Panama’s Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega did it. Cuba’s Fidel Castro also did. Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega is still doing it. And now, President Joe Biden’s Justice Department has too.So, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that a majority of voters think that the indictment, arrest, and finger-printing of former President Donald Trump make America look like a banana republic.While the nation debates the former president’s indictment for having classified documents in his home, the public is also aware of how a similar case has gone cold against his top opponent, Biden.And that’s led to the “banana republic” charge, a reference to the practice of Central and South American dictators persecuting their opponents.
You always have to drill down into poll numbers. It’s the raw data that usually points to bias in the poll sampling methods or how questions are presented.
Trust your gut. If everyone around you seems to struggle to get by financially, retire later, deal with higher crime, etc., you don’t need a poll to tell you the admin is a failure.
What else can we expect in a divided non-collaborative political system that works for one of two minority political factions [25-30% of population] and completely rejects the moderates that used to make our country grow.
Bud light has a low approval rating because many people are bigoted and hateful. Seems like a false equivalence to compare to Presidential approval rating, which can be about a large number of reasons, like ageism, the economy, foreign policy, just simple political differences.
GOP better hope 45 gets locked up… because doesn’t matter how low Joe’s approval ratings are … if Trump wins the nomination (which he will if he doesn’t get locked up)… Biden will beat him again. A lot of us didn’t like him last time either… but he was the one running against Don the Con so we voted for him… and will do so again. I will say though… he has done a very good job so far… got us out of pandemic, kept us out of the recession everyone was predicting, worked with both sides, job numbers are excellent …. the only thing he has done which I really didn’t like was negotiating with the terrorists … on the debt ceiling.

When Trump’s numbers were perpetually upside down folks like Lisa called polls fake news. I guess now they believe in them?

Biden is more popular than a supposed “beer” that is produced by the Clydesdales.

I’m sure the numbers are close. A half a percentage point maybe? Probably not enough for the old man to trip over so there is that!

“We have plans to build a railroad from the Pacific all the way across the Indian Ocean”
I bet Biden’s approval rating will soar after he gets this done. :P
