Harvard-Harris Poll: Majority of Voters Say Donald Trump a Better President than Biden
Breitbart ^ | Jan 25, 2022 | by HANNAH BLEAU

Posted on 01/25/2022 3:34:12 PM PST by Jim Robinson

Most voters believe former President Donald Trump was a better commander-in-chief than President Joe Biden, a Harvard-Harris Poll released this week found.

The survey, taken January 19-20, 2022, among 1,815 registered voters, asked respondents who they thought was or “has been” a better president — Donald Trump or Joe Biden.

A majority, 53 percent, said Trump was a better president, while Biden fell six points behind, as 47 percent said he has been a better leader. That same survey also pitched a hypothetical 2024 matchup between Biden and Trump and found Trump leading six percentage points — 46 percent to 40 percent.

Similarly, a McLaughlin & Associates survey released last week also presented a hypothetical 2024 rematch between the two figures and found Trump leading Biden by five percentage points — 49 percent to 44 percent. That comes as Biden’s approval rating tanks underwater by double digits, sitting at -14.4, per RealClearPolitics’ Tuesday average. That coincides with an RMG Research/Scott Rasmussen survey released Monday, showing Biden’s net approval at -10 percent.

The Rasmussen survey also pitched a specific scenario to respondents, asking if they would prefer a presidential candidate who was a “Republican who supported policies like President Trump, a more traditional Republican, a Democrat who supported policies similar to Senator Bernie Sanders, or a more traditional Democrat.” Of those four choices, a plurality, 30 percent, said they would prefer a “Republican who supported policies like President Trump,” reinforcing the fact that Trump continues to have a firm grip on the party and the GOP’s base as the midterms approach.

I kept a copy of Democrat David Brock’s plan because it was thorough. Thoroughly workable and thoroughly evil.

Registered voters. three years away. This poll is worthless, but heartening anyway.

In other shocking news, Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead, the sky is blue, the media is a tool of the Left and Epstein did not kill himself.

Maybe. But I know people who would still vote for Biden - enthusiastically. It’s not the same country we grew up in. The schools have brainwashed students for the last several decades and probably more as we all stood by and watched it happen and did nothing until it is now almost too late. Any democrat or any republican will get at least 40% no matter the nominee in a 2 candidate race. Campaigns are for the other 20%.

I believe that number. Consider the Virginia's governor's race: out of 3.3 million votes, Youngkin won by only 65,000 votes and that is with a perfect storm - covered up sexual assaults to protect a so-called transgender student in Loudoun County (which Youngkin lost by 10,000 votes), out of control school boards, mandates, etc etc.

Many people prefer to be told what to do and what to think - it makes their life easier - so they think.

We will be hanging by a thread for a long time until this strain of incompetent command and control is defeated. It will take a long and sustained effort. We will have to be happy with incremental changes for the moment. Most of the republican party still does not want to fight, push back or whatever you want to call it. The ones who do seem to leave Congress, such as Nunes - although I realize he was redistricted out of his seat.

That is bad news for Brandon. I think they will try to declare the pandemic over to give him a win.

The biggest advantage democrats have is their base is so stupid you could tell them a pandemic was over while they were standing on a stack of dead bodies and they'd believe the cheap words over reality.

No surprise. That was the result of the 2020 election as well if one removes the fraud.

Once the Republicans take over the House of Representatives after the midterms, negative stories about Biden will be pushed forward and deny Biden any chance of reelection. Mask mandates, vaccine mandates, and test mandates can’t be hidden. Those will be blamed on Democrats.

It works if one candidate has four years of being president while the other one doesn’t. It doesn’t work if both candidates have four years of being president. Then the public can compare the two presidencies and decide which one was better (Trump).
