What's so scary about that poll isn't shown here but is listed in the article: Independents consistently rate Trump ahead of Biden in trustworthiness, has a good moral compass, cares about people like me....

If this is the case, then Biden is toast. He isn't resonating with people and being a "good, honest person" isn't working for him, for whatever reason.

Maybe Biden is toast and maybe the polls are toast. Those responses (taking your word for it, haven't read the article myself) are so far beyond counterintuitive ... I don't know, maybe we're asking the wrong questions here, this is weird.

The MAGA reasons for liking Trump may be crazy but at some level they make a kind of perverse sense. This makes /no/ sense.

This is not me being optimistic, I'm plenty pessimistic; just -- something doesn't add up.

Not buying it. Every single day brings new proof that Trump isn't trustworthy, has no moral compass and doesn't give a damn about anyone beside himself. Ever get something in the mail from the party of one of the candidates in any election running? The preface to the question is always something that will skew the answer one way or other. And there is never a follow-up to the question.
