Biden Hits the Lowest Approval Number Ever
By James Morley III    |   Saturday, 06 July 2024 12:45 PM EDT
 

In the midst of a poor debate, multiple excuses, and a growing number of discontent Democrats, President Joe Biden has hit his lowest approval rating since becoming president.

According to a survey released Friday from FiveThirtyEight, Biden's job approval sits at 36%, while 57% of Americans disapprove of the president. The polling data from FiveThirtyEight is an aggregate of publicly available polls that adhere to strict criteria of methodology, sources, weighing criteria, and poll funding.

Democrats have found themselves in a state of perpetual crisis since Biden's shaky and halting performance at last week's debate sent his poll numbers plummeting. The latest FiveThirtyEight poll follows a new poll this week by CNN showing more than 50% of Biden's own party say the Democrats will have a better chance at winning in November with a different candidate.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

The dead and ghost voters will rise up and save him at the poles. :whistle:

And all of the multiple and out-of-district voters, too.

How does he NEVER dip below 30%, even after his 'debate' debacle?

Either Democrats are as patently stupid as we think, or someone is gaming the numbers like a Philadelphia precinct.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

These numbers are lethal to any incumbent.  Obama never dipped below 40% on average, and Bill Clinton was only in this range for a couple of weeks in 1993.  Carter was in the low 30s by the summer of 1980 ... so he's better off than Carter, but not by much.

I go with both A and B, with a heavy lean toward A.  Yes, the dems are that stupid.

They can pull a few shenanigans and fudge an election that is within a few points in a few swing states. But they cannot fudge a landslide. There needs to be someone on the ticket who can PLAUSIBLY win, and then the drop boxes and friendly bureaucrat vote counters will do the rest.

It's a shame there is no way to seal the drop boxes after the voting is supposed to be done. Not that i would matter--they'll just bring in another truckload.
