How does this compare to prior results?

I believe last was Biden +4

No, you're probably thinking of their early April poll that was Biden+1 with adults, +4 with RV.  Last week's was Trump+2 with adults, Biden+1 with RV.  (This week's is tied in both populations.)

The Trump+2 with adults was ABC/Ipsos, not Reuters/Ipsos.

Maybe you should check before doubling down next time:

I don’t remember there being one last week

Not sure why Biden decided to run again. Literally underperforming downballot by double digits at this moment in several states.

Ego and denial

Eventually but not this year

Interesting Nugget out of the Florida CBS Poll:

Trump leads Biden among Florida Hispanics 52-47. In 2020 Trump lost Florida Hispanics to Biden 47-52.

This really suggests to me that Trump has a better than even shot carrying Miami-Dade County because if he carries FL Latinos Statewide he surely is going to carry them in Miami-Dade.

If there’s going to be a ground zero for Hispanic shifts to GOP, the place it would happen would be in Miami-Dade county. I was recently in the Miami area and the vibe there is not DEM conducive.

Well, it's a 10-Point Hispanic Shift Statewide in favor of Trump compared to 2020 FL Exits when he lost the Hispanic Vote by 5 to Biden assuming this Poll is accurate. That's bound to have some impact in a County that has a 70% Hispanic Population.

No way.

How in the hell has Hurt gained in the polls after being accused - more or less - of accepting a bribe?

Or will it trend red, or become a sort of mega NC?

[Democrats' impeachments of Trump (which were clearly justified) and Republican's discussion of maybe impeaching Biden (which was clearly frivolous).]

What a pity this country has become when the opposition party resorting to impeachment has become a norm.

What choice did Democrats have after his outrageous crimes? You're not seriously suggesting that either of his impeachments were the wrong response?

My comment is not exclusive for Democrats alone, same goes to Republicans as well who were trying to impeach Biden. It’s a shame that the congressional dysfunction will most likely become an endless cycle of retaliation by the opposing party to the POTUS, whoever he/she is, wherein they should be allocating their time and resources to issues which should benefit the american people in general. Like who would want to sit and watch fox news and cnn coverage about impeachment 90% of the time?

But in saying that, you're equating Democrats' impeachments of Trump (which were clearly justified) and Republican's discussion of maybe impeaching Biden (which was clearly frivolous).

If Trump [god forbid] returns to the White House and never commits any impeachable crimes, then no, he won't be impeached. If he does, he will be. You can at least count on Democrats to only use impeachment when forced to, not for frivolous reasons.

That premise alone makes me believe all impeachments are politically motivated, regardless of the party. Heck there was even talks of impeachment in 2017 when Trump was barely 6 months in office.
 
That's the elephant in the room that everybody seems to be nonchalant about.

So you don't disagree that the Ukraine and January 6 scandals were impeachment-worthy, you just think hypothetically Democrats might also float a frivolous impeachment at some point? That's a take, I guess...

Metsola meeting with Meloni (who is the most significant far right leader in Europe) and Weber courting them too shows that the EPP may want to end the Grand Coalition in favour of a right-wing coalition. EPP also met with Le Pen to potentially discuss RN joining forces with them if the French "republican" right disintegrates with them. It won't happen I think but it shows how mentalities are changing.

Would almost certainly lead to some EPP parties leaving EPP

EDIT: Apologies for quoting a post from 2023...

The only way I could see it happening would be if Trump withdrew his endorsement, which is unlikely but not impossible because he hates being associated with losers.
