A new CNN poll published on Sunday places Former President Donald Trump far ahead of President Joe Biden, particularly if third-party candidates, such as Robert Kennedy Jr., are factored in.

CNN polled 1,212 adults between April 18-23, asking them numerous questions about political policy, and their preferred president.
The new poll showed that 43 percent would support Biden, compared to 49 percent for Trump, with four percent choosing “other,” three percent who would not vote at all, and one percent with no opinion.
When third-party candidates, such as Robert F Kennedy Jr., Cornell West, and Jill Stein are factored in, Biden’s numbers dropped even further.
In that case, only 33 percent of voters would support Biden, while 42 percent would support Trump, giving him a full nine-point lead over the incumbent.
Kennedy received sixteen percent in the poll, with West receiving four percent, and three percent supporting Stein.
The poll not only showed that the majority of registered voters are more likely to support Trump than Biden, but also revealed that support for Biden has been waning steadily in recent months.
Past polls show that in a two-candidate race, Trump has stayed at the same approval rating since October, but Biden has seen a steady decline.
In October, Biden was polling at 45 percent but has since dropped by two points.
Over the same time period, the multi-candidate race shows Trump gaining one point and Biden dropping by two.
The same poll showed that 61 percent of voters see Biden’s presidency as a failure.
The poll also included a slew of questions on various political topics.
It showed that the vast majority, 71 percent, of voters oppose the war in Israel, and that 66 percent are dissatisfied with the state of the economy.
Biden’s poll numbers have been extremely poor in recent months, with one Gallup poll, published just days before CNN’s marking a historic low for the president’s approval rating.
That poll not only marked Biden’s lowest approval rating to date, it also marked the lowest approval for any president in recent history at this stage of the presidency.
The answer to a question often depends upon how the question is written and how it is asked. Since CNN is well to the left, one can only think that Biden’s approval rating would be substantially lower had it not been CNN asking the question.
It frightens me to think what the dems have in store to steal the election this time.
