Highly respected pollster John McLaughlin recently stated that he is expecting an “electoral landslide” in favor of Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election.
This statement comes as President Joe Biden has continually lost approval across the nation, and “Bidenomics” has proved to be a disaster for the middle class.
In a recent interview, McLaughlin pointed out that as Trump has been hit with more legal opposition, his numbers in the polls have risen as well. (Trending: Renown Doctor Obliterates COVID Vaccine)
“Trump’s right—the RNC needs to shut down these debates because they’re an infomercial against Trump and they seem totally irrelevant.”

“We see, apparently, every time the Department of Justice or a state left-wing district attorney indicts Donald Trump, his poll numbers go up,” Tennessee Star’s Michael Patrick Leahy said.
“I’m looking at the Morning Consult poll today. Just came out: Trump 61; DeSantis 13; Haley 7; Ramaswamy 7; Pence 5; Christie 3; Scott 1; Burgum 1. Trump by 48 points.”
“Morning Consult has Trump and Biden tied, but I’ve seen Trump up 9 in the Washington Post poll; and Trump up 3 in another. The polls say it’s looking good for Donald J. Trump,” he emphasized.
McLaughlin responded, saying, “Yeah, I wish the election was tomorrow – and probably so do a lot of Americans, because when you refer to that Morning Consult poll as a tie? It’s a poll of 5,000 registered voters, not likely voters.”
“And the Trump voters are the most intense to come out. So we’re leading in the RealClearPolitics average of national polls.” (Trending: Democrats Prioritize Illegals Over U.S. Military Veterans)
“We never saw this, by the way, in 2020 or 2016. We were, we were never ahead in the national popular vote, and we just got a national poll back last Wednesday of our own of 1,000 likely voters – people who tell us that they’re going to vote, that’s modeled after the 2020 turnout that has 46 percent telling us they voted for Biden in 2020 and only 42 percent saying they voted for Trump.”
“And Trump is winning that poll, 47 to 43 over Joe Biden, which means there’s a 2020 Biden voter, who’s now a 2024 Trump voter, and Trump is winning in the national popular vote.”
“We got a poll yesterday for Newt Gingrich that we do work for, and Joe Biden has a 59 percent job disapproval.”
“I mean, the voters in America are not stupid, they’re smart, and they’re saying, ‘Trump was a good president. I was paying 2 a gallon for gas. I could go to the supermarket and for a family of four. You know, my food would cost us for that trip, maybe $200, $300. Now it’s $400, $500.'”
“And they’re being told by Bidenomics is good. They don’t believe it. And this poll, when we asked Bidenomics, they had a 24 favorable, 47 unfavorable among all voters – and that’s what Biden’s basing his campaign on.
“And they’re [voters] telling us the economy is getting worse, not better, 67 to 25. In our poll, they’re saying that the country’s on the wrong track, 69 percent.”
“And now they’re trying to ruin him financially in New York with the Democrat supporter of Joe Biden, Letitia James, trying to basically take away his whole business, his multi-billion dollar empire. She’s trying to gut it. And it looks political to the vast majority of Americans.”
“So he’s going up in the polls because the voters are looking at this, and they’re saying, ‘Why are these other Republicans bickering instead of supporting him?’ I mean, if you can indict your leading political opponent, there’s no reason for the Republican Party to exist.”
“The RNC has not come to bat for him; the Republican National Committee – they haven’t put a lawyer in any of these courtrooms trying to defend Donald Trump. I mean, what is the point of having an opposition party? If your leading candidate can go to jail and, and mark my words, they want to put Donald Trump in jail.”
Leahy responded, saying, “And John, of course, the president is not elected by a national popular vote. The president is elected by the electoral college, meaning there are 50 – well, 51 if you had District of Columbia – separate races. And in those races, it’s looking, I think, even better for Donald Trump in a straight Trump v. Biden matchup. Do I have that right?”
“Yes, because it would be an electoral landslide because when you look at it, due to the census, there’s a little more electoral vote our way,” McLaughlin said.
“But if you look at the toss-up states from last time and you say, ‘This means he’s going to win Wisconsin, Michigan’ – that’s why I went to Detroit last week to stand up for union workers, going to lose their jobs in China.”
“Arizona has 11 electoral votes. Nevada 6 – we could win that. That was close last time. We’ll win Georgia because they changed the election law to require a voter ID, not just for in-person, but also for absentee – there’re 16 electoral votes there. We got a shot at Pennsylvania in spite of their trying to manipulate the mail-in votes. There’s 19 electoral votes there. And Ohio has 7 – Ohio, we’re gonna win.”
“But there are 77 electoral votes that would switch.”
“So we would go from last time, 232 electoral votes – we’d be at 304 already.”
