Donald Trump is ahead of President Biden by six percentage points among likely voters in a new national survey. Overall, 74 percent of voters view him as too old for the job, an uptick since the debate.
One of my former wives told me to just at least look for a little optimism, so here goes…
I think you could make an argument this might be “rock bottom” for a Democratic campaign given the media narrative over the past week.
But Trump still can’t hit 50% or get over the hump to a majority. So the one possible good takeaway is that this would indicate that if we could get our shit together, there’s hope.

Trump doesn’t need 50% of the country though, he just needs to tighten his lead in the key battleground states he was already beating Biden in.
I appreciate the positive viewpoint, but we also need to remember that the popular vote doesn’t decide the election. Trump won in 2016 with 46%.
Romney got 47% and lost. I’m well aware of the exceptions.
