Too early to read too much into these polls.
Stop hyperventilating over polls of Trump vs Biden, etc. – too early to be predictive:

-June 1983: Mondale 49%, Reagan 39%
-June 1991: George H.W. Bush 51%, Democrat 28%, Don't know 21%
-June 1995: Dole 48%, Clinton 44%
-June 2011: Republican 44%, Obama 39%
(all Gallup data)
This is not the only poll like this, and they all kill the “electability” argument. There are people who would have voters believe that only a white man can win this election. The hopes of some candidates rely heavily upon that notion. Don’t buy it, folks. Choose who you like. https://t.co/XKBapUncmS
