If you ever figure out how to get shorts to work on this site, well I won't have to ask you to tell me because I'll just quote you and know.

I'm afraid that we're stuck only embedding actual videos on fff.net.

Trump's polling advantage doubles overnight!!!!!



See. I can write headlines too. Trump is up 0.4 points today from 0.2 points yesterday. Nothing substantial, other than it is possibly the end of this downward-cycle trajectory for Trump.


My honest guess is that Biden* never does better than this in polling. He's hit his peak.

The difference here in 2024 vs the same time in 2020 is the Favorable/Unfavorable polling aggregate.


Unfortunately, RCP doesn't present this information in a very easy way to grab like it does the election polling, so I can't get the exact numbers on this day in the polling aggregate in 2020 vs. now.


But there's a good way around this...


Here's the current Approve/Disapprove numbers for Joe Biden* today:

https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/favorability/joe-biden

40.6 Approve / 55.2 Disapprove

I verified the math, and all 19 polls that are included below it match with those numbers. They list a -14.6 spread on Favorability today, and all 19 polls combined are 276, which divides out to -14.526.

Those polls date back to 12/8 to 12/10 of last year.


So we'll look at the 2020 numbers. They're unfortunately on the very same page and when you go to look at them and realize there is no graph to get daily averages you'll see what I mean about this being frustrating.

But when you get down to April of 2020, you'll see polls that look much different than 2024 Favorability numbers for Joe Biden*.



What I did now was take every poll on the list that dated back all the way to 12/8 to 12/10 of 2019, up until April 18th of 2020.

Then I removed all but the newest poll available for each polling firm, which you can see is what RCP does in the current Favoribility polling numbers. This removes one Fox News duplicate, 2 Quinnipiac duplicates, 2 Monmouth duplicates, 3 Politico/Morning Consult duplicates, 4 Harvard/Harris duplicates and 17 Economist/YouGov duplicates.


This leaves us with a list of 10 polls from unique polling firms between December 8th, 2019 and April 18th, 2020. I'm not taking time out of my day to essentially write code to make the graph look pretty on this site. If you feel the need to check my math, you can copy and paste it from a quote into notepad and it's perfectly readable.



Pollster Date Sample Favorable Unfavorable spread

1. Harvard-Harris 4/14 - 4/16 2394 RV 49 43 Spread+6

2. NBC News/Wall St. Jrnl 4/13 - 4/15 900 RV 37 41 Spread-4

3. Economist/YouGov 4/12 - 4/14 1166 RV 46 51 Spread-5

4. Politico/Morning Consult 4/10 - 4/12 1990 RV 45 44 Spread+1

5. FOX News 4/4 - 4/7 1107 RV 48 47 Spread+1

6. Monmouth 4/3 - 4/7 743 RV 41 42 Spread-1

7. Quinnipiac 4/2 - 4/6 2077 RV 43 43 Spread

8. Grinnell/Selzer 3/27 - 3/30 777 LV 49 46 Spread+3

9. NBC News/Wall St. Jrnl 3/11 - 3/13 900 RV 37 41 Spread-4

10. CNN 3/4 - 3/7 1084 RV 49 46 Spread+3



AVERAGES / SPREAD: 44.4 44.4 Spread+/-0






Our Average Favorable number for Joe Biden* on April 18th of 2020 was 44.4 points.

Amazingly, our Average Unfavorable number for Joe Biden* on April 18th of 2020 was 44.4 points as well.

Adding up both numbers before dividing them between the 10 polls results in both the Favorable and Unfavorable numbers equaling exactly 444 points.

A pure spread of ZERO. According to Polls, exactly as many people found Joe Biden* favorable as found him unfavorable on this day 4 years ago.

Today, Joe Biden*'s spread is -14.6 points. With an Favorable rating of only 40.6 vs. 44.4 in 2020. And he's got a disastrous Unfavorable rating of 55.2 points vs. only 44.4 points in 2020.



Joe Biden* won't go up much higher than this in the General Election polling because he can't. He's simply far too unpopular. Kiss those days of Joe Biden* ever leading Trump by over 7 points again goodbye.

I appreciate that Ted has made a greatest hits collection of what will all end up ultimately being debunked media lies here. Each and every one of them.

And it's ironically titled "Facts" to most people, although no such effort was put forth by Ted himself when the two neurons between his ears fired off and he typed out the OP with two fingers.

At least he spelled facts right though.
