‘Fascinating poll’ shows Trump in record lead over Biden

Sky News host Paul Murray has revealed a “fascinating poll” from the Morning Consult, which has Donald Trump in a record lead over Joe Biden. The poll shows the likely Republican presidential nominee for 2024 has a five-point lead over US President Joe Biden – 45 per cent to 40 per cent – in their latest national tracking survey. It is the largest advantage they have ever measured for Trump in head-to-head polling between the two candidates, going all the way back to 2017. “If your idea is that Trump won’t win because 80 million people still hate him, well, according to those numbers, not the case,” Mr Murray said. “However, independents are desperately important in American politics – they are the difference in many swing states.”
