He’s down seven points to former vice president Joe Biden in RealClearPolitics’ average of national polls, and trails Sens. Over and over, Democrats beat Trump in national polls from reliable, nonpartisan pollsters. Biden, for example, has ranged from 47 to 57 percent against Trump, while Trump has only ranged from 38 to 45 percent. Across the three sets of national polls, Trump has ranged from 38 to 48 percent, with three-quarters of his results putting him at 43 percent or lower. Trump allies will no doubt point out that Trump’s ceiling in the polls at this point in 2016 was similarly low.
