuted as a sex offender.

This is a ‘Fake News’ article. Biden will never beat Trump. He would do no better than Hillary Clinton.

None of that matters.

Trump was elected by CDs that voted twice for Obama, and switched.
If he is to be re-elected, he can’t lose Wisconsin, Michigan, AND Pennsylvania.

Biden would win all three easily. Oppo reserach or no. He’s one of their people.

It damsure won’t be a white male

But not convinced Hillary will let any other vagina “break the glass ceiling” as long as Dr. Feelgood can keep the venom flowing through her veins

There is no way in hell, that the Democrats will nominate an elderly white male.

Milwaukee, Detroit and Philadelphia will make sure that Trump doesn’t win their state, regardless of the Dem nominee.

140% turnout, instead of 114%

Polls are worthless at this point—so many things are going to happen between now and 2020. All I can say is that it will NOT be Beto, Bernie or Biden. Nor will it be Hillary or Kerry or Moshelle Obama. It will be a new guy not seen as a major contender.

Whatever the polls say, Biden is dead meat walking. He doesn't have a prayer of winning a Presidential election.

This is the predictable sort of trash that the media spews in hopes of influencing Republican 'strategists' to adopt some of the stuff Biden spouts off about.

IOW, disinformation aimed at those who run the campaign of their opposition so those running the opposition campaign undermine their own position with a portion of the public who would otherwise support them.

Polls at this point mean nothing.

I still think the Dems nominate Hillary in 2020.
