Axios is reporting a “Trump Bump” in the polls for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
Indeed, this seems to be true since the 45th president has jumped up significantly in four of the most recent polls against his putatively most important opponent, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who has yet to declare his candidacy but is widely expected to do so.
The polls were Emerson, which found Donald Trump with a 30-point advantage over DeSantis (formerly 26); YouGov, with Trump ahead by 8 (up from 4); Echelon Insights, with 45 in the lead by 15 (from a mere 2); and Fox News’ first presidential primary poll, with Trump also up by 15.
Not even mentioned is the Harvard/Harris survey of just a few days earlier, which showed Trump up by 23.
Whatever skepticism we may have about polls—and, yes, it’s still very early—taken together, that’s impressive.
