President Donald Trump trails presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden by 14 percentage points in the first New York Times/Sienna College poll of the 2020 election cycle, the Daily Beast website reports today (June 24, 2020).
The numbers reveal the president is in deep trouble -- they show that his personal popularity has plummeted as he's failed to get a grip on the novel coronavirus pandemic and following the angry and militaristic response to police-brutality protests.
Nearly three-fifths of voters surveyed said they disapproved of Trump's handling of the pandemic and only a third said the government should prioritize restarting the economy even if it exacerbates public-health risks.
Overall, the poll shows Biden on 50% of the national vote, compared to to just 36% for Trump.
