A recent Quinnipiac Poll of hypothetical matchups in the 2020 presidential race has been the source of a lot of analysis and, more to my liking, hilarity. The high level results show Trump losing, no matter the opponent:
Biden 53, Trump 40
Sanders 51, Trump 42
Harris 49, Trump 41
Warren 49, Trump 42
Buttigieg 47, Trump 42
Booker 47, Trump 42
In summary, Trump gets 41 and the Democrat gets just under or just over 50, depending on name recognition. The remarkably static results have inspired wits to speculate on additional races that Quinnipiac neglected to poll:
Stomach Virus 48, Trump 41
Ring Around the Collar 49, Trump 41
Waxy Yellow Buildup 50, Trump 41
&c, &c, &c--I'm indebted to the Twitterverse. Relatedly, my 8-year-old told me after the last day of school that a boy in her class likes Trump. When I remained silent, she continued, "So, I'm like, dude, either you should stay in second grade or else it's Opposite Day."
