Trump Surges in Rasmussen Poll, Nearly Wipes Out 10 Point Deficit in One Week to Trail Biden By Just 3

President Donald Trump experienced a 7-point swing in support from likely voters over the last week, according to the latest Rasmussen tracking poll released Wednesday.

Trump now trails former Vice President Joe Biden in the race for president by 3 percentage points among likely U.S. voters, according to the survey. Biden leads Trump 47-44 percent, marking a significant decline from his 10-point lead a week ago, when voters said they favored Biden 50-40 percent.

The shift was driven by independent voters. Voters who said they were unaffiliated with either major party gave Biden a six-point lead, 44-38 percent, down from 12 points a week ago. Biden and Trump attracted a similar level of support from voters in their own parties, with 79 percent of Republicans saying they supported Trump and 76 percent of Democrats saying the same of Biden.

Rasmussen samples a greater number of Republicans than most of its competitors, leading to results more favorable to the GOP and more favorable reviews of Rasmussen from the president. Rasmussen was one of the most accurate pollsters in 2016 — correctly predicting Hillary Clinton would win the popular vote by two percentage points — but fell short in the 2018 midterms, when it predicted voters preferred Republicans by 1 percentage point. Democrats won the House by a cumulative 8.6 percent that year.

Despite a surge in coronavirus infections around the country, the stock market has been consistently improved over the last several weeks, with the Nasdaq and S&P 500 hitting multiple record highs. Biden has been relatively absent from the campaign trial, but has just over a month to select a presidential running mate before the Democratic National Convention kicks off on Aug. 17.

Winning? Isn’t that some great unknown to PRETEND engineers, FAR too poorly educated to pass their PE exam?

So you idiots are bragging about Trump being DOWN 3% in a notoriously right-leaning poll to a senile old man with dementia who can’t even put together a coherent sentence who is hiding in his basement and not even campaigning. Tired of winning yet?

According to those polls he wasn’t going to win in the first place.

I understand that pollsters are PRETEND engineers that actually were brave enough to sit for their PE exam … but FAILED MISERABLY.

Other PRETEND engineers are too cowardly to even make that attempt.

As if Trump was ever behind in the race considering how skewed 99% of the polls are in favor of Democrats.

This will get Trump elected and send the BLM to jail all of them, one and all
In the video at the link’s OP it says that George Floyd said he’d been “hooping” which means he’d put drugs up his rectum to evade the cops.
“George Floyd” and “The Killing of George Floyd” are his two articles on Wiki but they’ve not made mention of the porn star George Floyd saying he’d been “hooping” (meaning he’d put drugs up his rear).
The Wiki articles are all lies from A to Z. No mention even of George Floyd’s career in porn.

Why don’t you all go and edit the George Floyd pages and mention he said he’s put drugs up his rear end…and that he was a porn star This’ll ensure Trump his reelection and it’ll send black, gay Chicago criminal Obama/the Antichrist back to the jail he should have been in anyways to begin with.

Blast the racist, fascist, Islam-Leftists back to the cave they crawled put from!

Very misleading thread headline. They suggest, briefly in the video, that he may have been smuggling drugs earlier in the day in his rectum.

But they don’t ever say that is how any drugs got in his system.

That’s a Leftist comment. You’re picking the wrong comment if you want to destroy the Islam-Left, KKK, “Felix”/
Look at the video.
It says clearly in plain ENGLISH that the tape says Floyd said he’s been “HOOPING”
That means taking drugs up the butt which meant that the deadly does of drugs he took came from a overdose in his intestin.

Spread the news about Floyd and let’s edit his Wiki pages adding that he overdosed through his butt.

Also about the COVID.
Spread the news. My wife for example at home thinks the new second wave measures is finally getting to grips with the virus and we can finally get free of it.
But I showed her the daily death figures, that are invisible statistically. COVID is not killing people any more.
Her face fell apart when she saw that. the government doesn’t say a damn thing about it.
Start telling the world about it. That’s our duty. Let’s reveal the lie about Floyd and edit Wikipedia. Break the Lest-Islamists.
It’s our duty. Start by telling your family and showing them the daily COVID death-figures. Then start spreading the news around through the family to foreigners outside the family.

Attack the BLM Letist terrrorist by revealing porn star Floyd’s real death facts.

There was a lot of vote fraud by the Democrats in 2018 (some types of vote fraud, such as ballot harvesting, were even made legal in some states).

So let Joe get his hopes up right along with the democrats, who always know they are going to win. Forgot all about Hillary? And so soon too. lol

The silent majority, Trump voters, will show up at the voting booths in November. Guess we should prepare ourselves for the democrats going crazy once again when Trump comes out way ahead of Biden (or any other democrat they would have put in there). Yeah, yeah, he must have cheated cause it’s the democrats that deserve to win. Right? Wrong! He’ll win by honest to goodness live voters. It’s only the democrats that have to dig up dead voters and illegal votes. You’d think they would learn from experience but they never do…

The silent majority is waiting patiently and quietly to hammer the socialists on November 3rd. Patriots don’t participate in lefty polls.

We need Trump and a huge majority in the the House and Senate. The Socialists, Communists and criminal liars (known as Democrats) need to lose every election in order to save the country. A Democrat win is an existential threat to America.
