I have to admit, I'm not surprised that you are unable to distinguish between polls that depend on people saying how they will vote and those that ask how they feel about how things are going are......…...different; have different margins of error.

Trump's sub 45% approval before the election was the real indicator.
On Election Day, Trump's Approval Rating Is Lower Than One-Term Jimmy Carter's

Americans go the polls today to elect the next president of the United States, though nearly 100 million voters have already cast their ballots. President Donald Trump is trailing former Vice President Joe Biden in nationwide polls.
One factor that could determine the outcome of the election is approval of how the president is doing his job. Trump has never broken the 50 percent threshold for job approval during his time in the White House, according to Gallup.
As election day dawns, Trump's average approval rating does not appear to bode well for the president. A smaller percentage of Americans approve of Trump than did Jimmy Carter, who famously lost re-election to Ronald Reagan in 1980.
Trump's average approval stood at 44.6 percent on November 2, according to poll tracker FiveThirtyEight

President Donald Trump's share of the popular vote at the 2020 election has fallen below 47 per cent, according to a report.
Despite the drop, he still secured millions more votes than defeated presidential candidates Mitt Romney in 2012 and Hilary Clinton in 2016.
The outgoing president has so far secured 74,115,722 votes — or 46.9 per cent of all ballots counted to date.
Meanwhile Joe Biden, president-elect, picked up 81,056,268 votes — or 51.3 per cent of the 158,073,433 total.
Those figures are according to the latest update from The Cook Political Report's (CPR) 2020 National Popular Vote Tracker.
