I know you have a very low understanding of polling etc, but polling numbers change when someone is a nominee vs when they're not the nominee.
But he's not popular, he's objectively unpopular. Trump had a much worse economy than Biden, and didn't actually do anything in relation to immigration, nor is he capable of being moderate. He was just as radical as before at that rnc speech.
Lmao what response to inflation is there other than increasing interest rates?
Furthermore, what?

Inflation was 3% last report, which means it is being tamed.
Biden dropped out due to his age, by far his biggest issue was his age, not admin policy.

among certain groups yes. Among other, large groups he's very popular. You can't say he's objectively unpopular as a blanket statement across all peoples and groups because that is objectively wrong.
We all know he's unpopular in certain circles the same way Biden, Harris etc are. We're not saying Kamala is objectively unpopular because it's not true either. She has her supporters and plenty of them.
See the difference?

When I find a poll that's not fricking on paygated website (goddarned journos) it's showing 48% approval vs 51% disapproval which is interesting so yeah that's fair. It's a small margin but you're right one could argue that point. I still feel like it's splitting hairs as it's not like polls are some bastion of absolute truth. For example the same site has Kamala polling at 38 approval and 56 disapproval which is ridiculous. She can't be over 25% approval. lmao

it's actually 41%.
Kamala isn't much better, but thats fairly normal for vp out of the spotlight, and she can improve hers, Donald Trump likely cannot improve his.

No, opinions on Harris are well established and there's no signs they will change after she becomes the nominee. You are politically illiterate if you think a candidate with 99% name recognition gets a boost from being the official Democratic nominee. What can change polling is glowing media coverage about her, but there is a ceiling to that boost.
Nobody thinks Biden's economy, with negative real wage growth, was better than Trumps economy which had 17% average real wage growth. Trump mobilized the government to patrol the border and removed incentives for economic migrants to claim 'asylum'. Every poll shows a 5+ point for Trump on these issues
