A year into Trump's term, voters say Biden was better

President Trump has become so politically toxic that voters now say Joe Biden " whose unpopularity forced him into early retirement " did a better job as president, according to three new polls.

Why it matters: One year in, Trump has squandered virtually every advantage that won him the presidency. The White House has nine months to turn the ship around before a potential midterm wipeout for Republicans.

Zoom in: Three national surveys point to the same alarming trend for a president who's done everything in his power to erase his predecessor's legacy.

Harvard CAPS/Harris (Jan. 28"29): Mark Penn's polling firm found that 51% of registered voters say Trump is doing a worse job than Biden, compared with 49% who say he's doing better.

Rasmussen Reports (Feb. 2"4): The Trump-friendly pollster is fending off MAGA criticism after finding that 48% of likely voters say Biden did a better job as president, compared with 40% who chose Trump. Another 8% said the two presidents have performed "about the same."

YouGov/Economist (Feb. 6"9): This survey found that 46% of U.S. adults say Trump is doing a worse job than Biden, compared with 40% who say he's doing better. Another 7% said "about the same."

Why it matters?

Yup!

Mid terms are just around the corner. Which explains, of course why Trumpy is going after changing our electoral process at the last minute in order to throw a wrench into the machinery.

It's their Hail Mary play.

Fortunately it won't pass the Senate unless they can manage to nuke the filibuster.
