Most voters are concerned about the pandemic and the economy, so when they favor Joe Biden on coronavirus and Donald Trump has a narrow edge on pocketbook issues -- it makes for a tight race for the White House.
The latest Fox News Poll finds voters trust Biden to do a better job than Trump on health care by 17 points, coronavirus by 9, and relations with China by 6. Trump is trusted more on the economy by a slim 3-point margin.
That might be the election in a nutshell, says Democrat Chris Anderson, who conducts the poll with Republican Daron Shaw. Trump has a slight advantage in a narrow debate about economic recovery, but a debate about coronavirus or public health more broadly benefits Biden.

(9,998 posts)He's NEVER going to lose that 40% base. Time to accept that they are among us, and nothing we can do about them.

(5,722 posts)Just how stupid does one have to be to think Humpty Dumpling Donald can do a "better job" on the economy after almost four years of driving it into the dirt? He's doing exactly what he did with all his other enterprises: run the scam into the ground and run off with the cash while suckers are left to clean up the catastrophic mess. Nothing has changed! How completely blinkered are these oiks?

(6,212 posts)they trust a person who went bankrupt multiple times and lost the money his daddy left him as best for the economy. What is wrong with those people. Are they polling the wealthy who want him to keep lowering their taxes.

(12,618 posts)Trump rarely gets above the low 40's when matched against Biden. In a few polls he gets in the mid 40's but for the most part, he hovers in the low 40's right, around his approval rating.
You don't win an election with numbers like that.

(63,221 posts)What is wrong with people? He has fucked things up beyond belief, not to mention the high-level grifting and outright corruption committed by him, his family and his party. Are people really this stupid?

(10,197 posts)I think it was still a significant amount, as their country burned down around them. But he kept his propaganda machine going till the end, just like Fox. The 40% probably represents those people whose only source of news is fox and similar outlets.
