Donald Trump has not received a poll boost in the first presidential election survey conducted since the failed assassination attempt on Saturday.

The poll, conducted by Morning Consult of 2,045 registered voters on Monday, reveals that Trump is leading Joe Biden by just one percentage point on 46 percent, compared to the president’s 45 percent. The poll has a margin of error of +/- two percentage points.

    Problem is everyone remembers how they didn’t get their 2k covid checks, or how their student loans weren’t forgiven.

    And every one of those stupid motherfuckers blames Biden instead of the republicans who stopped them…

      On the issue of student loan debt the president theoretically has the power to cancel federal debt unilaterally, but Biden himself is opposed to doing it which is why he’s never done it. Same reason why there’s no planned parenthood clinics on federal land or anything like that.

      If you’re only response to voters not liking you is “well they’re just stupid” then you’re gonna loose. Thats how democracy works.
