Talk show host Jimmy Kimmel appeared perplexed after polls showed that Donald Trump was leading Joe Biden in several crucial swing states.
The confused host asked, “How could this be?”
During Wednesday’s episode of his ABC show, Kimmel expressed his dismay, claiming many ex-associates of Trump have spoken out against him, concluding the former president “doesn’t even lead in a poll of people who worked for him.”
The remarks were sparked by a Monday poll by the Wall Street Journal that showed Trump polling ahead of President Biden in the following states:
Arizona
Georgia
Michigan
Nevada
North Carolina
Pennsylvania
However, it was too much for Kimmel.
Watch
Breitbart News reported that the poll revealed a host of positives for Trump.
Trump leads Biden in six of the seven top swing states.
The former president’s lead reverses Biden’s 2020 success in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia, and Arizona.
- Pennsylvania: Trump 47 percent (+3) Biden 44 percent
- Nevada: Trump 48 percent (+4) Biden 44 percent
- Michigan: Trump 48 percent (+3) Biden 45 percent
- North Carolina: Trump 49 percent (+6) Biden 43 percent
- Arizona: Trump 47 percent (+5) Biden 42 percent
- Wisconsin: Biden 46 percent (=) Trump 46 percent
- Georgia: Trump 44 percent (+1) Biden 43 percent
“Overall, the poll shows substantial unhappiness with Biden among voters who will have the most influence in the outcome of the election, as expanded one-party dominance in states has left just a few as politically competitive,” the outlet reported.
Trump also has a significant lead over Biden in six out of eight issues polled by the Journal:
- Economy: Trump 54 percent (+20) Biden 34 percent
- Border Security: Trump 52 percent (+20) Biden 32 percent
- Protecting Democracy: Biden 43% (+1) Trump 42 percent
- Abortion: Biden 45 percent (+12) Trump 33 percent
- Inflation and Rising Costs: Trump 53 percent (+20) Biden 33 percent
- The mental and physical fitness needed to be President: Trump 48 percent (+20) Biden 28 percent
- Ukraine/Russia War: Trump 46 percent (+9) Biden 37 percent
- Israel/Hamas war: Trump 45 percent (+14) Biden 31 percent
