The Biden campaign said in a statement that the 2024 GOP frontrunner “poses an existential threat to American democracy and freedom.” The Trump campaign did not return a request for comment on what message Trump was trying to convey by posting the image.
The poll, conducted by the British firm J.L. Partners for the Daily Mail tabloid, asked 984 likely general election voters to say one word to describe what President Joe Biden and Donald Trump “most wants to achieve from a second term.” The most common phrase for Biden was “nothing,” followed by “economy,” according to the poll.
