Frustrated. Disappointed. Nervous.
Those are the three of the main things Joe Biden is making Americans feel right now, according to a new CBS/YouGov poll. Only 26 percent of Americans think things in the country are going well.
The poll found that a huge majority of Americans believed he wasn’t sufficiently focused on the economy (58 percent) and inflation (65 percent). Only 38 percent approved of his handling of the economy, while a whopping 62 percent disapproved. It’s even worse when it comes to inflation — 30 percent approval, 70 percent disapproval. He’s about to dip into the twenties on the approval of his handling of inflation.
If he thinks their opinion is going to go up if he was able to raise the Build Back Better bill back up from the dead, the answer is no, it wouldn’t. The poll showed that that wouldn’t help him at all: 76 percent said no, their opinion of him wouldn’t improve if he was able to pass the BBB bill. The poll indicated that what they want is a change in inflation, and their opinion of him might improve if he were to do that.

Even with most media still doing all they can to stump for him, it’s hard to get around numbers like these.

It would be really nice to interview the folks that make up the 26% that think he’s doing a good job.
Easier to cheat, yes. It has never been difficult to vote.
And Democrats
But when they mail it right to your house, and especially when activists were going door to door urging people to fill out those ballots, turnout was bound to increase. I know there were actual "voting parties" in some of the housing projects organized by activists.
This is totally anecdotal, but even in my deep-blue neighborhood, I could see some residents were treating the mail-in ballot with as much enthusiasm as an envelope from Publishers Clearing House. Not kidding about this.
I know a guy who voted against Trump because of what he said about McCain “The only reason he is a hero is because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.”.
And then there are the countless feminists and suburban women who didn’t like the “grab’em by the pussy” comment.
“There were huge numbers of people who hated Trump and would have voted for a dead dog over him.”
“...the list of people who wanted anyone but Trump in 2020 was long.”

This spin is similar to what AP was pushing recently.
Ah hem. “We don’t need no laws making it more difficult to vote”, said agreeing Brandon.
People are so stupid, so poorly informed, so out of touch that they don't know this was their plan all along?
Do people really thick in the head that they believe Democrats are pro-business, pro-energy and want America to succeed?
And, if he DOES focus on inflation and the economy, expect things to get a lot worse.
It's an absolutely terrible idea because just for starters, it enables vote buying, which was a major reason we went to the secret ballot in the 1800's in the first place.
Even the single suburban women I know who voted for Brandon are starting to complain bitterly about the inflation. They still don’t want to openly lay it at his feet but there’s no doubt they’re feeling the sting of it.
