JUST IN: Former Vice Pres. Joe Biden leads Pres. Trump among all adults by 14 points, 55-41%, in a new ABC News/WaPo poll, and by 10 points among registered voters.

Bolstered by a strong economy, Donald Trump reached the highest job approval rating of his career in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll and runs competitively for reelection against four of five possible Democratic contenders. Yet he remains broadly unpopular across personal and professional measures, marking his vulnerabilities in the 2020 election.

Even while it’s up, Trump’s historically low approval rating makes him vulnerable in the 2020 elections – but hardly a pushover. Among all adults , Joe Biden leads Trump by 14 points. But that narrows among the other four Democrats tested against Trump in this poll – an 8-point lead for Kamala Harris, a slight 7 points for Elizabeth Warren, 6 for Bernie Sanders and 4 for Pete Buttigieg. The latter two don’t reach statistical significance.

The differences between all adults and registered voters mark a longtime GOP advantage; their support groups are more apt to be signed up to vote. Just 64% of 18- to 29-year-olds, a broadly Democratic group, are registered, vs. 92% of those 50 and older. And only 71% of nonwhites are registered, including 61% of Hispanics , vs. 89% of whites.

In another measure, 48% of adults say there’s no chance they’d consider Trump against any Democratic candidate. It’s 46% among currently registered voters. Views on"Medicare for all" in health care further mark the partisan gap in policy preferences. Fifty-two percent of Americans support a government-run, taxpayer-funded insurance program like Medicare for all people. That includes 77% of Democrats, declining to 48% of independents and then dropping further to 22% of Republicans.

Canada 🇨🇦 Healthcare funded through taxes - Doctor’s visit $0.00, Cost to have a baby $0.00, Open heart surgery, knee or hip replacement $0.00, cancer treatments $0.00 or and one more one yr maternity leave, job guaranteed when you return work, somewhere around 60% of salary

Who are the incompetent and inept taking your polls? Like Quinnipiac they are Millenial, indoctrinated snowflakes who know nothing.

I’m with that. As a small business owner healthcare costs me $1,000 a WEEK for my little family of 3. Between premiums, co-pays, deductibles and necessities that are not covered, That’s what it costs.

JoyAnnReid The 28% that have “cultural anxiety” and Trump’s whistles gives them comfort and don’t care if he’s presidential or not. endoutweighsthemeans

JoyAnnReid Only 65%?

Deplorables at 28%?! Inject these polls into my veins! Bring on 2020

I still think you would look good in an orange suit😁

DoNotVoteForDonaldTrump

28% feeling like Lisa Simpson on cough syrup...

Trump supporters think it's important for him to get a second term cuz they are morons they got only 2 brain cells and they both are fighting for oxygen

Once the election is over... your 20 point Democrat bias will be exposed!

And 14 points more likely to lose by 14 points

ABC's anti Trump campaign is painful. We don't pay ABC for left wing views. Keep it up & LNP will stop paying you.

JoyAnnReid That should be 100%...There should not be a single human that thinks trump has not acted in a manner that is unpresidential...not one! To many times to choose from...

But wait a minute. ONE IN FOUR?!? We are doomed and deserve it

Perhaps the DNC platform should focus on balancing the budget instead of giving away everything for free.

An ABC poll? In ABC poll could find a ham sandwich guilty because it does not have enough ham in it! What a joke!

Make a real poll and you will see otherwise. I rather have a President offend a few crybabies than one who betrays his country like Obama did.

Abc hasn’t proved themselves very reliable lately. I bet this is a rigged poll, after all ABC declared Crooked Hillary a winner with 10% of the votes counted in 2016 and lied every day about the Mueller investigation. I am calling BS on this poll.

You all don't get it. It doesn't matter 2 the religious right as long as they get their judges. They fear most the wrath of God if we as a nation 'turn our backs on Him' which is twisted reasoning. Then there're the ones who feel left behind, afraid & unheard. We have to listen.

JoyAnnReid Then why tf are people MAGAing?

He is a disgrace to the Office of the Presidency , a disgrace to the USA. He has made the U.S a punchline. It’s pretty bad when Nixon looks good compared to him.

Those 28% are delusional.

JoyAnnReid 'Just' 28%?!?! Good Lord, these people are stupid!

JoyAnnReid Are you going to report this on live TV? Do your job!!

Trump is a direct reflection of the people who voted for him... Trump is a POS. NuffSaid

they been watching to much fake news what's one thing hes done thsts against the law

OVERALL JOB APPROVAL NEGATIVE, realDonaldTrump HAS ACTED UNPRESIDENTIAL, CONGRESS WILL NOT IMPEACH TRUMP SO WHY BOTHER. LET THE POLLS IN 2020 DO THE TALKING. AndrewYang Yang2020vision

Fake news nobody believes this nonsense

Remember when HRC was leading by 60 point the morning of the elections? Most do!!!! Stop your clueless polling!!

JoyAnnReid That’s a lotta messed up people still. 28%? 😱

JoyAnnReid Yeah!!! The polls tell the story!!! Just like 2016!!!!

JoyAnnReid says realDonaldTrump ‘s net approval has improved from -24% last July to 9% this June (despite a verified rape claim and imprisoned children). If the rate of approval continues (and it will, he is fully normalized) he will be +6% above water five months before the election.

JoyAnnReid 44/53 (-9) is a bit better than his polling average 42.3/52.5 (-10.2), so I don't know what the hats on here are whining about.

JoyAnnReid Good lord who ARE those 28%?!?!

Just out of curiosity, what are the approval ratings for how the Democrats have conducted themselves since Prez Trump took office? Guarantee it’s in single digits unless fake news uses illegals to boost up their polls!

According to our liar in chief, these are fake numbers.

Wasn’t supposed to be a on that

The 28% that live in trailer parks of America.

Who was polled; a random group of Antifa members? After all the fake polls in 2016, I don't believe any polls.

JoyAnnReid none of this matters. what matters is Tangibles2020

JoyAnnReid Here’s why the 28% think Trump’s just fiiiiine.

JoyAnnReid “Just 28%”. That’s bananas.

That’s what you said the first time Donald Trump will never be president 2016

JoyAnnReid

You guys, please remain levelheaded whilst sharing your opinions.

JoyAnnReid Who are the 28%? Smh

JoyAnnReid If it WALKS LIKE A DUCK..... and TALKS LIKE A DUCK...... guess what?....

Just the economy! Only! And really all Americans have done it! However more and more and more automation is coming!

51% believe in Trump's handling of the economy. The other 49% were too busy counting pennies to take the survey!

Weekend night reporting.......

For as good as the economy is, 51 percent is pitiful. I also have a hard time believing with his poll numbers, that more people don't want at least an impeachment inquiry. Do they know the difference when they answer these questions, between just impeachment, and an inquiry?

But you're 'fake news'!

He doesn’t DO anything except lay more tariffs on us! How can people possibly be happy about that? 🤦🏻‍♀️ Because you still have your 2 crappy paying jobs? 😳 Well good for you!! 🙄

MORE: His approval ratings across eight other issues all are substantially lower, ranging from 42% on handling taxes to 29% on global warming.

And the Epstein story hasn't even factored into the polls yet.

Wow. The trump trolls are out in force aren’t they? 200% of normal people want trump gone. He’s an abomination.

Lol the weird dems are creepy

Your polls. 😂😂😂! Let me know how they work out for you.

Your polls. 😂😂😂! Let me know how they work out for you.

Big difference between supporters & registered voters.

FAKE NEWS! Noone believes u anymore

Trump has secured his power and there won't be another president. Watch and see. I hate this.

Add another for extremely important Trump wins, in turn doesnt allow any of these maniacs to ruin our country

MORE: 48% of adults, and 46% of registered voters, say there’s no chance they’d consider Pres. Trump against any Democratic candidate.

MORE: Moderates favor Joe Biden over Pres. Trump by a 29-point margin, and Biden enjoys a 17-point lead among college-educated white women, according to a new News/WaPo poll.

MORE: That lead narrows for other four Democrats tested against Pres. Trump in this poll, and tightens to virtual or actual dead heats among registered voters.

MORE: Pres. Trump has been at majority disapproval continuously for his first two and a half years in office, a record for any president in modern polling.
