Several recent surveys indicate that a significant portion of voters trust former President Donald Trump more than President Joe Biden to address the key issues leading up to the November election. For instance, an NBC News poll highlighted inflation and personal finance as the primary concerns among voters. The majority of participants expressed confidence in Trump’s ability to tackle these challenges effectively compared to the current president. Specifically, when asked about managing rising costs, 52% of respondents favored Trump, while only 30% believed Biden could handle the issue better, despite inflation being a prominent issue during his presidency.
Fox News added:
“The survey also found that the crisis at the southern border is the second most important issue to voters, another area where Biden was found to trail Trump. When asked about their opinion of the president’s handling of immigration and the crisis at the border, a whopping 69% of respondents said they disapprove of Biden’s handling of the crisis.”
The April NBC poll did not ask participants about their present opinions on Trump’s management of the immigration crisis. Nonetheless, a January NBC study showed that 57% of respondents favored the ex-president’s strategy on the border matter, while only 22% supported Biden’s approach. In addition, the poll indicated that if the election took place today, Trump would only surpass Biden by 2 points, with 46% to 44%.
“The results are the most recent in a string of polling that shows voters are not only most worried about the border and rising costs, but that they trust Trump to be the best presidential candidate to handle the issues,” Fox noted. “Recent Fox News statewide surveys in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin mirrored the results that Trump is the preferred candidate to handle the issues of immigration and the economy over Biden.”
Furthermore, the findings of a recent survey conducted by Axios/Ipsos revealed that 42% of Latino voters consider Trump to be advantageous for the economy, while only 20% share the same perspective regarding Biden. In terms of immigration, 29% of Latino respondents expressed a positive opinion about Trump, in contrast to 22% who favored Biden. NBC’s Steve Kornacki and Meet the Press host Kristen Welker expressed their astonishment while discussing these outcomes on Sunday.
“We talk about the erosion for Biden, and now you start to see it. Look at these numbers,” Kornacki said while reacting to the latest survey.
