From the article:
According to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released Tuesday, the unpopular president is trailing Biden by eight percentage points, 47 percent to 39 percent.
For Biden, thats a two-point jump in just a week and a four-point jump over the past two weeks as Trumps coronavirus response is increasingly viewed as a failure by a majority of the American people.

(23,140 posts)We need to work like ten points behind! Shitgibbon's/Putin's dirty tricks will cut into whatever margin we have in polls. DO NOT rely on polls!!! DO NOT get comfortable with ANY lead!!

(7,888 posts)polls like those showing Mrs. Clinton was leading by 40% that did not reflect Russian interference and other dirty tricks.

I know exactly how he feels. It's been going on since November, 2016.

(2,657 posts)who is the very embodiment of the Seven Deadly Sins. Notice how we also almost ended up with all Four Horsemen of the Apocalpyse
--Plague (COVID-19)
--War (Almost got into a war with Iran, until people screamed about it)
--Famine (According to some, we might have "Great Depression II" because of COVID-19 and the corresponding economic slowdown, which might result in a worldwide famine)
--Death (COVID-19 is causing plenty of death, as did Trump's cuts to Obamacare and other services)
So, we may end up with only three out of four of the horsemen...but there is still time left for Trump to get us into a war with someone before he leaves office. Remember, he does think that war is the way Presidents win reelections:

(17,458 posts)and nominate some one like DeSantis. Trump can leave like Hitler, claiming that the country is not worthy of him.
To be honest, I lost all faith in polls after the last presidential election.
Trump has a huge amount of power at his fingertips. He can not be counted out, until he is knocked down.
guillaumeb
(42,641 posts)He is no crazier than he was 6 months ago. All the GOP cares about is tax cuts for the rich, and making the Judiciary safely conservative.

You can only sell shit for so long. Your brand becomes known, your message is tired, your sound grates on the nerves, and you never did make any sense.
8 points? Seems not a lot, but the Biden Campaign is experienced and not in high gear yet.

If he does lose badly how will he spin that? How will he react? He sure wont graciously congratulate Biden, thats for sure.
