The poll, conducted by the network’s own polling team, shows Trump with a six-point lead over the incumbent President Biden. This is the largest lead that Trump has seen in CNN’s history. When the poll expands to include a wider field of candidates, Trump’s lead widens even further, showing a nine-point lead over Biden.

The poll also indicates that a majority of Americans view Biden’s presidency as a failure, while they see Trump’s presidency as a success. This sentiment is reflected in key issues such as the economy, with a majority of voters expressing dissatisfaction with Biden’s handling of economic matters. In fact, among voters who consider the economy to be extremely important, Trump leads Biden by a significant margin.
In addition, the poll shows that Biden’s handling of the Israel/Hamas conflict has earned him criticism, particularly among those who support Israel. Despite his efforts to pander to Hamas sympathizers, Biden has failed to make a positive impression on this issue. This has led to dissatisfaction among voters, with many expressing unfavorable views of both Biden and Trump.
The poll also reveals that several key swing states, which were closely contested in the 2016 and 2020 elections, are showing tight races between Trump and Biden. This further solidifies the growing support for Trump and indicates a challenging road ahead for Democrats in the upcoming election.
Overall, the poll paints a grim picture for the Biden administration and the Democratic Party, highlighting the disillusionment among voters and the challenges they will face in the upcoming election. While these numbers may be alarming for the progressive agenda, it’s essential to remember that public opinion can shift, and the ultimate impact will depend on who actually shows up to vote on election day.
