Donald Trump is back at the White House after a scary three-day stay at the Walter Reed medical complex. For the President, that’s the good news.
The bad news: his bout with the coronavirus hasn’t won him any sympathy points from the electorate. In fact, his numbers have only gotten worse. CNN’s latest national survey saw Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden expand his lead to 15 percentage points. If the polling is any indication, Trump is four weeks away from being beaten like a drum a-la Jimmy Carter in 1980.
For Biden, the last nine months have been a wild ride. There was a time not too long ago when the former vice president and three-time presidential candidate was a human seagull with a broken wing, struggling to take off. Bernie Sanders, the white-haired democratic socialist from Vermont and a leader of America’s modern-day progressive movement, looked like a shoo-in after his blowout wins in New Hampshire and Nevada.
