And perhaps they are, but they are most certainly not meaningless to a certain Orange someone we all know whose head explodes each and every time a poll like this comes out.

I think 15% is getting pretty damned close to that point.

being validated by lots of other trumpers fleeing the U.S.S. trump-tanic and that it's okay for them to ditch the bastard as well, how is that not actually a useful purpose for these national polls?

I say keep them coming!

Undecided? Really? What will steer these folks in one direction or the other? Are they all relatives of Susan Collins? Maybe there's a way to check for genetic markers for failure to commit.

This is a very damaging poll for Trump, shows he's going to lose in a landslide if something doesn't change dramatically.

The more people die - especially MAGATs and their families - the worse it gets for Turd.

Especially the battleground states. We need a HUGE lead in the state polls to overcome the "hidden Trumper" effect that we saw in 2016.

This is the one I've been waiting to see, this was Biden +8 a month ago.

Trump now at 36% approval, and also on the economy 44% approve top 53% disapprove, that's the key here, if the economy is faltering more he is done.

GHW Bush. All it took was the Willie Horton ad and the tank ride to sink Dukakis.

He wasn't known nationally at all. He had a nice buildup and speech at the convention. There was a good deal of Reagan fatigue, so he polled really well right after the Convention. Then he disappeared for two weeks or so.

During his vacay, GHWB's team defined him. Then he stuck his little head in a little helmet out of a tank turret and his polls tanked. It wasn't just Willie Horton.

Joe Biden has 100% voter recognition and is well liked by a broad swathe of the electorate.

people going to lose their homes by November? Are many more people going to see that Trump is trying to tear us apart, rather than address BLM issues? We need to be looking at a Biden lead of more like 20%
