Subject: The Trump Bump Has Vanished
As the democrats continue with their circular firing squad, the latest post-debate polling shows little to no change in candidate preference (Biden left, Trump right):

50%-48% NPR/Marist
44%-42% GW/YouGov
47%-46% Split Ticket/DfP
47%-46% Clarity
50%-50% Emerson
46%-46% WaPo
42%-43% R & W
42%-43% Bendixen/Amandi
41%-42% Big Village
42%-44% Morning Consult
40%-43% Econ/YouGov 1/

A new national NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll finds "Biden actually gained a point since last month’s survey, which was taken before the debate. In this poll, he leads Trump 50% to 48% in a head-to-head matchup. But Biden slips when third-party options are introduced, with Trump holding the slightest advantage with 43% to 42%.

Contrary to what some here have insisted, there is a suggestion that Project 2025 is hurting Trump with voters.

Finally, no other mainstream democrat polls better than Biden against Trump. Vice President Harris gets 50% compared to 49% for Trump, California Gov. Gavin Newsom matches Biden at 50% to 48% over Trump. And Trump and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer are tied at 49% to 49%.

So a Harris-Newson ticket? Or perhaps a Harris-Cooper ticket? Or a Harris-Shapiro ticket? Two women on the ticket seems unlikely.

But with these post-debate poll numbers, good luck getting Biden to voluntarily withdraw.
