New poll shows Biden closing gap on Trump — but that’s where good news ends for Democrats
NY Post
As Donald Trump shows up to a Manhattan court this week for his latest lawfare flogging from Democrats, Biden boosters are doing their best to trumpet a poll turnaround for the president, after what they claim was his electrifying performance at the State of the Union.
“Is Joe Biden the Favorite Now?” begged Newsweek.
It’s true that the latest New York Times-Siena poll over the weekend showed Biden has closed the gap with Trump nationally, producing a statistical tie of 45% to 46%.
But that’s where the good news ends for Democrats.
It’s not just in the battleground states that Biden consistently lags behind his nemesis, including in a recent Wall Street Journal poll showing Trump ahead by up to eight percentage points in six of seven crucial states.
On the economy and foreign relations, two areas Biden claims are his forte, he was smashed by Trump in the NYT-Siena poll.
