Trump Trails Possible Democrats Running In 2020 By Double-Digits - Poll

WASHINGTON (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 22nd August, 2018) US President Donald Trump would lose to many of the top Democrats who could run against him in 2020, some by double-digits, a new POLITICO/Morning Consult Poll revealed on Wednesday.

The poll found Trump trailing both former Vice President Joe Biden and Senator Bernie Sanders by about 12 points, with Biden leading Trump 43-31 percent and Sanders 44-32 percent.

Trump also trails Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, but by just four percentage points, and 36 percent of US voters are undecided in that matchup.

The poll showed that in many cases, a majority of voters are undecided when asked to choose between Trump and eight other Democrats, including several senators, the governors of New York and Montana, and other public figures.

The survey was concluded before Trump suffered a double blow on Tuesday, when his former lawyer Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations and other crimes and his ex-campaign manager Paul Manafort was convicted of financial fraud.

The poll had a margin of error of two percentage points.
