WSJ Poll: 41% Approve of Biden's Performance, 57% Disapprove

That is a big, big disapproval. Almost 60%.

Meanwhile, he's underwater with independents by 36%.

Only 30% of independent approve, vs. 66% who disapprove.

Michael McAdams
@M_McAdams
HOLY...
@JoeBiden
is -36 with independent voters in a new WSJ survey.
Only 30% approve and 66% disapprove.
Republicans hold massive leads on:
- Rebuilding the Economy
- Getting inflation under control
- Securing the border

WSJ article here, thankfully not behind a paywall for once.

How many Democrats are in this sample where Biden is at 41% approval despite being at 30% with independents and presumably even lower with Republicans?

They're claiming that something like 60% of the country are Democrats? That Independents plus Republicans together constitute a distinct minority?

And what would the Republicans' lead be like with a more reasonable sample?

More voters say they would back a Republican than a Democrat for Congress, 44% to 41%, if the election were held today, a lead that is within the poll's margin of error of plus or minus 2.5 percentage points.

See RedState for a list of issues the public wants the president and Congress to focus on -- immigration topping the list at 13%, followed by the economy at 11% and inflation at 10%.

Surprisingly, the situation in Afghanistan comes in at a whopping 0 percent, so while that travesty may have been a big reason for Biden's initial collapse some months ago, it appears that other issues are now at the forefront of most people's minds. That China doesn't register is a bit disconcerting, but given this is only a ranking of top issues, Americans very well could still have a decent understanding of the threat posed.
Past that, another gut punch for Democrats is delivered by abortion coming in at just 1 percent. For a few days, many on the left were bleating that the Supreme Court possibly gutting Roe v. Wade would represent a turnaround moment for their 2022 chances. That doesn't appear to be the case, a reality I discussed some days ago.

Yes this is a blow-off post. I was going to just post the animal post but I saw this poll drop.

99 >>Although I suspect the Left went full kamikaze with throwing the border open, knowing it would sink them for a few cycles, because they believe long-turn the Third World illegals will empower them in perpetuity, which is probably correct.

>>Biden is a throw-down president, in effect.

I actually believe this. Biden was always a corrupt dope but he is also a 50 year survivor in DC. Despite his obvious brain melt he has to know what he is doing is going to make him a hated, one term president.

He threw away his legacy, why? For what? There has to be more to this story. I remember during the campaign he claimed that he was a "transition president". The transition is to socialism.

He has to be getting paid for this in some obscene way.

The ones in the South Bay area seem to be a pretty equal mix of Hispanic (mostly Honduras), black and white. But they do tend to segregate on their own. The ones closer to me tend to be younger white trash druggies that like the more suburban/rural areas - I guess because they're more willing to travel to their favorite dumpsters.

123 And most homeless are men.

Some of it's drugs or alcohol. A lot of it is mental. (I know these are intersectional).

And a lot of them are men who have quit trying to remain a part of society after being confronted with their inability to deal or had their dreams ripped away over and over again. (and once more they are tied to the other things too)

And we as a society do not work too hard at having places and people who can help men and we as a society don't encourage that men seek that help. That men are supposed to take care of everyone else and when they fail they have fewer places to go to for help than women do.

179 Mitch is done - he knows it and so do the Senate Republicans - when your number two, Sen Thune, from a red state who could go on in perpetuity as a senator, quits...you're toast.

Thune will be a backbench after the 2022 elections and he knows it - and after you have sniffed the throne and know you'll never be voted in as majority leader - planting petunias in the back yard seems okay. This middle finger to his caucus by Mitch means he knows his days are numbered as well....

Fauci killed more people with an AIDS drug (AZT, I think) than the virus itself in the early Eighties. He knew full well the drug was quite dangerous, too, and kept promoting its use.

I suspect that this is the tradeoff that Schumer promised McConnell in return for the debt limit expansion--Schumer's financial industry buddies don't want a default nor probably the BBB bill.

McConnell is an old corrupt goat but even the Chamber of Commerce types may not want total economic devastation from accelerating inflation.

Well, there was Chavez and Venezuela has never been a stable country for a long time.

Plus most SA countries have always been strong men poltically as Leaders.

Many other countries in SA have gone the Commie route and failed and tried socialism and failed. There's always a few that get a lot of benefit from socialism and communism. Most of these countries are really run by a small group of wealthy families that influence the vote in a number of ways.

America has long been more like a 3rd world country than most people would like to admit. It's just become more out in the open of late.

197 I have been reading signs that the Democrats are getting ready to throw in the towel and give up on the BBB bill - they would do this by forgetting all the negotiating with Manchin and just putting it up for a vote as is at the end of the week. Manchin has said he'll vote against if they do that.

The behind the scenes reason for doing this will be that the Senate Dems are feeling that Biden's problems are dragging them all down, and that they need to forget him and save themselves. The BBB bill was supposed to be "Biden's Legacy", but they see Biden as lost now, and are getting ready to ditch him and do something else completely in the year they have until the midterms.

Not just newsweak, but other media pointed the same thing out. That they were either going to die a more horrific death and this might save them, or it was something unrelated, and all those running sores and missing skin probably had nothing to do with it.

266 I suspect that this is the tradeoff that Schumer promised McConnell in return for the debt limit expansion--Schumer's financial industry buddies don't want a default nor probably the BBB bill.

Posted by: whig at December 07, 2021 07:46 PM (9hXN1)

I rather doubt it - word is that Mitch and Thune whipped hard for the debt ceiling increase and got - nine - nine senators from their caucus to go along. The play was to force the Dems to use up all their parliamentary procedures on the debt ceiling increase before BBB, thus forcing a filibuster on BBB - but Mitch and Thine kept throwing a lifeline to the Dems to keep funding the government. Finally, his caucus had had enough, and abandon Mitch and this strategy. BBB will fall into next years' legislative session, and all the GOP caucus needs is a couple of Dem defectors and they'll get what they want.

Mitch chose poorly.

276 After the latest revelations, Mr. Fauci (I won't call him a Dr.) should've been investigated by now.

That he is not nor probably will be is a blot bigger than the steal of the vote in 2020.

At this point most anyone 20 years ago would now be running from the media stalking him outside his home and at court and the police HQ.

It's down right disappointing to say the least. And I hold Trump to account for him being there in the first place.

Umm - no - this is the towel throw in - the session has not officially ended, and this vote would have forced reconciliation if it had looked to go against the Dems. But Mitch pitched that he could still force the Dems to use up NEXT year's reconciliation and the GOP would have looked petty at Christmas not going along - he got himself and his number two, Thune, who is now suddenly quitting after the whip vote, and 7 others, and that's it....
