IF JOE BIDEN and Donald Trump have one thing in common, it is that they don’t trust the polls.

Now Mr Biden has cast doubt on polls that show him trailing Mr Trump in swing states or plagued by historically low approval ratings. “I don’t believe that’s my approval rating,” he shot back at George Stephanopoulos in a prime-time interview on ABC meant to assuage Democrats’ anxieties after his terrible debate performance against Mr Trump. “That’s not what our polls show,” he added, referencing his campaign’s internal polling.
