President Donald Trump is falling further behind Democrat Joe Biden in the race for the White House, a new USA TODAY/Suffolk Poll finds – but the president’s real opponent seems to be himself.

Opposition to Trump is by far the biggest factor propelling support for Biden, including among those who are lukewarm to the presumptive Democratic nominee.

Biden leads Trump by 12 percentage points, 53%-41%, the nationwide survey shows. In a three-way ballot test, including a third-party line, Biden leads the Republican incumbent 46%-37%.

Trump continues to hold a significant edge when it comes to enthusiasm among his supporters, an important factor in turning out voters. Half of Trump backers say they are “very excited” about their candidate, almost double the 27% of Biden backers who say that.

“Biden is a return to the status quo but it’s better than the direction we’ve been heading,” says James Pehrson, 23, a Democrat from Fairfax, Virginia, who was among those polled. “I am not crazy enthusiastic about Biden as a candidate,” he says, but Trump is “not fit” for the presidency.
