Yahoo Asks the Quite Part Out Loud: Why’s Joe So Unpopular?

[Weatherman2020]

2nd most unpopular President in modern history. Trails Jimmy Carter, and at least Jimmy signed into law legalizing home beer and wine making.

But there’s enough time for the man who’s worked almost 6 decades in the government with zero accomplishments to his name to take the title.

Why is Joe Biden so unpopular?

In the past, a president’s standing has tended to improve along with conditions in the country. President Biden’s numbers haven’t budged.

I blame partisanship in polling

Used to be Americans would abandon political affiliation and just say they approve or disapprove of the President

After 9-11 Bush polled in the 80s as America rallied around the President. By the time he left office, he was polling below 30 percent as both parties turned against him.

Obama was different. Regardless of what he did, Republicans disapproved. Even after bin Laden was killed, Obama’s numbers were still in the low 40s

Trump was the same. Democrats would not approve regardless of the shape of the economy. Trump stayed in the low 40s for his whole Presidency

Biden is in the same low 40s range as Obama and Trump no matter what he does.

42 percent approval is the new norm for a President.

The only poll that matters is the election

Haha.... of course you do.
It couldn't possibly be that fact he is a frail elderly man in obvious cognitive decline who literally cannot complete a sentence without fucking it up, even if he is reading it.
Noooo

Oh, he's taking the title. Remember the 1980 election? History repeats itself.

Biden's worse than Carter.

 

[Mac1958]

Looks like his average disapproval is 53.7%, according to RCP.

So 40% to 45% are Republicans, and for the rest, I'd guess they think he's too old (understandable) and/or they think he's responsible for the inflation we've seen.

He's not exactly an attractive politician.

Bidens approval ratings are not significantly different than Obama or Trump

Regardless of performance, a given percentage will say Disapprove

Why’s Joe So Unpopular?​

Primarily because the person in the Oval Office gets blamed when things don't go well. People were upset about inflation so Joe got the blame. Aided by right wing media lies.

And, he has not received the credit he deserves for a strong economy.

Morgan Stanley credits Bidenomics for ‘much stronger’ than expected GDP growth​

Morgan Stanley credits Bidenomics for 'much stronger' than expected GDP growth

Biden's Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act is "driving a boom in large-scale infrastructure," wrote Morgan Stanley's chief U.S. economist.

You forgot the other side... a given percentage will say approve.
I know you don't like him, but Bill O'Reilly said it pretty good when looking at any political poll...
(Paraphrase) - "About 40% are going to vote in favor of, every time, and about 40% are going to vote against, every time. And then anywhere from 10%-15% vote 'I don't know". So that leaves about 5% - 10% that are meaningful."
This is why for the past 20 years polls are meaningless. And increasingly meaningless as long as America stays as divided as it is.

Yet he got more votes than any other POTUS...this is the problem democrats have in trying to force Biden out. The same can be said for republicans with TRUMP, except TRUMP is popular.

www.cnbc.com

• Biden’s 2021 infrastructure bill has created “a boom in large-scale infrastructure,” wrote MS analysts, while domestic business investment “is rebounding, led by manufacturing.”

Meantime in the real world most of that infrastructure money is going to Democrats for ‘green’ BS while trains derail and bridges collapse, and manufacturing is imploding.

While Americans now pay $680B a month in debt interest alone.

US manufacturing near three-year low; casts a shadow over economy

U.S. manufacturing activity slumped in March to the lowest level in nearly three years as new orders plunged, and analysts said activity could decline further due to tighter credit conditions.

Exactly what I have been saying

Yet the media reports and lies for Obama and Biden. But reported only bad things about Trump. Even making things up. Yet their poll numbers were about the same.

Trump remains broadly unpopular with the public: 63% of Americans have an unfavorable opinion of the former president, while 35% view him favorably. A year ago, Trump’s rating stood at 60% unfavorable.

Little change in Americans’ views of Trump over the past year

With two impeachments and multiple indictments of Trump and his staff it is not hard to report bad stuff.

Why don’t you get ONE indictment of Obama or Biden?

 

[two_iron]

Probably the stolen election. Yeah, he's dumber than fuck, shits his pants in public, has sold out the country for tens of millions, molested his daughter.... <take a breath>.... yeah he spawned a crackhead serial rapist, yeah, he's a pedophile, plagiarist, congenital liar, serial racist, can't stay on his feet, mumbles like a 3-year old on meth and is generally unpleasant trailer trash....

But it's the stolen election the normal people don't cotton to.....

What is a guy so unpopular leading Donald Trump in a 2024 matchup ?

Hell, James Buchanan is resting easy in his grave between Tater and the Halfrican.

At least I never looked upon Carter as a mean-spirited asshole like those two.

Instead of just blaming the fact that Biden is an incompetent twit with creepy behaviors? Yep, it's got to be the polling. What's wrong with you people?
