As the novel coronavirus pandemic grinds the American economy to a pulp, US President Donald Trump's popularity with voters has gone the same way.
According to CNN, the national political landscape has clearly and significantly shifted in favor of the Democratic Party's presumptive nominee Joe Biden.
Given Trump's inability to wrest control of the crisis, it's unsurprising that his reelection chances have taken a substantial hit.
It's not that Trump hasn't tried. He's demoted Brad Parscale and touted a law and order message in the face of widespread protests for racial justice.
He's even tried to portray himself as a leader in command of the COVID-19 response. But nothing has worked so far.
Trump's path to 270 electoral votes is narrow, and Biden is shoring up some traditionally blue-leaning battleground states, giving him multiple paths to victory.
