A CNN poll that the network proclaimed as showing a “mostly positive reaction” to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union speech Tuesday showed that the speech actually hit a low point for those who had a “very positive reaction” to Biden’s remarks.
The poll noted that 71 percent of those surveyed had a positive reaction to the speech, according to CNN.
But a dose of context showed that just as opinion polls show support for Biden has declined steadily since he took office, reaction to the speech was below the levels of a year ago.
When Biden addressed Congress in April, he had a 78 percent positive reaction that included 51 percent giving him a very positive reaction.
But on Tuesday night, only 41 percent gave Biden a very positive reaction, which even CNN acknowledged “matches the previous low in CNN’s speech reaction polls dating back to 1998.” The poll had a margin of error of 5.5 percentage points.
Drip, drip, drip... only 41% of the true believers liked it. And check out the margin of error: 5.5!
