– Trump, DeSantis Beat Biden In ABC/WaPo Poll As Joe’s Approval Hits Record Low:
A new ABC News/Washington Post poll has thrown a big splash of cold water on President Biden’s nascent re-election bid — showing him losing in match-ups with either Donald Trump or Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.
In two 2024 matchups, here’s how things stack up among Americans who say they would “definitely” or “probably” vote for a given candidate:
- Trump 44% Biden 38%. Undecideds lean Trump 49-42.
- DeSantis 42%, Biden 37%. Undecideds lean DeSantis 48-41
That’s not all: Biden’s approval rating took a 6-point dive from its February level to reach an all-time low of just 36%. Against data going all the way back to Truman, that’s the worst score for any first-term president at this point in his term. Three predecessors who were in same ballpark — Ford (40%), Carter (37%) and Trump (39%) — failed to win second terms.
