Official LRC President Joseph R Biden Thread

I had to Google Charlie Kirk for some context and found this: Charlie Kirk has consistently asserted that the concept of white privilege is a myth and a "racist lie". Kirk served on President Donald Trump's 1776 Commission, a response to the 1619 Project."

Now his racist attitude makes sense. Trumpism at its worst.

Earth to agip, Bidenomics SUCKS. His poll numbers are still sinking.

"A majority of 58 percent of Americans responded that they believe the economy will be worse in a year than it is today. That’s the highest number in the history of this poll. Only 27 percent answered they believed the economy will get better in a year."

Polls don't decide how good the economy is. agip is right.

Just another reminder, I guess, how relatively meaningless more-or-less steady polls are to anyone not in the business of running an election.

With Trump, he got KINDA low, and stayed there. After watching him for a year or two, his approval SHOULD have been about 0%, but it wasn't. Stupid country. It would have been (good) news if he went way lower, or higher, but I don't recall that he did. He stayed at the low, but not that low, level for a long time, and we kept having to hear about it. The country is dumb. Non-news.

Similar, though not exactly the same, with Biden. He could literally save the universe, and roughly half will still disapprove. And he could piss off the liberals (or even moderates) on something and perhaps go down a bit for a while. But roughly half of the country being reflexively, stupidly disapproving is such non-news....but we keep hearing about it. And not just from the Trumpers on this thread.

He doesn’t have a clue where he is or what to say.

in this era, no president will likely have a high approval rating. Look at this chart - we just don't approve of presidents very much.

Perhaps we should consider approval ratings in the 40s the natural state of affairs for modern presidents. Approval has been in the 40s for 101 of the 157 months since Jan 2009.

Biden sucks, his approval wasn't stable. He started with 55% approval (RCP average) and it sunk to 41%. Completely collapsed among independents/moderates.

every prez gets a honeymoon and then loses it.

biden's approval rating has been stable for the last five months.

One Trump era dynamic I'm sure about, but another I'm not:

1) He has no doubt convinced a lot of mouth breathers that horrendous behavior from a public figure it OK. Rs actually objected to Nixon, who did far fewer - and less bad - bad things.

2) But, has Trump ALSO convinced a lot more mouth breathers to be against the other tribe NO MATTER who they are or what they do? In other words, is the number of morans who disapprove of Biden no matter what GREATER THAN the number who did the same to Carter or Clinton? I tend to think so, but not sure.

And, of course, one major data point in support of my suspicion regarding #2 is that I distinctly do NOT remember as*h***s constantly and gleefully stating, writing, and flying "F*** Jimmy Carter" or Bill Clinton flags.

America managing to constantly get MORE immature, and MORE nasty, and more.... So pathetic.

When Carter and Regan debated, each graciously referred to the other as "my worthy opponent".

Oh how times have changed.

Biden's aporoval has been drifting lower and your delusion keeps growing. Those are the facts.

This NYT article paints the economy somewhat less rosy than agip.

Is America’s Economy Entering a New Normal?

By Jeanna Smialek

Policymakers are wrestling with the reality that the pandemic may mark a turning point in the nation’s economic plot.

Link:www.nytimes.com/2022/03/24/business/ec...

oh nasty one, Biden's approval rating has been between 41 and 43 for 4-5 months. It's not drifting lower. I'm sorry you are so bad at looking at lines.

Meanwhile in seditionist America, the wife of a SCOTUS justice was talking to the WH Chief of Staff, urging him to overthrow the election.

Also in seditionist America, an outgoing president pressured members of congress to overthrow the election.

And of course, in seditionist America, a 'conservative' mob stormed the capital with weapons, fought police and tried to stop the peaceful transition of power.

and 'conservatives' don't give a poop. "conservatives' consider 'liberals' to the threat to democracy. Can't make this up.

Totally normal. Republicans are Complete seditionists who would rather lose democracy than be ruled by Democrats. We’re doomed. This is the highest law enforcement officer in the staten of Alabama.

Day four of Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation hearing veered into conspiracy territory on Thursday when one of the GOP’s witnesses, Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall, repeatedly refused to say that Joe Biden is the lawfully elected president.

What is a woman?
