Biden trails Trump amid the Israel-Hamas conflict
All the surveys we’ve mentioned above were conducted in late October and early November, and they come in the wake of tough times for Biden, as he faces severe criticism over the US reaction to the war going on between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip. That may be another reason why the results show Biden trails Trump.
In fact, thousands of protesters recently gathered in Washington to call for a ceasefire amid Israel’s relentless bombing campaign. Many criticized the US president’s response to the bloody conflict, shouting slogans such as “We say no, Genocide Joe,” and “Biden, you can’t hide; you signed off on genocide.”

Also, black voters, which represent a core Biden demographic, are now registering 22% support in Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Nevada, and Michigan for Trump, a level the Times reported was unseen in presidential politics for a GOP candidate in modern times.
