If the new Fox News poll is accurate, it should be sending off warning bells to Joe Biden because there are multiple elements that indicate big trouble for him.
The first is that former President Donald Trump has extended his lead over Biden in their survey. He's now up by five points in the head-to-head numbers, as well as five points ahead of Biden even when adding in the other party candidates. According to Interactive Polls this is the largest lead ever for Trump in Fox polling.

🟥 Trump 50% (+5)
🟦 Biden 45%
Independents
🟥 Trump 51% (+14)
🟦 Biden 37%
This is the largest lead for Trump in any Fox News poll ever
Last six Fox polls of 2020:

Biden +12
Biden +10

Biden +7 (last poll) https://t.co/2xfKCQIqg0 pic.twitter.com/FxfF8RlRrD
Trump also did better in favorability, 45 to 39 percent.
On top of that, there are some pretty stunning numbers when it comes to the independents and young voters.
As you can see above, Trump is capturing the independents by 14 points, 51 to 37 percent. That's critical; it's the independents and the swing states that may turn the tide in this race. Hispanics and white women also had Trump up 48-45 percent and 50-45 percent, respectively. Although Biden is still up with black voters, he's slipped from his 2020 numbers, and Trump has a dangerous number for him there.

Hispanics: 45/48
White Women: 45/50

White w/ college: 56/39
White w/o college: 33/64
2020 Biden voters: 90/7
Another number that is so large it's almost hard to believe is the under-30 result which has Trump up 58-40 percent.
More than half (52 percent) believe that they are worse off under Biden than four years ago.
Republicans (72%) and independents (59%) say they are worse off than four years ago, while Democrats say they are better off (37%) or the same (35%).
What really says it all is what the respondents said about Biden's biggest achievement.

"Nothing" was the big winner, the most common choice at 38 percent. That's what they think about Biden, they can't even name anything good. It's pretty much all bad. They noted a variety of bad things he did in that Fox clip, pointing out that he'd put us in a "whole mess of trouble."
