In times of crisis, voters tend to close ranks behind the President. Bush had a 90% approval rating after 9/11. Kennedy was at 77% during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Roosevelt was at 75% during WW2. Trump is at 44%. And it's go down. The millions of newly unemployed and sick people will cheerfully go to re-elect Trump in November.
Biden literally has almost no chance. The ONLY chance he has is if the economy stays closed, which the democrat governors are going to do their best to force to happen. But they will only serve to piss off their electorate because as republicans open their states back up and show that people can go to work, the Democrat governors states will revolt if their states aren’t opened.
Le Let's you and me bet on your solid prediction. I want to test your convictions. I named the weapon, you name the stake.
they used to... Not anymore, not in the era of severe TDS, no one expects Trump/America hating Dems to close ranks, they have completely lost their marbles, they are too vested in Trump hate, they are openly rooting for more deaths and economic collapse because orangemanbad, they were openly hoping for a major recession even before the pandemic... Fortunately they are not the ones who decide presidential elections, pragmatic, common-sensual middle of the road voters in the Midwest do. Now this is super primitive nuance-free thinking very prevalent among the libs/progs but not among normal people with brains. The American people understand that Trump created one of the most amazing economic booms in decades which was destroyed by an act of nature, not his actions, they will appreciate Trump's visionary views on China and the borders that preceded the pandemic, they will appreciate his decisive actions to close travel from China, the $1200 checks and generous federal unemployment matching their lost incomes.... and will have no doubt that Trump is best equipped to restore the economy...lest we forget that by November it will be more or less restored already. keep hoping for more deaths and economic disasters but mark my word, not happening, not on Trump's watch.
If there is someone else who can help with winning more than Pence can, that alone is reason enough to invite Pence to remove himself from the ticket. It's always been for that same reason vice presidential candidates go on the ticket in the first place: to help with winning, or hope to gain some advantage for winning. It's for that reason Kennedy chose Johnson -- to try to pick up votes in the South. imo this will not happen, it's not logical or efficacious, and the ticket will be unchanged, but also the future is totally unknown. Same as 2016. Totally unknown. Always is, always will be totally unknown.
Trump is behind Biden in all four key tates that have helped him win the 2016 elections. Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Ohio. But all polls lie. It's a known fact. 2.2% GDP growth on average for 3 years is not the most amazing economic booms in decades. Oabama made 2%.
Like I said, if after 5 years of non-stop Dems/MSM uber-negative uber-dirty uber-dishonest campaign against Trump, while he has not spent a dime (yet) fighting back Biden has a tiny lead in battle ground states - you progs and libs are royally screwed. People are dying, tens of millions are getting laid off, the markets are crashing, the economy is collapsing and he still enjoys one of the highest job approvals of his presidency. Just wait and see, when the virus is tamed and the deaths are minimized, when people get back to work and the economy/markets more or less recover, when Trump unleashes $1 -2 billion campaign reminding of his successes and wiping the floor with corrupt, senile, swampy and creepy Biden and sabotaging America hating democrats in Congress - let me know in November whether Biden's tiny lead holds.
Re-election at these numbers is highly unlikely https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/15/politics/trump-approval-rating-coronavirus/index.html
Trump's been involved in 72 rallies since he became president. The last one took place on March 2, when the pandemic had begun. Hundreds of millions $ have been spent by his campaign team praising his extraordinary achievements over the past three and a half years. And he never misses an opportunity to brag, even during press briefings on the coronavirus. So the guy's pretty far from lacking visibility . Good if you think he can win with those numbers.
No, I think half a year before the election, having been subjected to 5 years of non-stop vicious, lying, dirty dems/msm campaign while not spending a dime to fight back - Trump's numbers are way better than one could possibly expect given the circumstances. Rest assured the numbers will change between now and November, once Trump starts fighting back and unleashes his $1 - 2 billion campaign touting his amazing accomplishments, amazing economy, amazing handling of the pandemic, his visionary position on China, the border wall and immigration etc while "defining" Biden as a corrupt, senile, creepy, swampy moron that he is - Trump's numbers will have nowhere to go but up. Biden's numbers are at the highest point now, no one has ever taken him to task, waged a negative campaign against him, conducted an oppo research on him, scrutinized his record, his votes, his past. Poor senile Joe is such a juicy target and his numbers have nowhere to go but down, down, down. LOL
No actually that's a frequent phenomena of Spouses. Particularly Married woman who can't help but henpeck their hubbies. I think you have the wrong Forum ... I do say.
I cited the CNBC poll the other day.It marked the first time Trump's Approval was higher than his disapproval. Plus I pointed out a valuable poll finding.That Trump's approval is up 12 pts.c/o registered Democrats.

You quoted me responding to someone else about a different point. Unclear why Bottom line..as documented on RCP not only has Trump's corona bump already dissipated...he has had higher approvals (not by much) previously in his Presidency. The fact that his approvals are this low in a time of emergency says volumes.
