MSNBC, CNN, WaPo and more worry about Biden’s poll numbers, fret that he isn’t getting enough credit
FOX News ^ | March 31, 2022 | By Nikolas Lanum

In just the past month, liberal media networks such as MSNBC and CNN, as well as newspapers like Forbes and The Washington Post, expressed concern that President Biden was not seeing a bump in his poll numbers or receiving credit for his response to Ukraine and his impact on the "roaring" U.S. economy.

MSNBC’s Chuck Todd, on multiple occasions, attempted to paint Biden’s handling of the economy in a positive light despite record inflation, sky-high gas prices and poor poll numbers for the president.

During a March 1 segment on MSNBC, Todd pointed to a USA Today/Suffolk University poll which indicated 51% of registered voters believed the U.S. economy was in a recession or a depression. He also made note of a Washington Post/ABC News poll in which 75% of polled adults viewed the economy as not so good or poor.

Todd immediately defended Biden, claiming that Americans’ views of the Biden economy "do not reflect the job gains or GDP growth" that have been touted by the administration. Moments later, Todd claimed it has "never been easier to get a job."

After speaking with a panel of guests, Todd circled back to the polls and became visibly frustrated at the idea Americans believe the country is in a recession or depression.

"It’s just not true. This economy’s frustrating. This economy with COVID has been—I’ve got money and I can’t find something. But my God, there’s jobs, there’s good jobs," Todd said as he slammed his hands on the table.

Over on CNN, anchor Jake Tapper said that "one of the problems" Biden has is that he’s not getting credit for "even the things the public likes."

"It’s just a fact," Tapper added.

He’s the vessel for implementing their communist paradise, but the stupid masses aren’t appreciative. It’s enough to make a propagandist go into a snit.

These people are delusional, dangerous, and enemies of the Republic with all that goes along with that verbiage.

Biden is to American Economy as
Putin is to the Russian Conquest of Ukraine.

(Except Putin can still win. Propaganda cannot save the Democrats.)

Why would a puppet regime have high poll numbers?

Everyone knows he is an evil, corrupt, illegitimate piece of $hit.

He’s used up every bit of America’s credit with his multi-trillion dollar deficits. He’s used all of our credit that Americans can handle.

"credit" is NOT the correct term for NEGATIVE results.

BLAME is the correct term, and yes, THAT is what the polls reflect.

Brandon isn’t receiving enough credit for a lot of things. The southern border is a major one. Granted, the mainstream media ignores that. The media isn’t needed for other things like gas and food prices. We see those every time when we go to the gas station and grocery store.

THAT’S the truth.

I read something a few years back that said America would dissolve before 2025.

I thought it was stupid. Thought it would never happen that quickly.

I don’t know if we will make it to 2024 now. Three more years of this. Having these people in charge is like finding a termite infestation in your wooden home, and the first appointment you can get to have them eradicated is in three years.

This all ties together. Despite their best efforts ,the MSM has rendered themselves impotent. Bidens policies have wrecked the nation but the ability for the media to gaslight for him is eroded with every second that goes by... because the public in general has zero faith in the media. The leftist media has picked the wrong side almost every time. The two most untrustworthy group of folks time and time again are the media and politicians when they poll folks. Coincidence?

If I turn off your economy, should I be lauded for turning in back on ? Wake up idiots !

IIRC, we’re still 1/2 million jobs below March of ‘20, the start of COVID.

Many decades ago, the press was at least somewhat sympathetic with the working man because the press was paid a salary on par with the wiring man. Now, the MSM “talent” all pull in multi-million dollar salaries. These people have no connection at all to those struggling on a modest paycheck as inflation destroys any potential to save and threatens to push them into poverty.

The press has now reached a Marie Antoinette level of detachment from reality.

I agree. Joe Biden and his everything opposite Trump, isn’t getting enough credit.

He would have 0% approval if he was getting the credit for what his policies have caused.
