Jimmy Kimmel doesn’t understand why Trump is beating Biden in polls: ‘How is this possible?’

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel is perplexed as to why Donald Trump is beating Joe Biden in the polls in several key swing states.

States that will be crucial to the outcome of the 2024 presidential election.

“How can this be?” he asks.

Jimmy Kimmel is angry

Kimmel’s monologue on Wednesday night focused on many of Trump’s former aides speaking out against him. These individuals led him to joke that the former president “isn’t even leading in a poll of people who worked for him.”

The host said he got a “headache” after seeing polls released by the Wall Street Journal on Monday. Those surveys show that Trump has a lead over Biden in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

Politics reports“Former President Donald Trump has a slight lead or is tied with President Joe Biden in seven swing states, according to new Wall Street Journal polls released Tuesday evening.”

The story continues:

Trump’s lead in six of the seven competitive states ranges from a six percentage point lead in North Carolina to just one percentage point in Georgia. Respondents surveyed were asked who they would support in a duel between the two. Biden is tied with Trump in Wisconsin, with 46 percent support each.

The margin of error for each of the states was plus or minus 4 percentage points. The poll was conducted by phone and text from March 17 to 24 and included 600 registered voters from Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

Biden won six of the states in the 2020 presidential election, with only North Carolina going to Trump.

Compare Trump’s approval rating to Biden’s

While it might confuse Jimmy Kimmel, it’s not much of a mystery why Trump is ahead of Biden overall, not to mention in swing states.

The economy was better under Trump than under Biden. Moreover, many other things were better under Trump than under Biden.

And apparently many people think so. Just look at the approval ratings.

More from Politico: “The survey also asked about both Biden and Trump’s approval ratings during his time in office. On average, respondents had a more favorable view of Trump’s time in office, with 51 percent saying they approved of the job he was doing, compared to 38 percent for Biden.”

This may be a mystery to elites like Jimmy Kimmel. It’s no mystery to ordinary Americans.
