Biden's lead on Trump hits new 2020 high on swing in Independent voters; 18% lead on Sanders

"48% of voters said they’d vote for Joe Biden if the 2020 election were held today vs. 41% who said they’d back President Trump — a record 2020 margin."

Also has 18% lead on Sanders and voters indicate they trust Biden more to handle most policy matters.

"Biden leads Sen. Bernie Sanders by 18 points, 56% to 38%, among Democratic primary voters.

Voters trust Biden more than they trust Sanders to handle most policy matters, including the economy and jobs, trade, national security and immigration."

Sanders folks. Forgive me, but the fat lady has sung. If you want to get rid of trump, get on board the Biden train. Haven't you seen enough of the destruction to our country and people with trump in the White House? How many folks have to die before you wake up?
