Trump's Economic Lie Is Crumbling: America Trusts Biden By 20 Points To Help The Middle Class

Trump’s Economic Lie Is Crumbling: America Trusts Biden By 20 Points To Help The Middle Class

BY SEAN COLAROSSI at PoliticusUSA

"SNIP.....

Multiple polls released on Thursday show that in a national head-to-head matchup, former Vice President Joe Biden leads Donald Trump by anywhere from four points (Monmouth University) to 11 points (CNN).

Overall, according to RealClearPolitics, Biden is leading Trump nationwide by an average of about six percentage points.

But one particular nugget tucked deep in the CNN poll should worry the president’s reelection campaign: Biden is cleaning Trump’s clock when it comes to which candidate is most trusted to help the middle class.

According to the survey, America trusts Biden over Trump by nearly 20 points – 57 percent to 38 percent – to help middle class Americans.

After being subjected to the "5-o'clock Follies" for the past few weeks, they'd have to be blind, deaf, or brain-dead to NOT see through IQ45's lies and incompetence!

DISCLAIMER: This statement does not include the MAGAts - we already know they are brain dead!

Thus the 38% who think Trump would be better than Biden for the middle class.

I've never understood those who bought into this scam. But for the middle-class? Trump has served the rich and entitled at the expense of everyone else.

But it's been Covid-19 that apparently is awakening voters. These daily briefings are chipping away at The Donald's credibility, minute by minute. I read a WAPO article about a Virginia district on the Eastern shore, mainly those dependent fishing, clamming, the old oyster men. They supported this demented clown by over 15 points in 2016 and have now realized he doesn't have the foggiest notion what he's talking about.

Better late than never, as they say.

As virulent and ugly as the virus is, it's had one good aspect: exposing Donald Trump and his odious enablers as frauds, incompetents, flat-out liars.

Hallelujah!

CV.. people dying and losing their jobs and livelihood tend to make people sit up and take notice of the one who's so called in charge.

It's Bidens best angle and he should be ramming it home from yesterday until november.

It's how we win back the midwest.

and the Conservatives howled. The right really does want to cleave the country in half with nothing in the middle to hold the country together and be the glue.

He was born and raised in Scranton, PA, and has made a very good habit of going back there to stir up his roots and supporters.

This is important! Pennsylvania was one of the states that Russia stole for IQ45 (there's no way in HELL that Toomey won that election without Russian help!). Joe should have no trouble in the big towns, Philly and Pittsburgh. It's the "T" that has had the trouble for the Dems. Look at a PA map: use one of IQ45's sharpies and draw a "T" on it. Where the "T" is has been a problem for Dems.

Scranton would carry a good vote count for Joe. That, along with IQ45's failure to help coal (southwest PA) and the problems with health care because of COVID-19, should make PA a good, strong state for Joe!
