Let’s start with his polling. Gallup on Friday averaged other polling that has shown just how unpopular the president is. Biden has dropped to a 68-year presidential low, 38.7% approval. That is nearly 10 points below where former President Jimmy Carter was at this point in his presidency, and we remember what happened in his reelection bid.

He said some brilliant things even after his resignation.

Prophetic
I’ve always said Nixon was probably the smartest President we’ve had in my lifetime.
RE: Biden drives his approval rating into a ditch
Was he driving an EV or his old tractor trailer?
At a separate November 30, 2021 event, he told students at a technical college in Minnesota who were studying truck technology, “I used to drive a tractor-trailer,” adding, “I only did it for part of a summer, but I got my license anyway.” Biden’s claims were fact-checked and found to be false.
Oh, those memories of his days driving the big trucks. Biden can almost feel the big wheel and the power at his command.

He was a brilliant man, but with some surprising flaws. Unfortunately, the latter cost him too dearly. The Greeks would have written plays about him.
Indeed.
I spent 90 dollars yesterday on pasta, pizza dough, paper towels, peanuts, cheese, water, juice, kale, ice cream and a cat treat! Where is the beef?
Yes to both!
He’s always been stupid and he thinks blacks are stupid!
Maybe all of us - I know something about how voter fraud is done - maybe others do too. Maybe there’s a way to get the word out so good people know what to look for and those that do the fraud know they should be worried.
I think i need a caveat to drum this in...I buy what I can carry..2 bags!
Doesn’t matter if his approval rating is 0%. The fix is in and he’ll be drooling in the Oval Office another four years.
It may be too late to activate that option. They were hoping that Trump's legal troubles would doom him so much that a weakened Biden could beat him. It is looking like they miscalculated.
[Yesterday in a Howard Stern radio interview, Biden said during the civil rights struggle, he was arrested for visiting with a black family on the porch. This never happened.
Gee, ya think his lies about the civil rights era are going to go over good with black voters? You ain’t black if you don’t vote for me?
Is he stupid or does he think they are stupid?]
Although black people are, on average, more conservative than white liberals, a significant break among black voters from the Democratic Party should be unlikely, because the Democratic Party treats black people collectively as an interest group it services, and the GOP does not.
Giving stuff to and doing stuff for black people is one of the main things the Democratic Party is about. Central to its messaging is that they do things for black people. That is why Joe Biden promised to nominate a black Supreme Court justice, and Gavin Newsom promised to fill a Senate vacancy with a black appointee.
The Republican Party’s messaging to white people isn’t as explicit, but the subtext is clear. They’re saying that the Democrats want to take stuff from “you,” their prospective voter who is probably white, and give it to “somebody else” who is probably black or an immigrant.
For black voters to switch in large numbers from the party that promises to give stuff to black people to the party that opposes giving stuff to black people, the Democrats have to err spectacularly. Basically, black people have to hate the stuff the Democrats are giving them.
One major thing the Democrats have been giving black people since 2020 is the Black Lives Matter agenda: Less policing, less traffic enforcement, less pretrial detention, less imprisonment, fewer police interactions with black men in areas where a lot of black people live.
It is possible that a lot of black people actually hate the Black Lives Matter agenda. It is possible that they are upset that people are driving sixty miles an hour down the street where their kids play. It is possible they blame Democrats for the rise in crime and disorder.
Black people bear the brunt of rising crime much more than white people do, so when white liberals believe crime is a conservative bogeyman, they think they’re being antiracist, but they’re actually dismissing the concerns of black people who are experiencing rising crime acutely.
The other thing that might be happening is that the GOP message that the Democrats are taking something from “you” and giving it to “somebody else” is appealing to black voters more than it has in previous cycles, because this time, the “somebody else” is migrants.
A lot of black voters live in large cities and a lot of migrants have flowed into those cities in the last couple of years, and black people in those cities are experiencing more negative impact from this than white liberals are.
The school gymnasium or the community center in a black neighborhood may have been turned into a shelter for migrants, or migrants may be congregating in a park in a predominantly black neighborhood. City programs that historically benefited black residents may be cut to defer funds to migrant services.
White liberals experience the migrants as, like, an unlicensed vendor selling cut mango in front of the art museum, and black voters experience the migrants as MS-13 selling fentanyl on their block.
I still have a hard time imagining that a lot of black voters are going to support Donald Trump, who, for better or worse, has successfully been tagged as a racist. But if black people are really fleeing Joe Biden, then it reveals a stunning disconnect, because the Biden administration has been more dedicated to “stuff for black people” than any Democratic administration in my lifetime.
If Biden is losing the support of black voters, then that means that crime and immigration are more important to black people than the BLM agenda, the appointment of black judges and executive branch officials, affirmative action and diversity policies, and student loan forgiveness.
They don’t care. They think the lawfare will get Brandon back in.
Biden was out there with the best of the racists protecting school busing in NE cities in the 70s
I think you’re right. Clearly they would like more options, but every option is just more hideous than the next.
And isn’t it breath-taking how NO ONE will utter the phrase Kamala as president. When you DEI hire you get lousy results.
He may be the dumbest guy EVER to set foot in that office
It’s astounding
He is the oldest. His dementia defines him. I have mom who is 87 who is fast and smart and works full time. She has no problem hiking or walking up stairs. Age should not define you but dementia is another ballpark.
