Mitt Romney Believes Trump Is Likely To Be Re-Elected; Contrary To Polls Indicating Joe Biden Will Emerge Victorious

Republican Utah Senator and 2012 presidential candidate Mitt Romney believes that President Donald Trump is likely to catapult into power once again, in the November 2020 elections.

Romney made the prediction at the Republican Senate on Saturday and expressed his expectation of Republicans to keep the majority of the Senate. Romney’s predictions, however, contradict the current reality in the recent polling that points to Trump failing to hold his position to Democratic President Joe Biden.

The same is evident in the polls that were held in three states i.e. Michigan, Pennsylvania and Arizona, where Biden is leading by more than 3 percentage points.

Romney also maintained that he wouldn’t be comfortable divulging about who he will be voting for, in the forthcoming elections. On Monday, Trump rebuked Romney, who he has previously termed a “fool” and a “failed presidential candidate” for showing his support in solidarity as he marched along with the demonstrators of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Romney made it clear when he took to social media to express his dismay over Trump’s indifference towards the whole George Floyd killing, as Romney believed that the U.S. president had “time to do whatever he feels is appropriate” given the voicing of his concerns over the death of the 46-year-old Minneapolis man of color.

As per a recent survey made on June 1, the polls highlight former Vice President Joe Biden with a 10-point, and “an impressive 43 to 53 percent lead over Trump among registered voters of all political affiliations nationwide.”

The Trump administration’s mismanagement of the pandemic, followed by Trump’s volatile stance on police brutality is being pegged as one of the factors that have led to a fall in his approval rating -- 54.8% of voters have expressed their disappointment over his performance.

The United States Of America continues to grapple under the COVID-19 outbreak, with over 2.4 million confirmed cases, and 115,000 deaths. Trump who has received major backlash for downplaying the severity of the pandemic, has also been warned by health experts to stop advocating the use of hydroxychloroquine -- an anti-malaria drug that is yet to be scientifically proven effective in treating the virus.
