Note: The thing they claim to hate the most... an old white man!

CNN released its first poll for the 2020 election season Sunday morning, and former Vice President Joe Biden dominates the field of Democratic contenders — even though the first debate is still likely more than eight months away.

The poll shows Americans are now "more likely" to believe Donald Trump will win a second term in office, however, putting the crowded Democratic field at an interesting disadvantage. Now, 46% of Americans believe Donald Trump will be a two-term president, up ten points from the same poll taken in May.

Republicans are also far more united now than ever before. Only 20% of Republicans say they'd prefer a different candidate at the top of the GOP ticket. That's good news for Trump; two years ago, Republicans predicted Trump might face a serious challenge from the Right. That doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

Democrats, though, may face a long and arduous election season. CNN polled the top 16 candidates, from Joe Biden, to Michael Avenatti, and found that Biden, and not more predictable names like Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) was Democrats' top choice to take on Trump in 2020.
