Poll: Donald Trump Leads Joe Biden Among Independents
Breitbart ^ | 12/26/2023 | HANNAH BLEAU KNUDSEN

Former President Donald Trump is leading President Joe Biden among independents, the latest survey from the Economist/YouGov found.

The survey asked respondents who they would support in a 2024 presidential matchup between Trump and Biden. Overall, the two are tied with 43 percent support each, even among registered voters. However, Trump takes the edge among independents, leading his likely 2024 opponent by six points, or 38 percent to Biden’s 32 percent. Six percent of independents remain unsure.

As is consistent with a previous survey, more independents, 38 percent to Biden’s 26 percent, believe Trump is more likely to win the 2024 presidential election, regardless of their personal preference. All those across the board hold this sentiment as well, as 42 percent said they believe Trump would win, compared to 36 percent who said the same of Biden.

I always want to know who these “independents” are. Leftists for whom the bats**t insane Democrat Party isn’t far enough left, or Conservatives who don’t want to be accused of being “moral?”

I find it difficult to believe that anyone, after what has happened to this county in the past 3 years (open borders, chaos in the Middle East, inflation, crime etc.) could vote for Biden.

In general, don’t undecideds normally go against the incumbent?

That Biden could be even remotely competitive in any poll is a depressing testament on the cultural sewer America has become.

This is a common mistake.

Presuming Independents are in some fashion so moderate that they cannot embrace either party.

This is not what they are. They are the original Swamp haters. They care little about tax or spend policy. They DO care about Drain the Swamp and Build the Wall.

They may be pro Choice. They may be anti gun.

But they are all PROFOUNDLY anti Swamp. That’s why they gathered around Trump in 2016.

It doesn’t matter how many people don’t vote for Creepy Joe, it doesn’t matter if he’s 15 points behind going into Election Day (or more accurately, election months), Creepy Joe will get over 90 million “votes” in 2024, and we’ll all be told we’re crazy to wonder how he could possibly be that popular.

Independents are morons.

They like to think they are independent minded, but they are just as easily manipulated.

It’s a front.

Last I heard he is far ahead of Bribery Biden and every other candidate of the both parties in recent polls of Americans with an IQ above double digits!

I think the old adage is that undecideds tend to break against the incumbent. Of course Biden/Trump would not be the standard election dynamic.

I guess this poster is the “duty” Surrender Monkey working this holiday so his buds can give themselves to regroup in the face of all the bad Crime Boss Joey news lately.

“His voters are as addled as Creepy Joe is.”

They are. I had someone on Yahoo tell me how well the stock market was doing and bragging about how much more oil drilling there was.
I guess that’s the new party line. We’ve always been at war with Eastasia.
