Hold onto your hats, folks! Former President Donald Trump is back and better than ever, according to the latest RealClearPolitics (RCP) polling average. That’s right, Trump has overtaken President Joe Biden by a hair-thin margin of 0.4 percentage points. The RCP average, which combines multiple polls and is about as reliable as Trump’s distinctive hair, is showing Trump with 44.8% and Biden lagging behind at 44.4%.
But let’s not get too carried away with this news. After all, individual polls can be as different as night and day, depending on who’s asking the questions and how many people they’re asking. But hey, who needs facts when you’ve got a juicy headline, right?
This sudden turn of events comes as no surprise to those of us who have been paying attention. The Biden administration has been facing more challenges than a bull in a china shop. From economic concerns to foreign policy issues and, oh yeah, that pesky little pandemic, Biden seems to be drowning in a sea of problems.
It’s clear that Biden’s support is wavering, especially among minority voters. If he can’t win back their trust by 2024, it’ll be another blow to the Democrats’ declining popularity with the very people they claim to champion. The New York Times even reported that Biden’s lead over Trump among non-white voters has dwindled to a measly 53% to 28%. Ouch!
But hey, don’t count Biden out just yet! The New York Times also suggests that he could potentially win back some of those lost voters. Of course, that would require him to actually do something to address the concerns of non-white voters instead of just taking their support for granted. But hey, who needs actions when you’ve got hope?

So what’s causing this decline in Biden’s support? Well, for one, he’s not exactly a spring chicken anymore. And let’s not forget about the skyrocketing inflation rates and those other pesky socio-economic challenges that hit non-white voters harder than their white counterparts. It’s just a shame that Biden seems more interested in pleasing his liberal buddies than actually helping the people who need it most.
And let’s not forget about the issues that resonate less with Black and Hispanic voters, like abortion and threats to democracy. Surprise, surprise, they tend to be more conservative than Biden’s white supporters. Go figure!
But perhaps the most interesting trend of all is the emerging education gap among non-white voters. Biden may have a comfortable lead among non-white college graduates, but it starts to look a little shaky when you consider those without a four-year degree. Maybe Trump’s conservative populism is starting to make some waves among working-class non-white voters. It’s about time someone shook up the status quo!
In the end, this polling shift doesn’t mean that Trump is guaranteed to make a triumphant return. But it does highlight the growing dissatisfaction with Biden and the Democrats. If they don’t take heed of these warning signs, they might just find themselves in the same boat as Walter Mondale in 1984. And no one wants that, do they? Well, except maybe Trump. But that’s a story for another day.
