Biden had a modest advantage on the issue of political extremism

The fact that they asked that question is because they want to change the subject from Lieden's and Trump's actual policies and they hoped Lieden would have an advantage on that. Given how the media hammers that theme it's a surprisingly small advantage.

The article has even more blatant bias toward the end:

Trump falsely claims his 2020 election defeat resulted from fraud. He included the claim in a fiery speech shortly before hundreds of his supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Five people died.

That has no logical connection to Lieden's approval ratings - what the article is allegedly about. Trying to change the subject.

Aside from the fact that they repeat the usual unprovable claim that Trump's belief that the election was stolen is false, who are the five people who died? The linked article says four people died that day. I think they were all Trump supporters, although I only knew about two. The linked article doesn't explain anything about who those people were.

The fifth is the Capitol officer who died of natural causes the next day. The linked article conveys the impression, without explicitly saying it, that the officer who died of natural causes was killed by Trump's supporters. It also links the later suicides of four officers to Trump supporters. Appalling stuff.

The poll laid out Biden's weaknesses as well as a few strengths.

Well, it IS Reuters (Canadian) BTW.

One does not know, however highly suspects a "bait and switch" plan in place, in which the Dems will fake something and nudge Joe to greener pastures and install the candidate of their choosing without all of that bothersome primary election democracy interfering.

The alternative candidate(s) would be attractive, well-spoken, and well-rehearsed to claim surprise and although reluctant to serve, will do so to preserve our "democracy". Triangulation might be likely (meaning that the candidates could say that "Joe went too far" in places.)

Am I certain of this? Of course not, it's merely a guess. That said, we should prepare for the contingency by making strong, popular policy platforms now, and expecting to run against a pretend middle ground, and not just JB.

Years ago I was a democrat precinct worker - I think there was lots of fraud going on... Want to know where it happens? In swing states... in precincts that hand in their ballot boxes 3 or 4 hours later than the rest of the state.

Remember many who disapprove of Joe think he’s not far enough to the Left for them.

That is good for us. They may not vote at all OR the will vote for RFKJr.

Same thing that happened to Bush Sr when Clinton won a three way race.

1) I remember Joe being very unpopular two years ago ( and one year ago, and three years ago, and four years ago ...)

2) I don’t remember the media admitting that Joe was unpopular two years ago.

His real approval rating is around 10% and I’d bet on it.

“Biden, a Democrat, has been largely tied with Trump in national polls”

Really?

“The state of the economy was seen as the top issue, picked by 23% of respondents as the most important problem facing the country. Some 21% saw political extremism as the top issue and 13% picked immigration.”

Political extremism as the 2nd top issue almost double over the issue of immigration? What alternate universe does Reuters live in? Sounds like they have been running their polls in the upper Manhattan West side and calling them “national” polls

‘He’ll still win in November, only with eleventy-billion “votes” this time!’

I’m afraid that you’re right. They’ll “find” just enough votes in just enough swing states to “win.” And the next moring around here there will be great gnashing of teeth and choruses of “we wuz robbed” and the media will declare Trump and his supporter to be sore losers and their claims of fraud to be meritless. And that will be that.
