NBC "News" Poll: "Biden's Presidency in Peril, Declined In Every Measure"
At the behest of the delusionary White House, the left is ginning up the most desperate campaign of overpraising Joe Biden -- claiming he's the most successful president in history. It's so incredible it sounds like they're being sarcastic.
Adam Carolla was nigh-apoplectic over the "narcissistic sociopath" Gavin Newsom making this claim about Joe Biden. Maybe they think the key to beating Trump is to engage in Trumpian puffery, wowing listeners with a litany of dubious superlatives? I don't know. But the public isn't buying the "Joe Biden is the most successful president in history" Soviet propaganda campaign.
47% is close to where I'd say that Trump needs to be -- about 48% will win this race.
President Joe Biden hit yet another new low in his approval rating (37%) in the latest NBC News poll released Sunday, raising concern of the Democrat pollster, who said the "damning" results show "a presidency in peril." Former President Donald Trump not only leads Biden by 5 points (47%-42%) in the national poll, but also leads by big margins: 23 points on mental and physical health to be president (46%-23%) 22 points on handling the economy (55%-33%) 21 points on dealing with crime and violence (50%-29%) 16 points on being competent and effective (48%-32%) 11 points on improving America's standing in the world (47%-36%) 35 points on securing the southern border (57%-22%) Illegal immigration has been widely deemed the No. 1 voting issue, according to exit polls in the early GOP primary states.
"What is most concerning is the erosion of Biden's standing against Trump compared to four years ago," Democrat pollster Jeff Horwitt of Hart Research Associates told NBC News. "On every measure compared to 2020, Biden has declined. Most damning, the belief that Biden is more likely to be up to the job -- the chief tenet of the Biden candidacy -- has evaporated."
... With 73% of registered voters say the U.S. is on the wrong track under Biden, the only silver lining for the sitting president and Horwitt is there remains time to turn the numbers back around. "Biden can take solace that we are in January and not October 2024," Horwitt added. "At this stage in prior cycles, attitudes can change."
He's doubling down on all of his current policies. How can he change them, given that he is, according to the White House and its surrogates, "the most successful president in the history of the United States"??!
A conviction of Trump won't do it for Biden:
This is tough:
Biden backers might have to hope for a conviction of Trump on one of the four indictments he faces. If Trump is convicted of a felony, Biden actually leads Trump by 2 points (45%-43%), but that is a statistical tie within the margin of error.
[B]iden's campaign made its case in 2020 on being more competent and effective, but that advantage is now squarely in Trump's favor by 16 points, according to the poll. It is a 25-point swing from June 2020 -- the height of the George Floyd riots and COVID-19 pandemic backlash.Much more at the link. I can't quote all the goodness.
John Nolte:
Nationally, Trump leads Biden by a stunning (in this poll -- see the closing paragraph) five points, 47 to 42 percent. That's a nine-point swing in Trump's direction since July of last year when Biden was up four, 49 to 45 percent. ...More at the link.
Currently, only 35 percent of Hispanics, 29 percent of young people (18-34), and 27 percent of Independents approve of the job Biden's doing. For contrast, in this same poll in early 2020, Trump had an approval rating of 46 percent and still lost (allegedly).
... On the general question of favorability, only 36 percent view Biden favorably, while 54 percent view him unfavorably. That puts him underwater -18 points. Trump's favorable/unfavorable rating of 38/52 is four net points healthier at -14 points.

The problem isn't that the meat puppet is the face of the Dem party, though that's not helping.
Whomever they pick to replace him is going to double-down on the exact same policies that he's running on now.

I doubt that's the thought process.
The Party is stuck with Biden. He was the compromise candidate and there isn't enough asymmetrical factional power to get over him. He's Kalorama's creature, but the other faction(s) don't have a strong horse.
Biden is it and I think they're stuck. So they fall back to the position that the Party - here or abroad - always fall back to: Dear Leader is Strong Like Bull!

It was in 2016, too. And it delivered Trump into office.
At which time we made some progress, but little progress that was difficult to undo thanks to obstructionism by the Congress and Trump blinking - as the President historically almost always blinks - on a "government shutdown" play. Trump lost that battle and with it, much of his agenda.
So what this time? Deliver Trump into office again, some modest improvement, and then failure theater until we can return to business as usual?

And regardless if Trump wins, it's simply going to be a holding action from the ever leftward ratchet.
We are being ruled by an evil, power hungry party on one hand and hamstrung and sold down the river by a goofball, illegitimate party on the other.
Witness their support for the this monstrosity of an immigration bill.
The one thing the founders could never foresee is a government in active rebellion against their people.
This immigration bill is effectively a declaration of independence of the federal government from the American People.

Low unemployment, record stock market, inflation decreasing in most sectors. Yeah, let's go back to unstable Trump. Threats to other countries over trade, tariffs imposed because Trump gets feeling hurt, threats to fire government/Federal workers that don't pass Trump loyalty test, corrupt Trump cabinet members, etc. Biden's economy is strong and stable.
If somehow Biden doesn't win in November, it won't be Biden that failed democracy. It will be democracy that failed Biden. And that due to free speech meaning free lies.
In this poll, Latinos are FOUR percent of those recorded, which I find to be one hell of a flaw. The great unsaid that really needs to be examined is the impact a possible President Kamala Harris is having on Biden's numbers.
The most unbelievable aspect of that poll was it said that trump was more competent and mentally stable then Biden. That is very f**ked up. Is there that much of a disconnect in this country?

Yes. There are perhaps some legitimate public polling outfits, but I question even the minority that are often considered to be "honest."
The parties and the candidates maintain monstrously expensive polling apparatuses, and their polling machines are jealously guarded secrets that deliver for them strategic benefit. The processes are secret, the methods are secret and - vitally - the *results* are secret. This costs an absolute fortune and is the focus of monumental effort and commitment of resources by the parties and by the major candidates.
Why? Why do the parties and candidates maintain their own gigantic and expensive polling systems if the public polls are good? This is needless expense if the public polling complex is actually accurate and generates useful data. The first party to quit doing it would see a massive relative increase in its war chest. Yet, they don't quit doing it. And since they don't quit doing it, a solidly logical conclusion is, "the public polls aren't accurate or useful."

I'm going to go home and play X-Box."
I could well be wrong, of course - and I hope I am - but I see apathy and checking out, not going in for a reform candidate.

We were discussing this yesterday. I read a Trump quote to day that seems pretty unequivocal that she's on the way out. I hope he does it soon enough that it won't disrupt the GOP's election efforts, such as they now are.
Trump had been asked by Fox News host Maria Bartiromo about Ronna McDaniel, who has been facing withering attacks from some Trump allies, including the group Turning Point, which was part of an unsuccessful effort to oust her last year.
“I think she did great when she ran Michigan for me. I think she did OK, initially, in the RNC. I would say right now, there’ll probably be some changes made,” Trump said on FOX News Channel’s Sunday Morning Futures.

The media will not go after Biden now, because at this point even the LIVs will ask why they haven't done this before. Even if they did go after Biden, there is no alternative - if one existed, we would have heard about them already - and no, Michelle isn't an alternative. Nobody on the Dem side gets any traction. The people on Biden's staff aren't going to throw him under the bus, because they have more power with an incapacitated Biden than they would with anyone else in the big chair.

He won by less than 50,000 spread over 6 states.
And they had to ballot stuff, mail-in vote and even shut down counting to tabulate in secret to get that win.
2-3 of those flip and Trump wins.
Unfortunately, GA looks like it may be the only one to fix those cheats. They're being dragged kicking and screaming and the GOPe may yet prevent it.
WI looks like they are going to get their supreme court to reverse all the rulings of the prior court on the illegality of 2020.
OTOH, Trump never led in the polling of those states in 2020.
No one who voted for him in 2020 isn't voting for him in 2024.
So the cheat is going to have to be off the charts

I think it's almost all of them. I'm 100% convinced that the impossibly overwhelming support that certain demographics show Democraps is not a function of actual people actually voting, but of massive vote-harvesting, GOtV bribery, and other shenanigans.
Blacks vote over 90% for Democraps no matter who, no matter what? Come on. You can't find 90% of people to agree that gonorrhoea is bad.

They cheated in 2020, and got away with it. Yeah, the cheating may have to be off the charts this fall, but those who would rise up and protest have been so demonized by the left and the MSM, who'll listen. The cheat will be epic, the Dems will win. Any protests will lead to calls of "insurrection" and jailtime for the participants.
This is how elections will be from now on. Well, at least until there is a true insurrection.

Lots of Democrats are highly paid bureaucrats who'll pony up a bit to show solidarity to the Party. Lots of oligarchs are aware that they became rich due to financing/shenanigans from the Party so they'll pony up some also.
The Republicans, on the other hand, have no agenda other than to screw over their voters. Frankly, I'm surprised they get ANY donations.

In an email to the university community, Dartmouth president Sian Beilock wrote that the decision to reimplement the standardized test was made in response to a faculty study which found that “standardized test scores are an important predictor of a student’s success in Dartmouth’s curriculum” regardless of a “student’s background or family income.”"

You're telling us that Russia can be defeated by Ukraine with a few billion dollars and 45 year old volunteer soldiers.
Fine. We accept your premise. But we're also supposed to simultaneously worry that defeating the same RUSSIA!!! will take some massive effort by well trained, well organized U.S. troops in their prime?

Opsec would indicate that discretion about what your plans to combat voter fraud will be. In some cases, non partisan groups are teh better play such as the folks that are combing through voter rolls for fake, dead, moved registrants. You then move at the local and state levels to have those registrants disqualified and removed from the rolls. Both Ohio and Florida moved decisively red after cleansing the voting rolls. Ken Blackwell gets the nod for Ohio and RDS for Florida.

Hundreds of reporters received a tour of the United Center Thursday as the DNC ramps up planning for the August convention.
Security? In part, “… We also have as our top priority, the safety and security of our delegates, our guests and all of the media covering them. We’re working very closely with the United States Secret Service, who coordinates all of the various federal state and local law enforcement agencies,” ..."
Money for healthcare, child care credits, education, unearned income, housing down payments, apartment subsidies...How do we get around those giveaways?
After the border bill passes, and one will, the great majority of illegals will be juggled around the nation according to education, class, 'public need,' etc.
By 2030, who will remember? And Eastern Europe will be the elitist nirvana.

People tend to worry about things that may never come to pass instead of the elephants right in front of them. Media to some extent, even conservative media, overloads the fear response by focusing on rumors while downplaying any positive news.
Worry about who Trump might pick as VP in August if a) he gets the nomination, b) he is still alive, c) not in jail, d) we don't get blasted by nukes or in WWIII in some way, e) we are not fighting in the streets via Civil Boogaloo II, and so onl.

Michelle being on every fashion magazine cover only proves how fashionable and beautiful she is. At least to a vast majority of women this seems to be effective brainswashing. As an example, I was part of a conversation where women were praising the exotic beauty of Zendaya. The guys were not having it. She's unremarkable at best. The women were shocked that the men didn't agree, since, well, everybody agrees Zendaya is the new beauty standard. The ease for which women (in general) can be herded, I still find astonishing.

Some blood cancers do, some don't. Although to have cancer in Britain is a much bigger problem than to have cancer in the US. Of course, as someone said, he'll probably get top of the line US treatment, not British treatments...

She's not aging well. Her looks are becoming "harder" and more exaggerated. She was better looking when she was younger and had "softer" features. Plus, in some recent pics, she's so emaciated as to be practically a skeleton.

Well, yes and no - cancer (especially blood ones and not tumor based ones) can start affecting your liver and kidneys, which would then cause the edema...well, you get the idea...blood cancers especially can cause body wide systematic problems that start to compound if you don't get treatment...

I'd just like to point out that unless the media can fool the voters into thinking the economy is going great guns, these bad polling numbers are likely to get worse for Biden as the election day deadline approaches.
Right now, Trump represents a muddled abstraction. Significant numbers of voters aren't aware that his nomination is a fait accompli. When it becomes broadly announced and accepted that Trump has actually secured the nomination, Trump's numbers will go up even more. When Trump nominates Ben Carson, Trump's numbers will jump up even more.
And finally, when Trump starts leveling criticism at Biden on numerous fronts, it will become the public's expectation that Biden answer those criticisms. Then we'll see landslide proportion polling.

Already here. And Philly thinks it's the UN thanks to FJB & his ilk.
The city developed non-profits years ago and brought in, for instance, Puerto Ricans en mass (then dumped them on smaller cities such as Allentown, Reading, Chester) plus, for decades, there has been a Liberian connection. Ergo, there's a substantial migrant population & many are not legal.
Eventually they're nudged into a few of the ring counties, especially following the Legislative Redistricting a handful of years ago. (And, it's back!) There's a Philly Africantown Project, btw.
Like Baltimore, the general population believes thoroughly believes ALL Black Lives Matter though they often fear for their own lives & stay out of the areas of most migrant populations other than, maybe, to grocery shop.
There's also a substantial increase of Black-Latino families in the city v. the Black-White families more common in the ring counties. (Yeah, the latter included anyway in the 2020 mostly peaceful protests.)
Philly learned dump & nudge from NYC & Newark, NJ.
