Trump having proclaimed a 306-232 victory a "Landslide!" notwithstanding, it's easy to see why most Americans approve of the President seven months after 51.33% of voters elected him.... All in all, the tide has turned, and even the Democrat polls that many Americans have been duped into believing, are now showing a tight race between Joe Biden and President Trump (they showed a double digit lead for Biden just a month ago).
But from a new CNN/SSRS poll. it's clear Biden isn’t going to simply sail into the White House, like all his Democrat darlings in the media seemed to believe:
Across 15 battleground states, the survey finds Biden has the backing of 49% of registered voters, while Trump lands at 48%. Note that because Republicans rarely respond to these polls (especially a CNN one), we could well be seeing a double digit lead for Trump over Biden. Perhaps 60% Trump to 40% Biden.
Note also that this is before the debates, which are looming to be disastrous for Biden (if he even shows up for them).

UPDATE:
President Joe Biden has seen historic growth in stocks since winning the election, with markets outperforming the gains of his predecessors going back to Harry Truman.
Since Election Day, the S&P 500 has climbed 26% through Friday, making it the best 220-day stretch for stocks after a presidential election since World War II, according to investment research firm CFRA.
The only administration going back to World War II to come close to Biden’s gains was that of John F. Kennedy, who saw an 18.3% rise in the same time span.
I've always been convinced that presidents have limited impact on the stock market, and some are far more apt to bray they're responsible when it soars, but its record climb certainly doesn't accrue to a president's detriment.
