President Donald Trump is trailing his Democratic rival Joe Biden by the widest margin this year, according to a Fox News poll released Thursday.

The poll, conducted from June 13 to 16, found 50 percent of respondents would vote for Biden, compared to 38 for Trump. That's a sharp change from last month's poll, which found 48 percent backing Biden and 40 percent backing Trump.

The poll was conducted amid weeks of protests over race and police brutality, a period where Trump attempted to establish himself as a "law and order" president and threatened federal force to quell demonstrators.
