63% of US voters see Biden, Trump as ‘embarrassing,’ most would replace them: Poll

[gipper]

Is this poll perfectly accurate? Who the hell knows. It's a poll. But the fact is, a large portion of this country thinks we have two lousy candidates.

Since we don't care enough to make any changes in the way our leaders are chosen, we get what we deserve.

Love your guy all you want. You're in the minority.

63% of US voters see Biden, Trump as ‘embarrassing,’ most would replace them: Poll | Semafor

Despite both candidates being described as flawed in various ways, Trump holds a 4 percentage point lead over Biden in the November election, a new Pew poll found.

At least we can conclude some Americans are capable of thinking. You’d never know it by the opinions of most who post on this board.

Did you just say MAGA?

I just said MAGA.

That's rich given that there is an ongoing soft coup attempt against FJB. The fact of the matter is that the leftist dem elites don't give two shits about the "lesser dem" primary voter.

Well, no a soft coup would be invoking the 25th Amendment. No one has suggested that yet.

Saying, "We might do better with a candidate that isn't 8 years past the average life expectancy when his terms ends" isn't a coup. It's a valid concern.

That wouldn't be a coup, that would be using the process as intended.

We are going to hear how this is the most important election in the nation's history and false, cemetery false rhetoric like that. Nauseating and accepted by those who cannot discern falsehoods from reality.

Okay, replacing Biden at the convention would also be "using the process as intended". It's why we have conventions.

That’s because one of the two WILL be the next president, one is better than the other, and most people want a say in which one.

Seems 63% is saying neither is better than the other.

Your opinion is simply your opinion

Anything else is a waste of a vote. The only time it’s acceptable is if you’re in a state like Maryland or Illinois.

If those 63% go with someone else, that person wins.

That’s not what they’re saying. One is STILL better than the other.

If those 63% go with someone else, that person wins.

Who says the “someone else” isn’t worse? RFK is an extrme leftist.

It seems that the main purpose of the duopoly is to Make America Groan Again.

That’s not what they’re saying. One is STILL better than the other.

"most would replace them".

That's exactly what most of them are saying.

So if 58% vote for someone else that person would win.

Who says the “someone else” isn’t worse? RFK is an extrme leftist.

RFK has views very similar to Trump. Someone else would run though if a large percentage of people showed an inclination to vote other than (D) or (R).

These folks just can't bring themselves to admit that.

He has some EXTREMELY liberal views. The media is hiding it because he wants people to fall for the lie that he’s similar to Trump.

Thank you oh wise one who knows better than everyone.

I don't disagree.

Also since one actually votes for electors, not the President directly, there is even a mechanism to select someone else at the Electoral level, unless some amendment I am unaware of changed that.

That would be the move if he was the nominee, but 25th Amendment'ed out or died during the campaign and after the convention.

 

[Mac1958]

Thank you oh wise one who knows better than everyone.

You're very welcome!

I don't think Biden is a LOUSY President or candidate. He's accomplished a great deal and still has a very good sense of what needs accomplished to make the Nation strong and better here at home and on the world stage... And a strong foundational sense of what is right or wrong, pertaining to governance, even as he ages.

Things that Trump has never had or shown to have had....

Biden is old, and speaks softly, and shuffles when he walks, looks pale, and some times may stumble on foot or via mouth... the mouth stumbling is not something new for Biden...he's done it for decades.....

The concerns are more physical, on my part. I'd rather see him in a wheel chair than watch his struggling gate.... Or concerns for two or three or four years from now.

It simply would be nice to see two younger, vibrant candidates bringing us in to the future decades of policy, that will also affect the candidates themselves.

My concerns are with Trump as president again. He doesn't meet any standard of qualification, he knows nothing about anything, when it comes to being a leader of this country...he sways with the wind, and polling, and with money thrown his way, and never ever speaks coherently, or truthfylly, about any single thing, and flip flops endlessly...he offers only chaos.

If Biden drops out, which he still might....it'll lead to division and chaos on who the new candidate should be...sure the media will be happy exposing those divisions and keeping their businesses, busy....

My fear is the uncertainty of who the new candidate will be. Normally, it would simply be the Vice President... But some are divided on this, and under every circumstance, the way to win is by being united....the strain and bruises to get us there, is not something I look forward to.

Democrats always find a way to F things up!

Angry and stunned Democrats blame Biden’s closest advisers for shielding public from full extent of president’s decline​

No he doesn't.

In recent months, Kennedy has become a regular on Fox News and Newsmax, and he is now a staple on the conservative podcast circuit — being interviewed by the likes of Ben Shapiro, Glenn Beck and Megyn Kelly. While railing against President Joe Biden, Kennedy is actively courting an audience with the young listeners of bro podcasters and conservative-coded YouTubers that skew anti-“woke.”

[Mac-7]

Or, perhaps more accurately, specifically against one. Again.

Thats Mac1958 ’s excuse for giving biden all of his votes

He just hates trump the most

He has the delegates....Now what are you gonna do about it?

So, according to you, a bunch of leftist dem elites and their media lackeys can just run roughshod over "lesser dem" primary voters without FJB being 25thed or otherwise stepping down and you call it a "process"?

Huh, that does not seem to be very "democratic" to me.....Then again you leftist fucks just use "mah democracy" when it suits your needs.

The dem party is morally bankrupt and totally busted in America's eyes.....You people have run yourselves into a hole.

The duopoly approves of this message.

You are a good and faithful drone.
