2024 Election: Biden Holds On To Slight Lead Over Trump, Quinnipiac University National Poll Finds; Trump Gets Higher Marks On Age, Mental & Physical Fitness; Biden Does Better On Ethics, Empathy & Temperament

In a hypothetical 2024 general election presidential matchup, President Joe Biden holds a small lead over former President Donald Trump with 49 percent of registered voters supporting Biden and 45 percent supporting Trump, according to a Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pea-ack) University national poll of registered voters released today.

So, why didn't the nyt tout this poll? Besides, polls are not reliable. But, I like posting positive polls about President Biden. This IS DU, after all, not RU

They're not actually seeing the candidates in action.
They're seeing that the MSM continually questions Biden's fitness, and not Trump's.

Corporate media is in the bag for a republican president. They no longer promote journalism. They're money making entities that don't want to pay their fair share of taxes, just like all corporations and shareholders.

They think they’ve already seen it all from Trump, they know what he’s like, and they’ve tuned him out. Instead they see caricatures and impressions which still rely on his previous persona as a brash reality show host always ready with a quick comeback. It gives people a false perception of what he’s like these days.

I think once people start tuning in to this race as the year goes on, they’ll be shocked to discover what has happened to Trump’s mental state. I know I was:

I just hope it happens soon. This whole election season is scary. Those people are scaring me as they are undoing decades of progress. U of F just fired everyone in the diversity office and closed it down. That's just a plain fascist move to shackle higher education and freedom of speech.

all these years Trump rides his golf cart even when he went years ago to that summit meeting and all the leaders walked except him.

I think the reel of that needs to be shown over and over while Joe is on his bike.

I think Joe looks his age and Trump does everything he can like a aging actor to cover his. Joe is more soft spoken most of the time and why do people think yelling or talking loud seems strong? ugh!
