SLIDESHOW: TOP DEMOCRATS RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT IN 2020
Last week, reports surfaced that Trump instructed his personal aides to lie about internal polls that showed him losing in several key states to Biden, whom Trump has called the “weakest” of the crowded, 23-candidate Democratic field for 2020.
Trump has secured more than $30 million in funding this quarter for his 2020 re-election bid, far outpacing all of his Democratic rivals.
Some pundits have warned that polls must be taken with a grain of salt, as previous elections — including early polls for the 2016 election — predicted a significantly different outcome than the real one.
In June 2015:
Jeb Bush was polling at 22
Donald Trump was polling at 1%
In June 1983:
Ronald Reagan was polling at 39%
His opponent, Walter Mondale was polling at 49%
Reagan won 49 states in 1984
The media thinks you’re stupid

“I don’t believe those polls. There’s no way [former Vice Pres. Joe Biden] beats me in Texas,” Pres. Trump told @ABC News’ @GStephanopoulos during an exclusive interview. “No, my polls show that I’m winning everywhere.” https://t.co/opuz0cyE7o pic.twitter.com/lM9Su9dE1u

Polls have consistently shown @BernieSanders’ general election strength against Donald Trump, even as Bernie has been vilified by Trump and the Beltway media. That durability and strength are extremely important to those of us who want to see Trump defeated ?? https://t.co/O6Q5okTHdl
