A CNN host appeared visibly disturbed when reporting on new polling showing former President Donald Trump decimating Joe Biden in two key swing states.
The host of CNN’s “Early Start,” Kasie Hunt, looked shocked while reporting that Trump is leading Biden by 10 points in Michigan and five points in Georgia.
These are the two states that Biden won in 2020 but went to Trump in 2016 before he ultimately won the election.
“The news is not great for President Biden,” Hunt said as she reported on results showing Trump leading Biden 49% to 44% in Georgia and 50% to 40% in Michigan.
“Trump’s margin over Biden is significantly boosted in both states by people who say they did not vote in 2020,” Hunt added.
“These less engaged voters favored Trump by 26 points in Georgia and by 40 points in Michigan,” she said.

According to the poll, just 35% of Michigan voters and 39% in Georgia approve of Biden’s job performance.
Voters in both states say Biden’s policies are not what they seek in a president.
69% of voters in Michigan and 66% in Georgia also had negative views on Biden’s stamina and sharpness.
The poll, conducted from November 30th to December 7th, surveyed 1,197 registered voters in Michigan and 1,068 registered voters in Georgia, with margins of error of plus or minus 3.4% and 3.3%, respectively.
President Trump lost Michigan by 2.8% and Georgia by 0.3% in 2020.
However, the recent polling shows voters are sick of Biden and are now returning to Trump.
When automotive companies began protesting against Biden earlier this year, Trump was given an opening.
Trump appealed to blue-collar workers in Michigan, which terrified the Biden and the Democrats.
The former president also faces a criminal trial in Georgia against a Democratic district attorney, which has done nothing more than rally his base.
Caroline Bye, a pollster and vice president at Morning Consult, said:
“Right now, Biden is not getting any credit for work he’s done on the economy.”
“Almost twice as many voters in the swing states are saying that Bidenomics is bad for the economy, as opposed to good for the economy, which is a really startling fact if you’re the Biden campaign.”
