    Trump Stuns In New Poll, Sweeps All the Swing States And Is Tied In State GOP Hasn’t Won In 50 Years

    Former President and presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump got some good news on Thursday, one day after a Fox News poll suggested that he was down two points to President Joe Biden nationally.

    According to an Emerson College/The Hill survey released on Thursday, Trump boasts leads over Biden in every major swing state, including Wisconsin (47%-44%), Pennsylvania (47%-45%), Michigan (46%-45%), Arizona (47%-43%), Georgia (45%-41%), and Nevada (46%-43%). What’s more is that the same poll found that Trump has managed to tie Biden in Minnesota, which no Republican has won since Richard Nixon in 1972.

    The results — which carry a margin of error of 3% — no doubt come as a relief to the Trump campaign and its principal, who has expressed frustration with the results of the Fox poll.

    “The latest Fox News poll is TRASH! They used a biased, Democrat-leaning sample of voters, polling more Biden 2020 voters than Trump 2020 voters to skew the results in favor of Crooked Joe. I am leading BIG in virtually every other poll, including in all of the key battleground states, like Wisconsin, where I just held a massive rally, and Pennsylvania, where I will be on Saturday,” wrote Trump on Truth Social Thursday. “Fox News polls have never treated me, or MAGA, fairly! Don’t worry, we will WIN!!!”

    Notably, Trump has never won the national popular vote, losing it to Hillary Clinton by 2.1% in 2016 and Biden by 4.5% in 2020. Despite his convincing win in that regard, Biden still only narrowly prevailed in 2020 thanks to his narrow margins of victory in all of the swing states polled by Emerson.

    “In our first polling in several key swing states since Trump’s conviction last month, there has been little movement, with support for both Trump and Biden staying largely consistent since November,” said Emerson College Polling executive director Spencer Kimball in a press release summarizing the results of the poll of 7,000 registered voters contacted on their cell phones or landlines between June 13 and 18.
