The same poll, taken again in late October and a third time in January, showed Trump gaining two points (49%) and Biden losing two (45%). In the latest poll, released Sunday, Trump held steady at 49% and Biden dropped another two points to 43%.<\/p>\n<p>According to the poll, Trump keeps his lead (42%) over Biden (33%) even if independent candidates RFK Jr. (16%) and Cornel West (4%) \u2014 and Green Party candidate Jill Stein (3%) are accounted for as well.<\/p>\n<p>Another devastating blow came when respondents were asked whether Trump\u2019s presidency had been a success (55%) or a failure (44%). Those numbers have more than reversed since the same question was asked in mid-January of 2021, when 55% said Trump\u2019s presidency had been a failure and just 41% said it was a success.<\/p>\n<p>Biden\u2019s score on the same question was equally disappointing: just 39% said his presidency has been a success \u2014 down from 41% in January of 2022 \u2014 and 61% called it a failure (up from 57%).<\/p>\n<p>The president also lost ground with regard to the ongoing Israel-Hamas war, with just 28% of respondents saying that they approved of how he has handled it (down from 34% in late January) and 71% (up from 65%) disapproving.<\/p>\n<p>The poll took data from just over 1200 respondents over the age of 18, who answered questions from April 18-23, 2024. The margin of error is +\/- 3.4, with a confidence level of 95%.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/new-cnn-poll-spells-likely-disaster-for-biden-as-election-looms-nearer\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Biden\u2019s declining poll numbers are hardly a surprise.
