Recent polls show former President Donald Trump widening his lead over President Joe Biden nationally.
Rasmussen Report Poll released Tuesday’s results showed Trump leading Biden by 6 points in the head-to-head race, with 47 points to Biden’s 41 points. A further 9% support “other candidates” and 2% are unsure. Notably, in this scenario, Trump would have a double-digit lead over independents and a 16-point lead over the incumbent.
The survey also asked respondents who they would support in the presidential race if a third-party candidate was included. Again, in this scenario, Trump maintains a national lead with 43% support compared to 37% for Biden. Another 12% chose Robert F. Kennedy Jr., 5% supported “another candidate,” and 3% were still unsure. In this situation, Mr. Trump remains in the lead among independents, leading Mr. Biden by 10 points.
The survey was conducted among 868 likely voters between February 13 and 15, 2024, and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

Trump told Breitbart News about a possible December matchup that Biden is a “fraud,” “a scoundrel,” and a “bad guy.”
“But so far in his life, he’s always been able to convince people that he’s a really good guy. When they say, ‘Trump is a bad guy and he’s a good guy,’ I laugh. It will be. That’s the only thing he could do. All you have to do is look at his credentials. If you compare him now to who he was 15 or 20 years ago, he’s a completely different type of guy. The man cannot speak. “This guy can’t string two sentences together,” he said.

“So I’m like, I can’t believe he’s going to be the nominee. I hope so,” Trump added. “But I can’t believe he will be a candidate.”
