A New Washington Post, ABC news poll has come out that has, uh, basically sent the Democratic Party into panic mode because this new a b ABC news poll shows that President Biden is absolutely tanking just about across the board, whether it's in head-to-head matchups with Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis. This particular poll shows Biden losing by six points and five points respectively to Trump and DeSantis. That's a, a quite a reversal from what the polls were just a week ago. So that's a little shocking on the handling of the economy. Majority of voters say they prefer Trump over Joe Biden Biden's favorability rating has dropped down to 36%, a new low for President Biden. And not to mention the poll also found that a majority of Democrats, including a majority of Democrat leaning independence, won. Want anyone else other than Joe Biden to be the Democratic Party's nominee for 2024.
So should the Democrats be panicking right now, should this poll be sending them into a tizzy wondering what the hell they're gonna do in 2024? No, but also, yes. Let me explain what I mean. The reason I say no, this poll shouldn't send Democrats into a frenzy right now is because as of right now, this poll is the outlier. Like I just said a week ago, all these poll numbers were reversed, especially the head-to-head matchups, Biden versus Trump and Biden versus DeSantis. Last week he was beating DeSantis by nine points. He was beating Trump by seven. So a sudden flip like that, nah, that doesn't seem quite right. Now to mention the fact that, as I said, this is currently an outlier poll, which means we do not have any other polls to back up this data or to even show a trend in data.
So that's very important to keep in mind. We also have to keep in mind the fact that this poll has a margin of error of plus or minus three and a half percent. As I've repeatedly told you, pollsters are taught anything with a margin of error greater than 3% is considered unreliable. This one has a three and a half percent, therefore take it with a grain of salt. So what can we extrapolate then from this poll? The answer really is that Biden does have problems and you would be a fool to think that you can dismiss all of this. So that's why I say no, we shouldn't put too much stock in this poll, but also we kind of have to, because we have to acknowledge that Biden is not a perfect candidate. Biden is up against an American public. That, to be perfectly honest with you as a whole, is pretty stupid for a majority of people out there in the public to say that Donald Trump handled the economy better than President Biden.
That's just plain stupid and it's because as I've told you for years now, the American public has an attention span of about 30 seconds. They have already forgotten most of the horrible things that Donald Trump did to the economy that was pushing our nation into a recession before Covid even happened. Before Covid even happened. Go back and look at Ring of Fire videos from the beginning of the year 2020, talking about the fact that economists say a recession might be six months away. That was before Covid happened because of Trump's policies. Now, COVID of course, exa exacerbated that. Then we also have the fact that, hey, but fair and President Biden's done a good job. Look at all these jobs we've brought back. Yeah, most of the jobs we've brought back were just that they were jobs that were lost due to Covid.
