“The mainstream media polls — they’re not asking these questions at all, they’re not acknowledging that this ever happened,” John McLaughlin, a pollster for the Trump 2020 campaign told “Just the News AM” television show on Tuesday. “I mean yesterday, Joe Biden was out someplace getting a milkshake. And they asked him what flavor he was getting, they didn’t ask him about, you know, ‘Did you take a cut from this Chinese money that Hunter Biden got according to these emails?’ They won’t even acknowledge that the hard drive, that’s clearly Hunter Biden’s, that he signed a receipt for this now out there, is a factor.”

“First of all, Joe Biden’s not that popular,” McLaughlin said. “Our negatives were as high as Clinton, and they became less at some point. The difference now is, as of today, the president has a 49% job approval, according to Rasmussen Reports.”
The last two presidents who were reelected were in the same range as Trump is now, McLaughlin noted. Barack Obama in 2012 “had 51% on Election Day … but in fact, at this point in time, two weeks out, he had a 48%,” said the pollster. “He didn’t break 50 until after Hurricane Sandy. George W. Bush on the day he was reelected had 51% job approval and was reelected [with] 51%. President Trump is there at 49, but two weeks to go, and Joe Biden is really vulnerable because of this corruption charges mess.”
