Donald Trump is already in a world of trouble heading into 2020 as a majority of the American people say that they will definitely vote against him in next years general election.
According to a new NPR/PBS/Marist poll, just 44 percent of the country said they approve of Trumps job performance. But the number that should concern the president is 53 the percentage of voters who say they refuse to cast their ballot for Trump next year.
That number is slightly higher among independent voters with 54 percent of the key voting bloc saying they wont be voting for Trump in 2020. Overall, just 42 percent of independents believe the president is doing a good job.
The economy wont help Trump in 2020
While most incumbent presidents would get a boost from the current economy, the polling shows that Donald Trumps fate seems to be completely detached from the economic conditions that he inherited from Barack Obama and Joe Biden.

(32,703 posts)There are a lot of Americans who call themselves "independent" but they vote as a progressive or liberal. In other words, they could be a Democrat that just never bothered to join the party. That's how I was for over 30 years. I finally joined the Democratic Party in 2008 because I wanted to vote for Hillary in the primary.
We still need to reach out to these independent voters and give them a candidate they can get excited about. Our biggest challenge is - not Chump - but indifference.
