Trump fires off furious response to poll showing Biden gaining momentum

Former President Donald Trump slammed Fox News on Thursday after the network’s most recent poll showed him trailing President Joe Biden by two points ahead of November’s election .

The poll showed Biden leading the former president 50%-48% nationally, the first time Biden has been ahead in a Fox News poll since October 2023.

“The latest Fox News poll is TRASH!” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post. “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,” he continued.

“Fox News polls have never treated me, or MAGA, fairly! Don’t worry, we will WIN!!! Fox News should get rid of Paul Ryan, and get a new Pollster, but they won’t…” Trump said.

In March, Fox’s poll showed Trump leading Biden by five percentage points, a lead that narrowed to just one percentage point last month.

Biden is leading Trump by 15 percentage points among voters ages 65 and older and by 17 percentage points among women, according to the poll. Biden also gained support from Independent voters, who favor him by nine points — up from last month when they favored Trump by two points.

“The underlying demographic tendencies that have defined the race remain in place,” Republican pollster Daron Shaw, who conducts Fox’s surveys, said . “Biden has improved slightly with women and seniors, which keeps him afloat despite significant reductions from 2020 in support from younger voters and African Americans.”

Biden and Trump will face off in their first debate Thursday, June 27.
